What is Breast Lift?
Breast Lift, also known as mastopexy, is a cosmetic surgical procedure that aims to reshape and lift sagging or drooping breasts. It involves removing excess skin and tightening the breast tissue to achieve a more youthful, uplifted, and aesthetically pleasing appearance.
Why is Breast Lift performed?
Breast Lift is commonly performed to correct breast ptosis, which is the medical term for sagging or drooping breasts. Factors such as aging, pregnancy, breastfeeding, weight loss, and genetics can contribute to breast sagging. Breast Lift surgery addresses these issues by lifting the breasts to a more youthful position, improving breast shape and firmness.
How is Breast Lift surgery performed?
Breast Lift surgery is typically performed under general anesthesia. The surgeon makes incisions on the breast tissue and skin, usually around the areola, underneath the breast, and sometimes vertically. Excess skin and tissues are removed, and the breast tissue is reshaped and repositioned. The nipple-areola complex is also elevated. The incisions are then closed with sutures.
Will there be visible scars after Breast Lift surgery?
Answer: It is normal to have some scarring after Breast Lift surgery; however, these scars tend to fade over time and can usually be concealed beneath clothing. Surgeons aim to place incisions in inconspicuous areas whenever possible. Proper wound care and scar management techniques can help minimize the visibility of scars over time.
