Breast Lift Miami, FL | Dr. Bernabe Vazquez, M.D.

Understanding Breast Lift Surgery

Sagging breasts (breast ptosis) can occur due to multiple factors including childbirth, breastfeeding, weight fluctuations, and aging. Dr. Bernabe Vazquez, with nearly 30 years of experience, specializes in mastopexy procedures to elevate breasts to a more youthful position.

Breast Lift Candidacy

Ideal candidates for breast lift surgery typically include patients who:

• Are in good overall health
• Have noticeable breast sagging
• Experience downward-pointing nipples
• Have stretched breast skin
• Notice asymmetrical breast positioning

Breast Lift with Augmentation

For patients experiencing volume loss or desiring increased breast size, a combination breast lift with augmentation might be recommended. This procedure not only lifts breast tissue but also restores fullness using carefully placed implants.

Breast Lift Surgical Techniques

Dr. Vazquez employs three primary mastopexy techniques, selected based on individual patient anatomy and degree of sagging:

• Periareolar (Donut) Technique: Circular incision around areola, ideal for minimal sagging
• Vertical (Lollipop) Technique: Incision around areola and vertically down, addressing moderate sagging
• Inverted T (Anchor) Technique: Three-part incision for significant breast ptosis

Recovery and Expectations

Breast lift recovery involves wearing a surgical bra, managing post-operative swelling, and following specific activity guidelines. Patients typically return to work within a week and can resume light exercise after two weeks.
