Understanding Breast Lift Surgery

A breast lift, medically known as mastopexy, is a surgical procedure designed to reshape and elevate sagging breasts. The surgery addresses breast ptosis by removing excess skin, repositioning breast tissue, and restoring a more youthful breast contour.

Ideal Candidates for Breast Lift

  • Adults over 18 years of age
  • Individuals with significant breast sagging
  • Patients with stretched or pendulous breast tissue
  • Women seeking to restore breast shape after pregnancy or weight changes

Surgical Techniques for Breast Lift in Carmel

Dr. Christine Kelley employs multiple mastopexy techniques tailored to individual patient anatomy and aesthetic goals. The specific approach depends on the degree of breast ptosis and desired surgical outcome.

Breast Lift Procedure Options

  • Periareolar lift (limited incision)
  • Vertical lift (lollipop incision)
  • Anchor pattern lift (most comprehensive reshaping)

Recovery and Surgical Expectations

Breast lift surgery typically involves a recovery period of 1-2 weeks, with patients advised to limit physical activities. Surgical techniques are designed to minimize scarring and optimize aesthetic results specific to each patient's unique anatomy.

Post-Surgical Considerations

  • Initial recovery: 7-10 days
  • Return to normal activities: 4-6 weeks
  • Final results visible: 3-6 months post-surgery

Dr. Kelly has taken care of me since 2006. She is very thorough and thoughtful with her care. I don’t know what I would have done without her.

I am leaving this review as a family member! I think it’s so important to get that perspective too. Dr Kelly was amazing not only with her knowledge but also caring. My mom had an implant removed and also the other breast. She was very thorough and the staff was great with communication as well. I was at the appointments and while she spoke to my mom and told her things, she was great about including me as well. She made sure all my concerns were addressed and didn’t dismiss me. And immediately after surgery, she made sure I understood the directions for care even though it was all on the papers we received. My mom had a potential complication after the surgery that was no one’s fault and she went the extra mile to make sure my mom had proper care and if we had needed a referral, she was all over it!! She even called her personally to check in on her repeatedly. Couldn’t ask for better.

Good morning ladies, Just an update, I explanted with Dr. Christine Kelly in Indianapolis on July 9, 2024 . In 2005 I had breast cancer and left breast had to have a mastectomy and I chose to get an implant. They say hindsight is 20/20 and if I had it to do all over again back then , I would never have had that implant put in. Needless to say as the years went on the implant became more and more burdensome and painful. Didn’t have good insurance so I just had to deal with it for years until I could get better insurance. But here’s the testimony I had both the implant removed and mastectomy on the right side and went flat. Dr Kelly was absolutely fabulous! The first one I had in 2005 was a horrible ordeal, very sick, and slow recovery. But this one with Dr Kelly although way more intense, and way more involved, the implant was scrunched up under the muscle and pushing under my arm muscles. I was never sick for a moment ! I had very, very minimal discomfort And almost no pain at all. No narcotics, mainly Tylenol and a couple of tramadol. Right drain was out in 4 days, left one where the implant was more invasive was 9 days. I am now nine days out and went in for my follow up appointment. Everything looks great pathology report was great and I’m just thrilled to have this done. Sorry for such a long post, but I just had to let everyone know how good God has been to me and what a great Doctor Dr Kelly is and so glad I chose her even if it was a 4-1/2 hour drive away from where I live in Ky, it was well worth it!!! Hope all you ladies have as good of an experiences I did. God bless and prayers for all.
