Mastopexy (Breast Lift) Newport Beach, CA | Dr. Amy Bandy

What is a Breast Lift?

A breast lift is a surgical procedure designed to elevate and reshape sagging breasts, creating a more youthful and lifted appearance. This transformative surgery addresses breast ptosis (drooping) caused by factors such as aging, pregnancy, weight fluctuations, and breastfeeding.

Ideal Candidates for Breast Lift Surgery

Dr. Amy Bandy recommends breast lift surgery for patients who experience:

• Nipples that sit low on the breasts
• Overall breast tissue that has descended on the chest wall
• Loss of breast volume and firmness
• Asymmetrical breast positioning

Breast Lift Procedure Techniques

Dr. Bandy offers multiple breast lift techniques tailored to individual patient needs:

• Peri-areolar lift: Minor areola repositioning
• Lollipop lift: Vertical incision for moderate reshaping
• Anchor lift: Comprehensive breast tissue repositioning

Surgical Details and Recovery in Newport Beach

Breast lift procedures typically range from one to four hours under general anesthesia. Patients can expect minimal discomfort with most soreness subsiding within three weeks. A specialized compression bra is recommended during initial healing.

Complementary Procedures

Dr. Bandy often combines breast lift with complementary procedures such as:

• Breast augmentation
• Breast reduction
• Mommy makeover procedures

Advanced Surgical Techniques

For complex cases, Dr. Bandy may recommend an "internal bra" technique utilizing dermal matrix to provide additional tissue support and improved long-term results.

Scarring and Results

While scarring is inevitable, Dr. Bandy aims to minimize visibility, utilizing medical-grade silicone gel scar treatments to optimize healing. Patients typically see final results within several months as breast tissues settle.
