Breast Lift Bradenton, FL | Dr. Jacqueline Royce, D.O.

Understanding Breast Lift Surgery

A breast lift, medically known as mastopexy, is a surgical procedure designed to raise and reshape breasts by removing excess skin and tightening surrounding tissue. This procedure restores a more youthful and uplifted breast contour.

Why Women Choose Breast Lift Surgery

Breast shape and position can change due to various factors, including:

• Heredity and genetics
• Significant weight fluctuations
• Pregnancy
• Breastfeeding
• Natural aging process
• Gravitational effects

Breast Lift Procedure Types

Dr. Royce offers three primary breast lift techniques:

• Circumareolar: Incision around the areola
• Keyhole/Lollipop: Incision around and below the areola
• Full/Anchor: Incisions circling areola, vertically to breast crease, and horizontally along natural breast fold

Procedure Expectations and Recovery

Following a breast lift, patients can expect a carefully managed recovery process. A supportive bra will be worn to maintain proper breast positioning and minimize swelling. Most patients return to work within 5-7 days and can resume aerobic exercise after approximately 30 days.

Breast Lift vs. Other Procedures

A breast lift focuses on reshaping and elevating breast position without significantly changing size. For patients desiring fuller volume, Dr. Royce recommends considering breast lift with augmentation. For those seeking smaller breasts, a combined lift and reduction might be appropriate.
