Understanding Breast Lift Surgery

As women age and experience life milestones like pregnancy and weight changes, breast appearance can transform. A breast lift helps restore breast shape, elevating breasts and repositioning nipples to create a more youthful contour.

What is a Breast Lift?

A breast lift is an elective plastic surgery procedure that removes excess skin and tightens surrounding tissue to reshape and support breast contours. The primary goal is to raise and restore breast position, creating a more aesthetically pleasing appearance.

Benefits of a Breast Lift

• Improved breast shape and positioning
• Enhanced body confidence
• Potential improvement in posture
• Restored breast symmetry

Breast Lift Procedure Types

Vertical Lift (Lollipop Lift)

Ideal for women with significant breast sagging, this technique involves vertical and circumareolar incisions to remove excess skin and create a tighter, more rounded breast appearance.

Traditional Lift

Also known as an inverted "T" mastopexy, this comprehensive approach is best for patients with advanced breast ptosis, involving multiple incision techniques.

Benelli Lift

A minimally invasive procedure using a circular incision around the areola, suitable for patients with minimal sagging who desire subtle improvements.

Candidate Considerations

Ideal breast lift candidates are healthy individuals over 18 who:

• Have realistic surgical expectations
• Are non-smokers
• Are in good psychological health
• Have stable weight

Surgical Process

During the procedure, patients receive general anesthesia. Dr. Vu carefully marks incision sites, removes excess skin, and repositions breast tissue to create a more elevated, youthful appearance.

Recovery and Results

Patients can expect initial recovery within 1-2 weeks, with full results becoming apparent after several months. Surgical techniques minimize scarring while maximizing aesthetic outcomes.
