Breast Lift San Antonio, TX | Alamo Plastic Surgery - Dr. William Albright, M.D.

Understanding Breast Lift Surgery

A breast lift, medically known as mastopexy, is a surgical procedure designed to raise and reshape sagging breasts. Ideal for patients seeking a more youthful breast appearance, this procedure addresses drooping caused by aging, pregnancy, breastfeeding, or significant weight changes.

Breast Lift Techniques

Dr. Albright offers multiple breast lift techniques tailored to individual patient needs:

• Crescentic Breast Lift: For minimal sagging
• Periareolar Breast Lift: Addresses mild to moderate drooping
• Lollipop Breast Lift: Corrects moderate to severe ptosis
• Anchor Breast Lift: Comprehensive reshaping for significant sagging

Procedure Details

During a breast lift, excess skin is removed, breast tissue is reshaped, and the nipple-areola complex is repositioned to create a firmer, more aesthetically pleasing contour. The procedure is typically performed under general anesthesia and involves carefully planned incisions to minimize visible scarring.

Ideal Candidates for Breast Lift in San Antonio

Candidates for breast lift surgery typically include women who:

• Experience significant breast sagging
• Have stable body weight
• Are in good overall health
• Have realistic expectations about surgical outcomes

Recovery and Results

Patients can expect a recovery period of approximately 4 weeks, with gradual resumption of normal activities. Most individuals can return to light activities within two weeks, with full results becoming apparent after 2-4 months as swelling subsides and tissues settle.

Additional Considerations

Dr. Albright may recommend combining a breast lift with fat transfer or augmentation to achieve optimal breast volume and shape. Each procedure is customized to meet the patient's unique aesthetic goals.
