Breast Lift New York, NY | Tribeca Aesthetics - Jimmy C. Sung, MD, JD, FACS

Understanding Breast Lift Surgery

Aging, pregnancy, and weight fluctuations can cause breasts to lose elasticity and firmness. Breast lift surgery improves sagging breasts by removing excess skin and tightening supportive tissues. The procedure elevates breasts to a more youthful position, creating a firmer and more aesthetically pleasing appearance.

Comprehensive Breast Lift Techniques

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

• Periareolar Technique: Ideal for mild breast ptosis
• Lollipop Technique: Suitable for moderate breast sagging
• Anchor Technique: Recommended for severe breast ptosis

Candidate Considerations for Breast Lift

Ideal candidates for breast lift surgery include women experiencing:

• Significant breast volume loss
• Downward-pointing nipples
• Breast asymmetry
• Tubular breast shape

Breast Lift Procedure Details

Performed as an outpatient procedure under general anesthesia, breast lift surgery typically takes two to four hours. Dr. Sung carefully removes and reshapes excess breast tissue, repositions nipples and areolas, and creates a more defined breast contour.

Recovery and Results

Patients can expect to return to work within one week, with full recovery taking approximately four weeks. Surgical support garments are essential during the healing process. Results are considered permanent when maintaining stable weight and avoiding significant hormonal changes.

Potential Risks and Considerations

While complications are rare under an experienced board-certified surgeon, potential risks include:

• Temporary changes in sensation
• Potential scarring
• Minor risk of infection
• Potential nerve sensitivity
