What is a breast lift?

Elevate Your Confidence

A breast lift, also known as mastopexy, is a surgical procedure designed to elevate and reshape breasts that have lost their youthful firmness and perkiness. It can address concerns like:

  • Sagging breasts due to pregnancy, weight fluctuations, or aging
  • Drooping breast contours
  • Stretched, elongated, or low-sitting nipples

Dr. Milind Kachare will work with you to create a personalized plan that may involve different techniques depending on your specific needs.

What is the breast lift procedure like?

A Natural-Looking Lift

Breast lift procedures are typically performed on an outpatient basis under local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia.

Your journey begins with a personalized consultation with Dr. Kachare. You will discuss your breast lift goals and receive a treatment plan tailored to you.

Surgery involves reducing excess skin and breast tissue to elevate the breast on the chest wall and restore a more rounded contour. Depending on your goals and anatomy, Dr. Kachare may also reposition the nipple and areola to a higher, more youthful location, enhancing the overall appearance of the breasts.

The specifics will vary based on your chosen technique, but generally, there are several common incision locations for a breast lift, each tailored to the degree of sagging and the desired outcome:

  • Crescent lift: Uses a small incision along the upper half of the areola. Suitable for a minimal enhancement.
  • Peri-areolar or "donut" lift: Involves an incision around the entire circumference of the areola. Provides moderate lift and minimal scarring.
  • Vertical or "lollipop" lift: Combines a circular incision around the areola with a vertical incision down to the breast crease. Ideal for moderate sagging.
  • Inverted T or "anchor" lift: Adds a horizontal incision along the breast crease to the vertical and areolar incisions. Offers substantial reshaping and lift for extensive sagging.

Each technique aims to balance minimal scarring with optimal results, tailored to the individual's anatomy and aesthetic goals.

What conditions does a breast lift address?

Beauty Meets Comfort

A breast lift is ideal for women who are bothered by:

  • Breasts that have lost their shape and appear saggy or droopy
  • Stretched or elongated nipples pointing downwards
  • Uneven breasts

Breast Lift Recovery

Unveiling Your Results

Recovery from a breast lift will vary depending on the extent of the procedure.

It usually involves taking about a week off work and avoiding strenuous activities for 4-6 weeks. You can expect some swelling, bruising, and discomfort for the first few days. Dr. Kachare will provide detailed instructions on post-operative care, including wearing a compression garment and avoiding strenuous activity. He will check your healing at post-operative visits and remain available to answer questions at any time.

Breast Lift Results

Enter a New Era of Beauty and Confidence

You will begin to see initial results within a few weeks, with continued improvement over the following months as swelling subsides. Although breast tissue will continue to age like the rest of your body, the final results of your breast lift can be enjoyed for many years by maintaining a stable weight and healthy lifestyle.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does the procedure take?

A breast lift surgery typically takes about 2 to 3 hours, depending on the complexity of the procedure and whether other procedures, such as breast augmentation, are being performed simultaneously.

Will a breast lift leave scars?

Yes, a breast lift will leave scars, though their location and extent depend on the surgical technique used. Dr. Kachare aims to place incisions in less noticeable areas and minimize scarring, and scars typically fade over time. Scar management techniques like the use of silicone sheets can improve the final appearance of the incision lines.

Can a breast lift be combined with other procedures?

Yes, a breast lift can be combined with breast augmentation (implants) to achieve the desired size and shape. Combining procedures can enhance overall results but may also extend recovery time.

What are the potential risks and complications?

Like any surgery, a breast lift has potential risks, including infection, bleeding, adverse reactions to anesthesia, changes in nipple or breast sensation, asymmetry, and scarring. Choosing an experienced plastic surgeon like Dr. Kachare can help minimize these risks.

How much does a breast lift cost?

The cost of a breast lift varies depending on the complexity of the procedure. We will provide a detailed quote during your consultation, which will include surgical fees, anesthesia, and facility costs. Insurance typically does not cover cosmetic breast lift surgery.
