WHAT IS BREAST LIFT?




A Breast Lift is a cosmetic surgery procedure that aims to reshape and lift sagging breasts. It can also reduce the size of the areola, the darker skin around the nipple. A Breast Lift can improve the appearance and self-confidence of women who are unhappy with their breast shape or size.

ABOUT THE BREAST LIFT PROCEDURE



A Breast Lift procedure is usually done under general anesthesia, which means you will be asleep and not feel any pain. The surgery can take 2 to 3 hours, depending on the extent of the lift and whether you are having other procedures done at the same time, such as breast augmentation or reduction.

The surgeon will make incisions on your breasts, remove excess skin and tissue, and reposition your nipples and areolae. The surgeon will then close the incisions with stitches, tape, or glue. You will have scars on your breasts, but they will fade over time and can be hidden by bras and swimsuits.

BREAST LIFT RECOVERY



After the surgery, you will need to wear a special bra or bandage to support your breasts and reduce swelling. You may also have drains in your breasts to remove fluid and blood. You will be given pain medication and antibiotics to prevent infection. You will need to rest and avoid strenuous activities for several weeks. You will also need to follow your surgeon’s instructions on how to care for your incisions, change your dressings, and when to return for follow-up visits.

It may take several months for your breasts to settle into their new shape and position. You may experience some changes in sensation, numbness, or tingling in your nipples and breasts, but this is usually temporary. You may also notice some swelling, bruising, or asymmetry in your breasts, but these will improve over time.

ARE YOU THE RIGHT CANDIDATE FOR A BREAST LIFT?



A Breast Lift may be a good option for you if:


  • You are in good physical and mental health and have realistic expectations.
  • You are bothered by sagging, drooping, or elongated breasts that have lost their shape and volume.
  • Your nipples point downward or fall below your breast creases.
  • Your areolae are enlarged or stretched out of proportion to your breasts.
  • You have one breast that is lower than the other.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

At Ciplastic, the starting cost for a Breast Lift procedure is $5,700 usd. Your final cost will depend on your specific individual needs.

As with any surgery, a Breast Lift has some risks and complications, such as bleeding, infection, poor wound healing, scarring, pain, swelling, bruising, hematoma, seroma, changes in sensation, numbness, tingling, asymmetry, loss of nipple or areola, implant rupture or displacement (if combined with breast augmentation), and dissatisfaction with the results. You can reduce the risks by choosing a qualified and experienced plastic surgeon, following the preoperative and postoperative instructions, and reporting any signs of problems to your surgeon.

The results of a Breast Lift are not permanent, as your breasts will continue to change with age, gravity, weight fluctuations, pregnancy, and breastfeeding. You can expect your breasts to sag again over time, but not as much as they would without the surgery. You can prolong the results of your Breast Lift by maintaining a stable weight, wearing a supportive bra, avoiding smoking, and protecting your skin from sun damage. You may need a revision surgery in the future to restore your breast shape and position.
