Understanding Breast Lift Surgery

Aging, pregnancy, breastfeeding, gravity, and weight fluctuations can dramatically change breast skin elasticity and appearance. Breast lift surgery, or mastopexy, can restore a perky breast shape to sagging, drooping, or deflated breasts. Dr. Melanie Prince is a board-certified plastic surgeon specializing in personalized breast lift procedures for women in Little Rock and Fayetteville, Arkansas.

Benefits of Breast Lift Surgery

  • Restore a youthful breast appearance with firmer-looking breasts
  • Improve nipple positioning and orientation
  • Minimize large areola size
  • Eliminate skin irritation and physical discomfort from sagging breasts
  • Boost confidence in clothing and personal appearance

Breast Lift vs. Augmentation

Some patients seeking breast augmentation may actually benefit more from a breast lift. A simple test can help determine candidacy: if a pencil stays in place in the breast crease when walking, a breast lift might be recommended. Dr. Prince can help patients determine the most appropriate procedure for their aesthetic goals.

Surgical Procedure Details

Breast lift surgery is an outpatient procedure performed under general anesthesia. Dr. Prince creates strategic incisions around the nipple, potentially extending vertically and along the breast crease. The breast tissue is lifted, reshaped, and excess skin is removed to create a more youthful, elevated breast contour.

Recovery and Results

Patients can expect some initial swelling and discomfort managed with prescribed medication. Strict activity restrictions are necessary for four weeks, including wearing a specialized front-closing sports bra. Final results become visible once swelling subsides, typically several months after the procedure.

Candidacy for Breast Lift

Ideal candidates are in good overall health, non-smokers, at a stable weight, and experiencing breast sagging or loss of breast shape. Dr. Prince conducts comprehensive consultations to ensure patients are suitable for the procedure.

Dr. Prince performed a vertical abdominoplasty and breast lift to remove excess skin after my 100 pound weight loss. I can’t say enough good things. My results exceeded my expectations and visits with Dr. Prince and Christa are like spending time with girlfriends who are excited for you. Wonderful experience and amazing results ❤️

I can’t say enough praise for Dr. Prince and her staff! As a health professional myself, I felt comfortable with her and her staff and would recommend any of my family or friends to her (and of course I have!) I’m so happy I went to her and I have absolutely no regrets!

I have lost quite a bit of weight over the last few years and knew I’d need a vertical (also known as FDL) tummy tuck. I had a weird and complicated body shape from years of stretched out skin. I knew I wanted an experienced plastic surgeon certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery. When I saw that Dr. Prince had a gallery dedicated to vertical tummy tucks, I felt like she was the one. She was booked out further than the other surgeons that I consulted with, but she has been worth the wait and every penny! She exceeded my expectations. She removed almost 12 pounds of skin from my abdomen. I never thought I’d have perky boobs, but here I am! She was also the only surgeon that I consulted with that was able to keep my breast size without doing implants. She was able to use my own tissue to give me the size that I wanted. This also saved me money on implants, which is how I knew she was looking out for my best interest. I went into my consultation planning on implants because I didn’t know it was possible to just use my own tissue. She could have easily went with my plan for implants and pocketed that money. She also let me ask as many questions as I wanted every time that I have seen her. She was just as excited as I was for my life changing results and didn’t make me feel stupid at my post-op visit as I was sobbing happy tears. I have received compliments from other medical professionals on how beautiful my incisions are. She is highly skilled, and I am so thankful that I chose her. I know my body shape was a challenge, but this woman is an artist who wasn’t afraid! Her staff has also been amazing and responsive! Christa and Tina have both been SO kind. I have emailed Christa so many times. She’s never complained, and she always emails me back so quickly. Little Rock never ceases to amaze me with the talent hidden here. I even looked at surgeons in Houston since I have family there, but I still decided that Dr. Prince was the most experienced for what I needed. No regrets.

I had the absolute best experience with Dr. Prince and her incredible team! I went in for a Bilateral Breast Augmentation and Dr. Prince helped me discover the look and size of my dreams! I’ll definitely be going back to Prince Plastic Surgery in the future. The whole process was easy: consultation to surgery day! I highly recommend Dr. Prince to anyone even considering plastic surgery.
