Breast Lift in Nashua, NH | Nashua Plastic Surgery: George P. Chatson, M.D.

Understanding Breast Lift Surgery

Age, gravity, pregnancy, and weight fluctuations can cause breasts to sag and lose their youthful appearance. Breast ptosis (sagging) is a common concern for many women, with factors like breast size, smoking, and aging contributing to changes in breast shape and position.

Ideal Candidates for Breast Lift Surgery

Suitable candidates for breast lift surgery typically include:

• Nonsmokers in good physical health
• Individuals prepared for surgical procedures
• Patients able to take time for recovery
• Those willing to follow pre and postoperative instructions

Breast Lift Incision Options

Dr. Chatson offers three primary breast lift incision techniques tailored to individual patient needs:

• Circumareolar mastopexy (Benelli Lift): Circular incision around the areola, ideal for mild to moderate ptosis
• Lollipop lift: Incision around the areola with a vertical extension, best for moderate sagging
• Full-pattern mastopexy (anchor incision): Most comprehensive technique for significant breast ptosis

Combining Breast Lift with Breast Implants

For patients experiencing volume loss, Dr. Chatson may recommend combining breast lift with breast augmentation. This approach can help restore both shape and volume, creating more balanced and favorable results.

Recovery and Results

Breast lift recovery varies by individual but typically involves:

• Resuming normal activities within 3-4 days
• Potential for mild exercise within one week
• Full recovery around 4-8 weeks
• Minimal discomfort managed with medication
