What a Breast Lift Achieves

A breast lift or mastopexy is a procedure that raises and reshapes

sagging breasts by tightening the skin envelope lifting the nipple

areola complex and redistributing breast tissue to restore upper pole

fullness Unlike pure augmentation the main aim is to improve shape

and position rather than simply add volume although an implant can

be added in the same sitting when more fullness is desired[15]

Typical Candidates

Women often seek a breast lift after pregnancies breastfeeding or

signicant weight change when breasts appear deated nipples point

downward or fall below the inframammary fold and upper chest

appears at in clothing Ideal candidates have completed family

planning maintain a stable weight and understand that mastopexy

reshapes existing tissue but does not prevent future changes with

ageing or further pregnancies

Surgical Planning and Technique

Depending on the degree of ptosis mastopexy may use a periareolar

pattern around the nipple a vertical pattern down from the areola or

an anchor pattern for more extensive droop The surgeon removes

redundant skin reshapes the internal breast tissue into a rmer

mound and moves the nipple areola complex to a more central

position on the breast mound When combined with implants theprosthesis is usually placed in a subpectoral pocket before nal skin

tailoring to achieve the desired projection and cleavage

Recovery and Durability of Results

Most patients stay one night in hospital wear a support bra

continuously for several weeks and resume desk work in about one

week depending on comfort Sleeping on the back avoiding heavy

lifting and gradually increasing arm movement help protect the

repair during early healing Results are long lasting especially when

weight remains stable and good support garments are used although

some natural settling over time is expected
