Understanding Breast Lift Surgery (Mastopexy)

A breast lift, or mastopexy, is a sophisticated surgical procedure designed to restore breast shape and position. This technique addresses breast sagging caused by aging, gravity, weight loss, and pregnancy, helping women regain a more youthful and lifted breast contour.

Ideal Candidates for Breast Lift

• Women experiencing breast drooping or loss of breast firmness
• Patients with nipples that point downward
• Individuals seeking to improve breast symmetry
• Women with stretched breast skin after significant weight changes

Surgical Techniques

Dr. Nachbar utilizes advanced mastopexy techniques, including the "anchor" or "Wise Pattern" breast lift, which allows precise repositioning of breast tissue and nipple-areola complex. The procedure can be performed independently or combined with breast augmentation for comprehensive breast enhancement.

Breast Lift Procedure Details

The surgery is performed under general anesthesia, with techniques tailored to individual patient anatomy and aesthetic goals. Incision patterns vary based on the degree of breast sagging and desired outcome.

Recovery and Expectations

Recovery from a breast lift typically involves a more extended healing period compared to breast augmentation. Patients can expect gradual improvement in breast shape and positioning over several weeks to months.

Potential Benefits of Breast Lift Surgery

• Restored breast position and symmetry
• Improved breast shape and contour
• Enhanced self-confidence
• Potential reduction in areola size

Complementary Procedures

Dr. Nachbar may recommend combining breast lift with other procedures like breast augmentation or as part of a comprehensive mommy makeover for optimal aesthetic results.
