BREAST LIFT IN ANCHORAGE | JANA COLE, MD

UNDERSTANDING BREAST LIFT SURGERY

Breast lift surgery addresses multiple factors contributing to breast
sagging, including breastfeeding, weight fluctuations, and natural
aging processes. Plastic Surgeons of Alaska provides comprehensive
breast lift procedures for women throughout the Kenai Peninsula and
Mat-Su Valley, including Wasilla and Palmer.

WHAT IS A BREAST LIFT?

A breast lift, or mastopexy, is a surgical procedure designed to
elevate and reshape breast tissue. The operation focuses on:

 	* Repositioning breast tissue
	* Restoring breast symmetry
	* Enhancing overall breast contour

PROCEDURE DETAILS

Plastic Surgeons of Alaska performs breast lift surgery as an
outpatient procedure. Patients can expect:

 	* Day surgery with general anesthesia
	* Compressive wrapping to minimize complications
	* Restricted arm movements during initial recovery
	* Approximately three weeks for full activity resumption

SURGICAL CONSIDERATIONS

Patients should understand that breast lift surgery involves incisions
around the areola and beneath the breast. While surgeons minimize
scarring, some visible marks are inevitable due to the procedure's
nature.

POTENTIAL SURGICAL OUTCOMES

Important considerations include:

 	* Potential changes in nipple sensation
	* Possibility of future surgical revisions
	* Natural breast aging continues after surgery

MEDICAL PRECAUTIONS

Plastic Surgeons of Alaska recommends patients:

 	* Cease smoking 2-3 weeks before and after surgery
	* Maintain regular breast cancer screenings
	* Follow all pre and post-operative instructions carefully

BREAST CANCER SCREENING

A breast lift does not increase or decrease breast cancer risks.
Patients should continue routine mammograms and self-examinations as
recommended by healthcare professionals.

SURGICAL RISKS

Like all surgical procedures, breast lift surgery carries potential
risks including:

 	* Infection
	* Bleeding
	* Anesthesia complications
	* Potential nipple sensation changes

Surgeons of Alaska offers breast lift surgery for women throughout the
Kenai Peninsula and Mat-Su Valley, including Wasilla and Palmer.

WHAT IS A BREAST LIFT?

A breast lift, or mastopexy, is a surgical procedure designed to

following characteristics:

 	* Completed under general anesthesia
	* Involves repositioning breast tissue
	* Potential combination with breast augmentation
	* Approximately three-week recovery period

SURGICAL CONSIDERATIONS

Patients should understand that breast lift surgery:

 	* Results in scarring around the areola and beneath the breast
	* Does not address back, neck, or shoulder pain
	* Cannot correct existing stretch marks
	* May require revision after 9-12 months of healing

POTENTIAL RISKS AND LIMITATIONS

Like all surgical procedures, breast lift surgery involves potential
risks, including:

 	* Altered nipple sensation
	* Potential tissue complications

LONG-TERM EXPECTATIONS

While a breast lift can significantly improve breast shape, patients
should understand that some natural sagging may recur due to gravity
and decreased skin elasticity over time.

MEDICAL CONSIDERATIONS

A breast lift does not impact breast cancer risk. Patients should
continue routine breast examinations and mammography as recommended by
healthcare professionals.
