Breast Lift in Rockwall by Dr. Robert K. Kwon, MD
Breast Lift Surgery in Dallas
Many women are satisfied with their breast size but desire a more youthful, lifted appearance. Pregnancy, weight fluctuations, and aging can cause breasts to sag and lose their shape. Dr. Robert K. Kwon offers breast lift surgery in Dallas to address these concerns and help patients achieve firmer, perkier breasts.
What is a Breast Lift?
A breast lift, or mastopexy, is a surgical procedure designed to raise and reshape sagging breasts. It removes excess skin and tightens the surrounding tissue to create a more youthful breast contour. A breast lift can also reposition and resize the nipple-areola complex if needed.
Breast Lift Techniques
Dr. Kwon utilizes several breast lift techniques, customizing the approach for each patient:
- Crescent lift
- Periareolar (donut) lift
- Vertical (lollipop) lift
- Inverted T (anchor) lift
The appropriate technique depends on the degree of sagging and the patient's unique anatomy and goals.
The Breast Lift Procedure
Breast lift surgery is typically performed as an outpatient procedure under general anesthesia. Dr. Kwon makes carefully placed incisions, removes excess skin, reshapes the breast tissue, and repositions the nipple and areola as needed. Most patients retain nipple sensation and the ability to breastfeed.
Recovery After Breast Lift Surgery
Patients can usually return home the same day as surgery. Initial discomfort is managed with pain medication. Most patients can return to work and light activities within 1-2 weeks. Dr. Kwon provides detailed post-operative instructions to ensure optimal healing.
Breast Lift Results
The results of a breast lift are long-lasting, though breasts will continue to age naturally over time. Maintaining a stable weight and wearing supportive bras can help prolong results. Some patients may choose to have a touch-up procedure years later to address new sagging.
Combining Breast Lift with Augmentation
For patients who desire both lifted and larger breasts, Dr. Kwon can combine breast lift surgery with breast augmentation using implants. This procedure is sometimes called a breast lift with augmentation or augmentation mastopexy.
