Understanding Mastopexy: Breast Lift Surgery

Mastopexy is a specialized surgical procedure designed to elevate and reshape breast tissue, restoring a more youthful breast position. Dr. Ellen performs breast lift surgery for women experiencing breast sagging caused by factors such as childbirth, weight fluctuations, or aging.

Breast Lift Candidacy

Potential candidates for mastopexy typically include individuals who:

• Wish to restore a more youthful breast position
• Experience mild to severe breast sagging
• Have undergone significant weight loss
• Seek to address excess breast skin

Surgical Technique

Dr. Ellen utilizes advanced surgical techniques to perform breast lift procedures. The surgery typically involves creating strategic incisions—such as keyhole, inverted T, or anchor-shaped—to remove excess skin and reshape breast tissue. In select cases, an incision surrounding the areola may be used.

Breast Lift Procedure Details in Bloomfield Hills

During the procedure, Dr. Ellen carefully tightens loose skin and repositions glandular tissue to create a more elevated and aesthetically pleasing breast contour. The specific approach depends on the individual patient's unique anatomy and desired outcomes.

Surgical Considerations

While a traditional mastopexy does not involve implants, some patients might benefit from an augmentation-mastopexy combination. This can be performed in a single procedure or through staged operations.

Scarring and Recovery

Patients can expect permanent surgical scars that will fade and flatten significantly over time. Scarring is strategically placed to minimize visibility, with portions concealed within the areola's pigmented area.
