Understanding Breast Lift Surgery

A breast lift, medically known as mastopexy, is a surgical procedure designed to raise and reshape sagging breasts. Over time, factors such as pregnancy, nursing, and gravity can cause breasts to lose their shape and firmness, creating a need for surgical intervention.

Key Procedural Details

• Surgical duration: Approximately 2.5 to 3 hours
• Anesthesia: Typically general anesthesia
• Primary goal: Restore breast shape and elevation

Ideal Candidates for Breast Lift

The most suitable candidates for breast lift surgery are healthy, emotionally stable women with realistic expectations. The procedure is particularly effective for women experiencing breast sagging due to:

• Post-pregnancy changes
• Significant weight loss
• Natural aging process

Surgical Technique

Dr. Michael Baroody employs a specialized technique that utilizes the patient's natural breast tissue to create a longer-lasting result. The procedure typically involves strategic incisions around the areola and vertically, allowing for skin removal and nipple repositioning.

Recovery and Expectations

Post-surgical recovery involves wearing a surgical bra for three to four weeks and gradually resuming normal activities. Patients can expect some initial swelling and bruising, which will subside over time. Dr. Baroody provides comprehensive post-operative instructions to ensure optimal healing.

Potential Considerations

• Permanent surgical scars
• Potential temporary nipple sensation changes
• Results may be affected by future pregnancies and weight fluctuations

Combining Procedures

For patients seeking additional volume, Dr. Baroody can combine breast lift with implant placement to enhance both shape and size. This personalized approach ensures tailored results that meet individual aesthetic goals.
