Breast Lift in Pittsburgh, PA | Raymond A. Capone Jr., MD

Breast Lift Surgery (Mastopexy) Overview

Aging, weight loss, and childbearing can result in sagging, deflated breasts that make you look older. Breast lift surgery, or mastopexy, firms, raises, and reshapes sagging breasts by removing excess skin and repositioning tissue and nipples. The procedure can help restore breasts to a perkier, shapelier appearance.

Key Benefits of Breast Lift Surgery

• Restores breast firmness and shape
• Repositions nipples for improved aesthetic
• Removes excess, stretched skin
• Provides more youthful breast contour

Breast Lift Procedure Details

During breast lift surgery, loose skin around the breasts is removed, which allows preserved breast tissue to firm up and move back to a higher position. Surgeons may use synthetic mesh or patient's own skin to support the breast structure and potentially add fullness through fat transfer techniques.

Procedure Specifications

• Duration: Approximately 2-3 hours
• Performed under general anesthesia
• Can be combined with breast reduction or augmentation

Recovery and Expectations

Patients can typically return to regular activities within a few days after the procedure. Full exercise resumption is recommended after three weeks. A special support bra must be worn for approximately one month to ensure proper healing and optimal results.
