A mastopexy, or breast lift, is a surgical procedure performed to reshape the breast and return it to a more youthful position.
Dropping of the breast may occur after pregnancy as well as with aging. It iscommon to perform a breast implant in conjunction with a breast lift, in order to achieve better results.
Depending on the amount of breast lifting which needs to be accomplished, different techniques may be used which involve different incisions. Generally, the more lifting that is required, the larger the incision (therefore, the larger the scar would be).
The T-incision usually achieves the greatest amount of breast lifting. However, it also requires the largest incisions, which go around the aereola, down the breast and under the breast.
The appropriate amount of skin is removed.
The breast tissue is tightened with internal sutures. External suture is used to close the skin around the areola, down the breast, and under the breast.
Healing time may take several weeks. Usually, a special bra is worn to support the breast. That takes up to three months. The compression bra is an important part of the recovery process. The bra provides support, comfort and helps minimize the swelling.
