Mastopexy (Breast Lift) Boston, MA | Dr. Ashley Boustany

Understanding Breast Lift Procedures

Breast lifts address the natural changes in breast appearance caused by age, weight fluctuations, pregnancy, and nursing. Unlike breast augmentation, this procedure focuses on reshaping and repositioning existing breast tissue to create a more youthful, perky silhouette without adding volume.

Ideal Candidates for Breast Lift

• Experiencing breast sagging or looseness
• Breasts appear flat or deflated
• Nipples pointing downward
• Post-pregnancy breast changes
• Breasts hanging lower than desired chest position

Personalized Surgical Approach

Dr. Boustany understands that each patient's breast anatomy is unique. The surgical technique is customized to individual needs, which may include:

• Repositioning nipples to the center of the breast mound
• Trimming excess skin
• Adjusting areola size
• Selecting appropriate incision styles

The Breast Lift Procedure

Performed at a state-of-the-art Boston hospital, the breast lift is an outpatient procedure conducted under local anesthesia with intravenous sedation. The surgical approach varies based on individual requirements, potentially involving incisions around the areola, vertically down to the breast crease, or horizontally along the breast crease.

Recovery and Healing

Post-surgical recovery involves mild swelling and bruising. Patients will need to wear surgical bras and follow specific care instructions. Most individuals can return to normal activities within a few days, though strenuous physical activities should be avoided for six weeks.
