Understanding Breast Lift Procedures

A Breast Lift is a surgical procedure designed to change the position of the breasts, addressing aesthetic concerns caused by factors like pregnancy, breastfeeding, and weight loss. These life events can cause breasts to deflate and sag, impacting their appearance and positioning.

What Does a Breast Lift Accomplish?

• Improves nipple and breast position
• Corrects sagging and breast shape
• Creates a more youthful breast appearance
• Can be combined with breast augmentation for added volume

Procedure Details

During a Breast Lift, Dr. Dillon will make strategic incisions underneath the breast or around the areolas. These carefully placed incisions allow for precise repositioning and will be minimally noticeable once healed. The procedure typically involves placing implants underneath the chest muscle to achieve a natural-looking result.

Candidate Criteria

Ideal candidates for a Breast Lift are individuals who:

• Are in excellent overall health
• Have realistic expectations about surgical outcomes
• Are non-smokers
• Do not take blood-thinning medications

Recovery Expectations

Patients can anticipate a recovery period of two to four weeks. Initial recovery involves managing swelling, potential bruising, and wearing a specialized support bra. Most patients return to work within one to two weeks and can resume normal physical activities after four to six weeks.

Important Considerations

A Breast Lift alters breast shape and nipple direction but does not significantly change breast size. Patients should discuss their specific goals and expectations during a comprehensive consultation with Dr. Dillon.
