Breast Lift Metairie, LA | the MODERN Plastic Surgery & Medspa

Understanding Breast Lift Surgery in Southern Louisiana

Weight loss, breastfeeding, gravity, and aging can cause breasts to droop and lose their youthful appearance. At the MODERN Plastic Surgery & Medspa, board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Jules Walters specializes in breast lift procedures that restore rounder, elevated breasts and renewed confidence.

What is a Breast Lift?

A breast lift, or mastopexy, is a sophisticated surgical procedure that rejuvenates breasts by removing excess skin and surgically tightening remaining breast tissues. Recent American Society of Plastic Surgeons statistics reveal a nearly 70% increase in demand since 2000, highlighting the procedure's effectiveness.

Ideal Candidates for Breast Lift

Prime candidates for a breast lift include women experiencing:

• Significant breast sagging (ptosis)
• Nipples pointing downward
• Breasts falling below the natural breast crease
• Loss of breast firmness due to aging, pregnancy, or weight fluctuations

Breast Lift Techniques

Dr. Walters offers multiple incision techniques to minimize scarring and achieve optimal results:

• Inverted T (Anchor) Incision:
• Lollipop Incision:
• Concentric (Donut) Incision:
• Crescent Incision:

Combining Procedures

Many patients opt to combine their breast lift with implants or fat transfer to enhance volume and shape. Dr. Walters will recommend the most appropriate technique during your personalized consultation.

Recovery and Expectations

Breast lift recovery typically requires about one week for returning to desk work and light activities. Most swelling and bruising subside within a week, with final results developing over several weeks.
