Advanced Breast Lift in Bellaire, TX | Dr. Neal R. Reisman, MD, JD

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 like pregnancy, nursing, and gravity can cause breasts to lose their shape and firmness. Dr. Neal R. Reisman's breast lift technique addresses these changes by restoring a more youthful breast contour.

Ideal Candidates for Breast Lift

The most suitable candidates for mastopexy are healthy, emotionally stable women with realistic expectations. Typical candidates include:

• Women with small, sagging breasts
• Patients with stretched skin from pregnancy and nursing
• Individuals seeking to improve breast shape and position

Surgical Approach and Techniques

Dr. Reisman employs advanced surgical techniques tailored to each patient's unique anatomy. The most common approach involves an anchor-shaped incision that follows the natural breast contour. This method allows for comprehensive breast reshaping and nipple repositioning.

Breast Lift Surgical Procedure

Mastopexy typically takes between one and a half to three and a half hours. The procedure involves carefully removing excess skin, repositioning the nipple and areola, and reshaping the breast tissue to achieve a more lifted and youthful appearance.

Potential Combination Procedures

In some cases, Dr. Reisman may recommend combining a breast lift with breast augmentation to enhance volume and improve overall breast appearance. This personalized approach ensures optimal aesthetic results for each patient.

Recovery and Results

After the procedure, patients can expect some initial bruising and swelling. A surgical bra will be worn for three to four weeks to support healing. Most patients can return to normal activities within one to two weeks, with full recovery taking several months.

Long-Term Considerations

While a breast lift can significantly improve breast appearance, it cannot permanently halt the effects of aging and gravity. Maintaining a stable weight and healthy lifestyle can help prolong the surgical results.
