The female body can experience a load of changes over time. This could be due to pregnancy, weight fluctuations, or even the natural changes that come with age. A part of the female body that goes through noticeable changes are the breasts. Not only can these changes be unwanted but they can also impact an individual’s self-esteem. Though people have the option to get breast implants, this surgery may be intimidating causing patients to lean more towards a breast lift procedure.
What is Breast Lift Surgery?
A breast lift surgery lives up to its name by being a surgery designed to lift the breasts. For patients with saggy breasts or breasts with nipples that face downward, a breast lift can possibly fix these issues resulting in perkier and more youthful-looking breasts. For patients who are certain that they want a breast lift, here’s what to expect.
Breast Lift process
Though the procedure involves different techniques that varies patient to patient, there are general steps that the surgeon takes. First the surgeon will mark the body to ensure that any incisions made are intentional and will warrant the patient’s desired results. The patient will then be given anesthesia which will most likely result in the patient being asleep during the surgery.
The surgeon will begin making incisions around the areola that will probably extend down the front of the breasts from the bottom of the areola to the crease. This incision may also extend along the sides of the areola. To avoid scarring, these incisions are intentionally placed in areas where the scars are less visible. The incision allows the surgeon to reshape and lift the breast as well as reposition the areolas so that the nipples are no longer facing downward. While reshaping the breasts, the surgeon may also remove excess skin which can reduce the size of the breasts.

Once the breasts are successfully lifted, reshaped, and the nipples are correctly positioned, the incisions are closed using stitches, sutures, skin adhesives, or even surgical tape. Because a breast lift can reduce the size of the breasts, it’s common for women to pair the procedure with abreast augmentation to also enlarge the breasts.
