Understanding Breast Lift Surgery
Gravity, pregnancy, and weight fluctuations can cause significant changes in breast appearance. Breast lift surgery, or mastopexy, addresses sagging breasts by removing excess skin and repositioning breast tissue to create a more youthful and elevated contour.
Ideal Candidates for Breast Lift
- Patients experiencing breast sagging due to pregnancy, genetics, or aging
- Women with breast drooping too significant for implants alone
- Individuals with enlarged nipple-areolar complexes
Procedure Overview
Dr. Fulks performs breast lift surgery as an outpatient procedure under sedation or general anesthesia. The technique involves carefully designed incisions around the nipple-areolar complex and beneath the breast crease. The procedure reshapes breast tissue, repositions the nipple, and removes excess skin to achieve a more aesthetically pleasing result.
Surgical Technique
- Incisions strategically placed to minimize visible scarring
- Nipple-areolar complex repositioned to a higher, more natural position
- Excess skin removed and breast tissue reshaped
- Optional implant insertion may be recommended
Recovery and Healing
Post-surgical recovery involves wearing a supportive bra for 2-3 weeks. Patients can typically resume light activities within 7-10 days. Initial discomfort is managed with oral medication, and sutures are typically removed within 2-3 weeks.
Expected Results
- More elevated and youthful breast contour
- Improved breast symmetry
- Repositioned nipple-areolar complex
