Breast Lift in The Woodlands, TX | SGK Plastic Surgery: Sugene Kim, MD, FACS

Understanding Breast Lift Surgery

Breast lift surgery is a specialized surgical procedure designed to restore breasts to a higher, more youthful position on the chest wall. By reshaping and repairing existing breast tissue, the procedure creates a round, plump breast profile and may include surgically repositioning or reshaping the nipple structure.

Reasons for Breast Lift Surgery

Dr. Sugene Kim performs breast lift surgery to address various breast concerns, including:

• Effects of gravity and aging
• Changes in breast volume and skin elasticity
• Sagging caused by pregnancy and breastfeeding
• Downward-pointing nipples
• Deflated breast appearance

Surgical Approach to Breast Lift

Each breast lift procedure at SGK Plastic Surgery is customized to match the patient's unique anatomical needs. Dr. Kim utilizes three primary incision techniques:

• Anchor Incision: Most comprehensive technique, ideal for significant breast sagging
• Lollipop Incision: Circles areola and travels vertically to breast crease
• Circumareolar Incision: Minimal scarring, suitable for mild sagging

Recovery and Aftercare

Following a breast lift procedure, patients can expect a structured recovery process. Patients will need to avoid strenuous activities and follow specific post-surgical guidelines to ensure optimal healing and results.

Candidacy for Breast Lift

Women experiencing breast ptosis (sagging) are typically ideal candidates for a breast lift. This condition is often characterized by nipples pointing downward and loose breast skin. The procedure can be performed on women with various breast sizes and can be combined with augmentation for enhanced results.

Procedure Pricing

Breast lift surgery pricing typically starts at $13,000, with final costs varying based on individual surgical requirements, complexity, and additional procedures.
