Breast Lift Charlottesville, VA | Raymond Morgan, MD

Understanding Breast Lift Surgery

Breast lift surgery, or mastopexy, is a specialized procedure designed to raise and reshape sagging breasts, restoring a more youthful and elevated breast contour. At Raymond Morgan, MD, board-certified plastic surgeons provide comprehensive breast lift solutions for women experiencing breast changes due to pregnancy, aging, or weight fluctuations.

Ideal Candidates for Breast Lift

Women considering a breast lift may be suitable candidates if they experience:

• Breasts that have lost their natural shape and firmness
• Nipples that point downward or fall below the breast crease
• Asymmetrical or elongated breast appearance
• Desire to restore breast positioning without changing volume

Breast Lift Techniques

Raymond Morgan, MD offers multiple breast lift techniques to address unique patient needs:

• "Donut" Lift: Minimal correction with an incision around the areola
• "Lollipop" Lift: Vertical incision for moderate reshaping
• "Anchor" Lift: Comprehensive correction for significant sagging

Surgical Procedure

Breast lift surgery is typically performed as an outpatient procedure under local or general anesthesia. Surgeons carefully reposition breast tissue, reshape the areolas, and remove excess skin to create a more lifted, symmetrical appearance.

Recovery and Expectations

Patients can expect the following during breast lift recovery:

• Initial swelling and bruising for several weeks
• Return to non-physical work within one week
• Gradual scar fading over 6-12 months
• Avoided strenuous activities for 3-4 weeks

Complementary Procedures

Some patients may combine breast lift with augmentation or reduction for comprehensive breast enhancement. Raymond Morgan, MD can discuss personalized treatment plans during consultation.
