A breast lift, also known as a mastopexy, is a surgical procedure that involves a combination of techniques to elevate the breasts higher on the chest wall and reposition the nipple to a natural, youthful position at the front of the breast.
The individual patient determines the specific type of procedure. The placement of the incisions is based on the extent of the sagging. While incisions are commonly made around the nipple area, in cases of severe sagging, an incision from the center of the nipple to the base of the breast may be necessary.
Like any invasive procedure, some swelling can be expected. Elevating your head with extra pillows or a foam wedge while sleeping can help reduce swelling. Staying well-hydrated and avoiding salty foods during the healing process is important. By diligently following our post-operative instructions, you can expect a quick and relatively worry-free recovery with minimal swelling.
While the results last a long time, you might notice some loosening of the skin as time goes on. Taking good care of your skin can help it stay firm and healthy. Usually, the results can last for many years before needing additional procedures.
The goal of the procedure is to create symmetrical, round, and naturally full-looking breasts. However, minor imperfections in matched breasts may arise due to slight variations in the chest wall structure, ribs, or spine.
Yes, at Athēnix, breast augmentation and lift procedures are commonly performed. Your surgeon will review your options during your consultation.
Yes, but we recommend waiting to have breast surgery until you are done having children because of the impact of pregnancy and breastfeeding on the shape and characteristics of the breast. If the nipple structure is left intact, breastfeeding is possible, but other variables that could affect breastfeeding may occur during the procedure.
