Breast Lift Orland Park, IL | Chicago Institute of Plastic Surgery

Understanding Breast Lift Surgery

Loss of skin elasticity, gravity, weight fluctuations, pregnancy, and breast-feeding can significantly impact breast shape and firmness. A breast lift procedure helps restore a more youthful breast contour for patients seeking to improve breast positioning and appearance.

Ideal Candidates for Breast Lift

Patients may be good breast lift candidates if they experience:

• Pendulous breasts of satisfactory size
• Breasts lacking substance or firmness
• Nipples and areolas pointing downward, positioned below the breast crease

Surgical Technique Options

Chicago Institute of Plastic Surgery offers customized breast lift techniques based on individual anatomy. Incision options include:

• Crescent incision
• Peri-areolar/Doughnut incision
• Lollipop/Vertical incision
• Anchor incision

Procedure Details

The breast lift procedure typically involves removing excess skin, repositioning the nipple and areola, and reshaping breast tissue. Surgeons utilize minimally invasive techniques to minimize scarring while achieving optimal aesthetic results.

Recovery and Results

Most patients can return to work within a few days and resume normal activities within several weeks. Results include firmer, more uplifted breasts with enhanced nipple and areola positioning.

Long-Term Expectations

Breast lift results are long-lasting, though natural aging, weight changes, and pregnancy can impact breast appearance over time. Maintaining a stable weight helps preserve surgical outcomes.
