Understanding Breast Mastopexy in Boulder

A breast mastopexy, commonly known as a breast lift, is a surgical procedure designed to raise and reshape breasts that have lost their firmness and shape due to factors like aging, pregnancy, or significant weight changes. Mile High Plastic Surgery specializes in restoring breast contour and enhancing patient confidence through precise surgical techniques.

Who is an Ideal Candidate for Breast Lift?

Ideal candidates for a breast lift procedure include patients who:

• Are in good overall health
• Have realistic expectations about surgical outcomes
• Exhibit breast sagging or loss of volume
• Are not currently pregnant or nursing
• Have stable body weight

Important Candidacy Considerations

Patients who smoke or are exposed to secondhand smoke may not be suitable candidates. Smoking can significantly impair wound healing and increase surgical complications.

Breast Lift Surgical Technique

Mile High Plastic Surgery employs multiple surgical techniques tailored to individual patient anatomy. The most common approach involves three strategic incisions:

• Around the areola
• From nipple to breast crease
• Along the breast crease

Enhancing Breast Lift Results

Patients can combine breast lift with augmentation to increase breast volume and improve overall shape. Dr. Roesner will recommend the most appropriate technique during your consultation.

Procedure Details and Expectations

The breast lift procedure typically involves removing excess skin, repositioning the nipple and areola, and reshaping breast tissue. General anesthesia is most commonly used to ensure patient comfort throughout the surgery.

Recovery and Post-Operative Care

Patients can expect initial recovery to take 1-2 weeks, with full healing occurring over several months. Following post-operative instructions carefully is crucial for optimal results and minimizing potential complications.

Potential Procedure Outcomes

• Improved breast shape and firmness
• Elevated breast position
• Enhanced symmetry
• Restored youthful breast contour

Long-Term Considerations

While a breast lift can provide significant aesthetic improvements, natural aging, weight fluctuations, and future pregnancies may impact long-term results.
