Understanding Breast Lift Surgery

A breast lift, medically known as mastopexy, is a surgical procedure designed to raise and reshape sagging breasts. Located just 25 minutes from Chicago in Munster, Indiana, Petrungaro Plastic Surgery offers comprehensive breast lift solutions for women experiencing changes in breast contour.

Why Consider a Breast Lift?

Women may seek a breast lift due to various factors that impact breast shape and volume:

• Pregnancy and breastfeeding
• Significant weight fluctuations
• Natural aging process
• Loss of skin elasticity
• Gravitational effects

Breast Lift Techniques

Dr. Jason Petrungaro employs multiple breast lift techniques tailored to individual patient needs:

• Anchor or Wise-Pattern Incision: For moderate to severe breast sagging
• Lollipop Lift: Ideal for mild to moderate sagging
• Donut Lift: Suitable for minimal sagging or tuberous breasts

Candidate Qualifications

Potential breast lift candidates typically:

• Are in overall good health
• Maintain a stable weight
• Do not smoke
• Have realistic surgical expectations
• Experience breast shape or volume changes

Procedure Details

Breast lift surgery typically takes 2-3 hours under general anesthesia. The procedure involves lifting and reshaping breast tissue, repositioning the nipple and areola, and removing excess skin to create a more youthful breast profile.

Recovery and Results

Patients can expect immediate results with continued improvement over several months. Following Dr. Petrungaro's post-operative instructions is crucial for optimal healing and maintaining surgical outcomes.

Combined Procedures

For patients seeking additional volume, a breast lift can be combined with breast augmentation to enhance both shape and size.
