What is a Breast Lift?

A breast lift offers women the option of lifting and reshaping the breast without using breast implants. This procedure provides a more natural approach for women wanting to modify their breast shape without introducing artificial implants.

Breast Lift Procedure Details

The breast lift involves removing excess skin and tightening surrounding tissue to create fullness, volume, and support to the natural breast. This surgical technique helps restore a more youthful and elevated breast contour.

Surgical Location and Facility

In Pittsburgh, breast lift surgery is performed in a state-of-the-art outpatient surgery center, fully licensed by the Pennsylvania Department of Health. The facility ensures patient safety and optimal surgical outcomes.

Breast Lift with Implants Option

Patients can choose between a standalone breast lift or a procedure combining lifting with implants. During a private consultation, surgeons will discuss implant type, shape, and positioning based on the patient's natural breast condition and desired lift.

Surgical Technique and Scarring

A typical breast lift requires three incisions to reshape the breast. However, usually only one vertical incision remains visible after complete healing. Surgical scars typically fade to a pencil-thin line that most patients find minimally concerning compared to the procedure's aesthetic results.

Recovery and Expectations

Patients may experience varying degrees of post-surgical discomfort, effectively managed through prescribed pain medication. A surgical compression garment is worn for one month to reduce post-operative swelling. Most patients return to work within one week, with heavy lifting restrictions lasting up to eight weeks.
