Understanding Breast Lift Surgery

A breast lift, medically known as mastopexy, is a specialized surgical procedure designed to raise and firm the breasts by removing excess skin and tightening surrounding tissue. This technique reshapes and supports the breast contour, restoring a more youthful appearance.

Why Patients Consider a Breast Lift

Breast appearance can change significantly due to various factors, including:

• Pregnancy
• Breastfeeding
• Weight fluctuations
• Aging
• Gravity
• Hereditary factors

Ideal Candidates for Breast Lift

Patients best suited for breast lift surgery typically meet the following criteria:

• Physically healthy and maintaining stable weight
• Non-smokers
• Have realistic expectations
• Experience breast sagging or loss of shape
• Have nipples falling below the breast crease

Surgical Technique Considerations

The specific breast lift technique is determined by multiple factors, including breast size, shape, skin quality, and the degree of sagging. Hanemann Plastic Surgery customizes each procedure to achieve optimal results for individual patients.

Recovery and Results

Patients can expect initial recovery to take 5-7 days. The final results will continue to develop over several months as breast shape and position settle. Maintaining a stable weight and healthy lifestyle can help preserve surgical outcomes.
