BREAST LIFT (MASTOPEXY) EDINA, MN | DAVID F. RUEBECK, MD, FACS

UNDERSTANDING BREAST LIFT SURGERY

A breast lift improves the shape of the breasts by removing excess
skin from the lower part of the breast. During the procedure, the skin
is carefully redraped and the nipple is elevated to create a more
youthful and aesthetically pleasing contour.

SURGICAL PROCEDURE DETAILS

Breast lift surgery is performed under general anesthesia, allowing
patients to return home the same day. The advanced surgical technique
ensures minimal discomfort and optimal aesthetic results.

RECOVERY AND HEALING

Patients can expect the following recovery guidelines:

 	* Discomfort gradually reduces over 5-7 days
	* Recommended time off work: Approximately one week
	* Avoid strenuous activity for 3-4 weeks after surgery

SURGICAL SCARRING

Incision placement is carefully planned to minimize visible scarring.
Typical scar locations include:

 	* Around the areola
	* Down the lower part of the front of the breast
	* Along the crease beneath the breast

Scars will naturally lighten and fade over a 6-12 month period.

PATIENT CANDIDACY

Ideal candidates for breast lift surgery should be in overall good
health and current non-smokers. A personalized consultation is
essential to determine individual suitability for the procedure.
