Understanding Breast Lift Surgery

Breast lift surgery, or mastopexy, is a specialized plastic surgery procedure designed to raise and reshape sagging breasts. Women experience breast changes due to multiple factors including aging, genetics, and gravity that can impact breast volume and skin elasticity.

Breast Lift Candidacy and Considerations

The ideal breast lift candidate is a physically healthy woman seeking improvement in breast appearance. Patients should have realistic expectations and understand that results are not permanent. Factors like breast size, skin elasticity, and future pregnancy plans can influence surgical outcomes.

Complementary Procedure Options

For patients with significant volume loss, combining a breast lift with augmentation can restore shape, height, and firmness, creating a more youthful breast profile. The goal is to enhance self-confidence through personalized surgical approaches.

Surgical Techniques and Approach

Dr. Kirk offers multiple breast lift techniques tailored to individual patient needs. Options range from minimal incision techniques like periareolar lifts to more comprehensive approaches such as vertical or anchor-style lifts, depending on the extent of breast sagging and skin excess.

Recovery and Expectations

Patients can anticipate a comprehensive surgical experience, with the procedure typically lasting approximately 3.5 hours. Recovery involves wearing a specialized surgical bra and avoiding strenuous activities during the initial healing period.

Long-Term Results

While breast lift results are transformative, they are not permanent. Patients typically enjoy enhanced breast contours for approximately 10 years. Maintaining a stable weight and healthy lifestyle can help prolong surgical outcomes.
