Breast Lift Nashville, TN | Tierney Plastic Surgery: Brian P. Tierney, MD

Understanding Breast Lift Surgery in Nashville

Dr. Tierney has helped hundreds of women restore higher, perkier breasts through mastopexy, a surgical breast lift procedure. At his Nashville practice, he creates a full, firm breast shape and elevated position that mimics youthful breast contours. While sagging breasts are a natural part of aging, a breast lift can help women regain personal comfort and confidence.

What is a Breast Lift?

A breast lift is a surgical procedure designed to lift and reshape breasts and nipples. This procedure addresses multiple aesthetic concerns:

• Pendulous or sagging breasts
• Loss of breast firmness
• Downward-pointing nipples
• Nipples extending below the breast crease
• Asymmetrical breast appearance

Surgical Approach

Breast lift surgery is typically performed under general anesthesia as an outpatient procedure. Dr. Tierney utilizes various incision techniques depending on the patient's specific needs, including doughnut, lollipop, and anchor incisions.

Surgical Technique

During the procedure, Dr. Tierney removes excessive loose skin, elevates and reshapes breast tissue, and repositions the nipple and areola. The nipples remain attached to preserve sensation and function, ensuring natural results.

Recovery and Results

Recovery involves managing initial discomfort with prescribed medication and wearing a specialized surgical bra. Most patients return to light activities within a week. Results can be long-lasting with proper care, maintaining breast elevation and shape for years.

Customized Breast Enhancement

Patients can combine a breast lift with augmentation if they desire both improved position and increased volume. Dr. Tierney provides personalized consultations to develop the optimal surgical approach for each patient's unique aesthetic goals.
