The breast is one of the most important attributes of female beauty – a symbol of attractiveness and desire. Many women are not completely happy with the size and shape of their breast and today women who are unhappy with their breasts have many options which include Breast Lift.
This procedure can provide dramatic results giving women freedom for the considerable physical and emotional difficulties that drooping breasts can cause. In some instances where significant weight loss or pregnancy has occurred, this procedure can also be performed in conjunction with breast implant surgery. Combining breast uplift surgery with implant surgery will boost both the size and shape of the breast.
Over the years, pregnancy, nursing and the force of gravity all take their toll on a womans breasts and body but breasts often lose their shape and firmness and begin to sag as the skin loses its elasticity.
A Breast lift is an advanced and reasonably lengthy and complex surgical procedure to raise and reshape sagging breasts, at least for a time. (No surgery can defy the effects of gravity). It can also reduce the size of the areola, the dark skin surrounding the nipple.

• To increase self confidence and enhance self image
• To give a more youthful appearance in a natural way
• To correct a bust that has been affected by the effects of gravity
• To balance a difference in uneven breast (assymetry)
• To reduce concerns about body size that may affect self esteem and relationships
• To regain body shape after birth, dramatic weight loss, pregnancy

The best candidates for breast lift are those who are in good physical health, are mentally and psychologically stable, preferably do not smoke, those who want to improve their appearance and those who have realistic expectations about the procedure and the results. Extra reasons may include;
• those who are women with small sagging breasts
• women with large and heavy breasts (but may find the results do not last as long)

Pre-visit and during consultations the surgeon will try to evaluate your physical-mental health and any medical conditions. In order to obtain the best results it is important that you are honest with the surgeon, that you advise any previous surgeries, if you are taking any medications, herbal supplements, vitamins or other drugs and if you smoke. Be sure to discuss your expectations and goals. The surgeon is here to guide, advise and explain to you how the surgery will be performed, possible alternatives that may offer better results, the risks and limitations of each as well as details of follow up and after care.

The Procedure

There are different techniques that are used for breast lift. A common method of lifting the breast involves three seperate incisions. One incision is made around the areola, another vertical incision runs from the bottom edge of the areola to the crease under the breast, and the third incision is horizontal from beneath the breast and follows the natural curve of the breast crease.

Breast lift surgery can vary in the design of the incisions. Size and shape of your breasts, size of your areolas, and extent of the sagging are some of the factors that will help the plastic surgeon determine the best technique for the patient. Sometimes the horizontal incision beneath the breast can be avoided and the vertical incision can be avoided in other techniques. The surgeon will discuss modified techniques if you are a candidate for it.

The surgeon removes the excess breast skin and then shifts the nipple and areola to a higher position. The areola can also be reduced in size. The skin that had been located above the areola is brought down and together beneath it. Sensation is preserved because the nipples and areolas remain attached to underlying mounds of tissue, which also allows the ability to breast-feed.

Patients will be advised to refrain from work to recover, usually 2 weeks, and no strenuous exercise for at least 8 weeks following surgery. In the early days following discharge, patients are strongly advised to stay mobile but to avoid any level of activity that would put undue strain on the new surgical wounds.

Whist the breast lift operation is a relatively major procedure, the operated area is often quite numb following surgery and patients often express that they experience a surprising lack of post operative pain. Should the patient require it though pain killers can be given.

The return of nipple sensitivity following surgery is entirelely variable in different patients. The sensation in the nipples is often preserved but may be temporarily reduced or enhanced whilst the scars heal. One in ten women will lose some or all feeling in one or both of their nipples.

In order to re-shape the breast tissue visible scarring is unavoidable. The appearance of surgical scars progressively fade after surgery. Usually scarring matures and begins to fade to a cosmetically acceptable level within 12 months following surgery. Very occasionally red, unsightly, firm scars form, which do not fade easily, this condition is known as Hypertrophic (or Keloid) scarring which may require further corrective treatment.

The results are long lasting however breasts will continue to sag with age weight changes or future pregnancies.

If you are looking for a procedure to give you a better shaped breast and a more youthful look then a Breast Uplift is the answer. Most patients are more than happy with the end results and often repeat the process.
