Breast Lift

A Breast Lift involves repositioning the nipple and the breast tissue by removing excess skin and reshaping the  breast. This results in improved position and contour of the breast.

Indications:
Sagging breasts

Considerations:
Breasts that are not the same size may benefit from a reduction or augmentation of one of the breasts. 

A lift without the placement of an implant may deliver the outcome that you want.

To correct the sagginess, skin must be removed and this requires placing a scar on your breast. Sometimes, minimal sagginess can be corrected with just an implant

A variety of skin products and laser techniques are available that may improve the appearance of scars.

Procedure description:
An incision is placed around the nipple area and along the lower part of the breast. Skin is removed, the breast is repositioned upwards by partially freeing it from the skin. The skin is then tightened around the breast tissue.

After surgery

All instructions are individualized for each patient according to their needs, please consult the instruction sheet.

The breast are gently bandaged and sometimes a bra is placed. Dressings are removed after 2-3 days and reapplied as necessary

Initial discomfort is controlled with oral medication.

Sutures are usually removed in 7-10 days.

Light activities can be resumed as tolerated.

Possible Risks and Complications:
The specific risks and the suitability of this procedure for a given individual can be determined only at the time of consultation. All surgical procedures have some degree of risk. Minor complications that do not affect the outcome occur occasionally. Major complications are rare.
   
Expectations and outcomes
All plastic surgical procedures are intended to improve the aesthetic or functional appearance. Expectations and outcomes may vary. Take your time to fully appreciate all the potential benefits, considerations as well as limitations. We  at rejuva are committed to help you make the right decisions for yourself.
