When and What Type of Breast Lift Do I Need?

You can mask the effects of breast droop with a good bra and figure-flattering clothing, but at the end of the day, a simple breast lift may be the best solution. At our cosmetic surgery clinic, we can restore the breasts back to their original size and shape so they look perky and full once again. After discussing your history and goals, I will take measurements to help you determine the right approach.

When Should I Get A Breast Lift?

Most important, you should be at a stable, healthy weight and finished with childbearing, if possible. The goal is to make sure that your body is not going to go through anymore changes, as those will have an impact on the overall success of your breast lift. Your breasts will change during pregnancy, so it is best to wait until you are completely finished having children before getting a breast lift.

Should I Get A Breast Augmentation With My Breast Lift?

Most patients choose implants and augmentation along with their breast lift because they also need to restore volume. Even if you are getting a breast lift as part of a breast reduction surgery, you may use a small implant to create a firm, round shape for your new breasts. If you are unhappy with the size or fullness of your breasts, I will discuss breast implants and augmentation to help you decide what size to get.

What Types Of Breast Lifts Do You Use?

I use minimally invasive technology and the latest techniques to deliver the best breast shape for your body, complete with perfect cleavage and long term results. I perform a wide range of different breast lifts, from scarless and minimal scar techniques to a crescent and lollipop incision, depending on the degree of sagging. At your consultation, we can discuss the type of lift that best suits your individual needs based on your measurements, body shape and goals. The majority of my patients have some degree of asymmetry or a slight imbalance in their breasts, which we can correct during your breast lift. For example, one of your breasts may be larger than the other. Some patients have a nipple lower than the other, or their areolas are enlarged and uneven. These are all addressed simultaneously.
