Breast Lift Houston, TX | Mark Schusterman, MD, FACS

What is a Breast Lift?

A breast lift, or mastopexy, is a cosmetic surgical procedure designed to correct breast concerns such as sagging, asymmetry, and nipple positioning. Dr. Mark Schusterman specializes in reshaping and restoring breasts to provide a fuller, more youthful appearance tailored to each patient's body type.

Breast Lift Techniques

• Scarless Lift: Minimizes incisions using advanced techniques
• Crescent Lift: Minor adjustments with minimal scarring
• Donut Lift: Single incision around the areola
• Lollipop Lift: Addresses significant sagging
• Anchor Lift: Most comprehensive correction for extensive sagging

Breast Lift vs. Breast Augmentation

While breast augmentation increases breast size using implants, a breast lift focuses on reshaping and repositioning existing breast tissue. Dr. Schusterman can combine these procedures to achieve optimal results.

Ideal Candidates for Breast Lift

Candidates should have realistic expectations and consider a breast lift if they want to:

• Correct breast asymmetry
• Improve overall breast appearance
• Restore pre-pregnancy or pre-weight loss breast shape

Procedure and Recovery

The breast lift procedure typically takes approximately two hours under general anesthesia. Patients should plan for 7-10 days of limited upper body activity and follow post-surgical instructions carefully.

Expected Results

Breast lift results typically last 10-15 years, depending on factors like aging, weight changes, and lifestyle. The procedure can significantly improve breast shape and patient confidence.

Consultation and Planning

Dr. Schusterman recommends a comprehensive consultation to discuss individual goals, determine the most appropriate technique, and develop a personalized surgical plan.
