Understanding Breast Lift (Mastopexy) Surgery

A breast lift, medically known as mastopexy, is a surgical procedure designed to elevate and reshape sagging breasts while repositioning nipples to a more aesthetically pleasing location. Multiple factors can contribute to breast ptosis, including pregnancy, breastfeeding, significant weight loss, and natural aging processes affecting skin and breast tissue.

Personalized Surgical Approach

Reilley Ann Ford MD provides comprehensive breast lift consultations to understand each patient's unique aesthetic goals. The surgical strategy is tailored to individual needs, potentially incorporating additional techniques such as:

• Breast implant placement for increased volume
• Areola size reduction
• Nipple repositioning

Ptosis Evaluation and Surgical Planning

Breast sagging (ptosis) is professionally graded by measuring the nipple's position relative to the inframammary fold. The severity of ptosis directly influences the surgical technique and potential incision patterns. Minor lifting requires fewer incisions, while more significant sagging necessitates more extensive surgical intervention.

Surgical Details and Recovery

Breast lift is an outpatient procedure performed under general anesthesia. The recovery period is relatively quick, with patients typically returning to full activity within a few weeks. Patients receive comprehensive guidance on incision and scar management to optimize surgical outcomes.

Potential Breast Lift Considerations

• Performed under general anesthesia
• Outpatient surgical procedure
• Customized approach based on individual anatomy
• Quick recovery timeline
