Breast lift surgery helps patients achieve a more attractive, youthful shape and contour, and better proportioned areolas. Often, breast augmentation surgery is performed in combination with mastopexy, if enlargement or additional breast fullness is desired. THE SURGERY Breast lift surgery takes approximately one to three hours and is performed on an outpatient basis at our state-of-the-art, fully accredited surgical suite or at another licensed, accredited outpatient surgical facility or at a hospital, under local or general anesthesia. While Dr. Messa may provide several options for the placement of the incisions required for the breast lift procedure to accommodate your individual needs, generally the incisions are placed around the nipple-areolar complex along the vertical midline of the breast, and if necessary, in the crease underneath the breast. During breast lift surgery, excess skin is removed from around the nipple-areolar complex and from the bottom of the breast. The nipple-areolar complex is then repositioned higher. The insertion of a breast implant, as well, may or may not be advisable during the procedure depending on your individual breast size, shape and desired outcome. THE RECOVERY Since breast lift surgery is performed on an outpatient basis, patients go home in a bra with only light dressings over the incision lines. The bra is worn as a “dressing” for two to three weeks,sutures are placed beneath the skin and dissolve on their own. Initial discomfort or pain is controlled with oral medications. Light activities may be resumed in seven to ten days; however, you should avoid strenuous exercise for several weeks and should be extremely gentle with your breasts for at least four to six weeks following surgery. For sagging, breasts, due to pregnancy, weight loss or simply aging, a breast lift may just be the answer.
