Breast Lift in Miami, FL | Baotram Tran

Understanding Breast Lift Surgery

Breast changes occur naturally due to genetic factors, weight fluctuations, aging, and childbearing. A breast lift, or mastopexy, helps restore a youthful breast contour by removing excess skin and repositioning the nipple-areolar complex.

Surgical Approach and Scar Patterns

The breast lift procedure involves multiple potential scar patterns depending on individual breast shape and skin excess. Common techniques include:

• Anchor scars
• Lollipop or vertical scars
• Crescent scars
• Donut or peri-areolar scars

Breast Augmentation Considerations

Patients have two primary options during breast lift surgery:

• Lift only: Ideal for patients satisfied with current breast volume
• Lift with augmentation: Recommended for patients seeking increased breast volume

Recovery and Healing Process

Breast lift recovery involves specific guidelines to ensure optimal healing and results:

• Same-day discharge after surgery
• Walking encouraged post-procedure
• Bruising resolves within 2 weeks
• Swelling subsides around 6 weeks
• Soft elastic bra recommended for first six weeks
• Return to normal activities within approximately 1 week

Ideal Candidate Profile

Optimal breast lift candidates are non-smokers with:

• Good overall health
• Maintained active lifestyle
• Ability to avoid nicotine products for minimum 3-6 months

Potential Surgical Considerations

Patients should understand potential surgical risks, which may include:

• Bleeding
• Infection
• Tissue healing complications
• Potential asymmetry
• Scarring
• Changes in nipple sensation
