Understanding Breast Lift Surgery in Walnut Creek

A breast lift (mastopexy) is a transformative surgical procedure designed to change the shape of the breasts and produce a more youthful, elevated aesthetic. Aging, pregnancy, and significant weight changes can cause breast tissue to soften and sag, making a breast lift an effective solution for restoring breast projection and firmness.

Why Consider a Breast Lift?

Women choose breast lift surgery for various personal reasons, including:

  • Restoring breast shape after pregnancy or weight loss
  • Improving breast symmetry and positioning
  • Enhancing overall breast contour and appearance
  • Boosting self-confidence and body image

Types of Breast Lift Procedures

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

  • Crescent Lift:
  • Periareolar Lift:
  • Vertical Lift:
  • Anchor Lift:

Breast Lift Procedure Details in Walnut Creek

During a breast lift procedure, Dr. Mele carefully removes excess skin and reshapes breast tissue to create a more elevated, youthful appearance. The surgical approach depends on the degree of ptosis (sagging) and the patient's specific aesthetic goals.

Surgical Techniques

Breast lift procedures are performed under general anesthesia in an accredited surgical facility. The technique selected will determine incision placement, extent of tissue modification, and potential combination with breast augmentation.

Recovery and Expectations

Recovery varies depending on the complexity of the breast lift technique. Most patients can expect initial healing within a few weeks, with gradual improvement in breast shape and scar appearance over several months.

Potential Candidates

Ideal breast lift candidates are healthy individuals who:

  • Have realistic aesthetic expectations
  • Are non-smokers
  • Are at a stable body weight
  • Are not currently pregnant or breastfeeding

Comprehensive Breast Rejuvenation

Dr. Mele offers comprehensive breast enhancement options, including combining breast lift with augmentation for patients desiring both lifting and increased volume.
