Breast Lift Leawood, KS | Swanson Center for Cosmetic Surgery

Understanding Breast Lift Surgery

Breast lifts, or mastopexy, are surgical procedures designed to restore breast shape and elevation for women experiencing sagging due to aging, pregnancy, hormonal changes, or significant weight loss. The procedure helps correct drooping breasts and repositions the nipple to a more youthful position.

Who Needs a Breast Lift?

Women might consider a breast lift if they experience:

• Significant breast sagging beyond natural aging
• Nipples pointing downward
• Loss of breast volume and shape
• Asymmetrical breast positioning

Breast Lift Techniques

At Swanson Center, we specialize in advanced vertical mastopexy techniques that minimize scarring and provide optimal breast reshaping. Our approach focuses on:

• Removing excess skin
• Repositioning breast tissue
• Elevating nipple position
• Creating a more youthful breast contour

Breast Lift and Augmentation: Comprehensive Approach

Many patients benefit from combining breast lift with implants to restore upper pole fullness and achieve their desired breast appearance. This combined procedure, known as augmentation/mastopexy, provides comprehensive breast rejuvenation.

Benefits of Breast Lift Surgery

• Improved breast shape and projection
• Elevated nipple position
• Enhanced self-confidence
• Proportional body contours
• Option to reduce areola size

Recovery and Expectations

Breast lift recovery typically involves minimal discomfort, with most patients returning to work within 6-7 days. Our surgical techniques prioritize patient comfort and optimal healing, utilizing advanced anesthesia and precise surgical methods.

Potential Considerations

Patients should understand that scarring is inevitable, though our vertical technique minimizes visible scarring. Factors like genetics and individual healing processes can influence scar appearance.

Patient Candidacy

Ideal candidates for breast lift surgery are in good overall health, maintain stable weight, and have realistic expectations about surgical outcomes. A comprehensive consultation with Dr. Swanson will determine individual suitability.
