Understanding Breast Lift Surgery

Cosmetic breast surgery has become one of the most popular aesthetic procedures worldwide. While breast augmentation remains the most common procedure, breast lifts offer patients an opportunity to rejuvenate their breast appearance and restore a more youthful contour.

Who Considers a Breast Lift?

Contrary to popular belief, breast lift patients are not exclusively older women. The average age for breast lift procedures is approximately 39 years old, similar to those seeking augmentation or reduction surgeries.

Why Patients Seek Breast Lift Procedures

As women age and experience life events like pregnancy, breast tissue naturally changes. Common reasons for breast lift procedures include:

• Addressing drooping or sagging breast tissue
• Repositioning nipples and areolas
• Restoring breast symmetry and shape
• Improving overall breast proportion

Surgical Techniques

Atlantic Coast Aesthetics offers multiple breast lift techniques tailored to individual patient needs. The most common approaches include:

• "Anchor" incision method with three strategic incisions
• "Lollipop" incision technique
• "Peri-areola" or "donut" incision approach

Breast Lift Procedure Details

Breast lift surgeries are typically performed as outpatient procedures using general or local anesthesia. The entire process takes approximately two hours, depending on individual complexity. During the procedure, excess skin is removed, breast tissue is reshaped, and nipples are repositioned to create a more youthful appearance.

Recovery and Expectations

Recovery from a breast lift procedure involves initial bed rest and wearing surgical dressings. Patients can expect:

• Mild discomfort manageable with prescribed medication
• Temporary swelling and bruising
• Suture removal within 1-2 weeks
• Return to normal activities within one week

Combining Procedures

Many patients opt to combine breast lift surgery with additional procedures like breast augmentation or reduction to achieve comprehensive aesthetic goals.
