Also known as a mastopexy, a breast lift refines the breasts to raise and reshape sagging and drooping tissues. Breast lifts are common among women who are comfortable with their breast size but unhappy with the lack of perkiness and sagging of the breast tissues. Brand Surgical Institute is led by surgical experts who discuss your specific concerns and goals to curate personalized surgical plans that restore your confidence.
How can a Breast Lift help you?
How Does A Breast Lift Work?
A breast lift is a surgical procedure that aims to improve the breast’s perkiness and projection. If you have sagging or drooping breast tissues, the surgeon creates strategic incisions to trim away excess skin and reposition the breasts in an upright position. If necessary, the surgeon may also reposition the nipples into the ideal position or reduce the areola’s size, making your breast look firm, taut, and youthful.
Breast Lift Surgery Can Treat The Following:
- Genetically misshapen, tubular, or oblong breasts
- Post-pregnancy, aged, or naturally droopy breasts
- Enlarged nipple areolas
- Loss of breast volume from weight loss
What Are Your breast lift options?
Brand Surgical Institute performs a thorough evaluation to curate highly personalized surgical plans. During your consultation, your surgeon will perform a breast exam, evaluate your skin and breast tissue, take your measurements, and discuss your best surgical options. A breast lift can be performed using numerous methods and techniques — the surgical technique depends on the incision style, the degree of lift, and whether you need areola changes.
There are a variety of techniques used for women interested in breast lifts. Some women desire improvement in the appearance of their nipple areola, and this can be performed at the time of the lift by reducing the size of the areola.
The length of the breast lift incision depends on the proportion of excess skin to breast volume. The more lifting the breast tissue and nipple require, the longer the lift incision required.
From the least aggressive to the most aggressive lift, the surgical techniques include the pericentric (around the nipple), lollipop (around the nipple and a vertical component), and anchor (around the nipple and a vertical and horizontal incision). The decision for the appropriate lift depends on a variety of factors, including the breast shape, the extent of sagging skin, breast tissue versus glandular fat, and the elasticity of the skin.

FAQ
What Happens During Breast Lift Surgery?
Your surgery is performed as an outpatient procedure in our accredited surgical facility under general anesthesia. The surgeon makes an incision (pericentric, lollipop, or anchor) and trims away excess skin tissues. The nipple and areola are also repositioned in a more natural-looking position, following which the size of the areola might be reduced to enhance the proportions. The procedure usually concludes within 2 hours, following which you return home.
What Is Recovery Like After Breast Lift Surgery?
You will experience soreness, discomfort, swelling, and bruising around the incisions for a few days. You will also have to wear a compression garment or supportive bra for a few weeks to reduce swelling and speed up the healing process. Most patients can resume their daily activities and work within 1 to 2 weeks, but strenuous workouts should be avoided for 6 to 8 weeks. You should also avoid lifting heavy objects.
