Breast Lift (Mastopexy) Renton, WA | Wallace H.J. Chang M.D.

Understanding Breast Ptosis and Breast Lift Solutions

Breast laxity or sagging, known medically as breast ptosis, is a natural consequence of aging, pregnancy, childbirth, and breastfeeding. A breast lift, or mastopexy, professionally repositions sagging breast tissue to create a restored aesthetic shape and improved appearance.

Key Benefits of Breast Lift Surgery

• Repositioning breasts for a more youthful contour
• Resizing and repositioning nipple and areola
• Reversing ptosis caused by pregnancy and nursing
• Potential combination with breast augmentation for enhanced results

Ideal Breast Lift Candidates

Suitable candidates for breast lift surgery typically demonstrate breast sagging, drooping nipples, and are in good overall health. Patients should be finished having children and willing to accept minimal scarring to achieve a more youthful breast shape.

Breast Lift Procedure Process

Surgical Technique

During the procedure, surgeons create strategic incisions allowing breast tissue repositioning. The specific technique varies based on individual aesthetic goals and will be thoroughly discussed during the initial consultation.

Recovery and Expectations

Recovery from a breast lift typically spans 2-6 weeks. Patients will need to wear compression garments to manage swelling. While surgeons minimize scarring, some visible marks should be anticipated.

Long-Term Results and Considerations

Breast lift results can last many years with proper aftercare and a healthy lifestyle. However, future pregnancies and breastfeeding may alter surgical outcomes, so timing the procedure is crucial.

The surgical team at Wallace H.J. Chang M.D. recommends a personalized consultation to determine the most appropriate breast lift approach for individual needs and aesthetic goals.
