BREAST LIFT LITTLE SILVER, NJ | DR. PETER T. HETZLER, M.D., FACS

UNDERSTANDING BREAST LIFT SURGERY

Breast lift, or mastopexy, is a surgical procedure designed to raise
and reshape sagging breasts. Factors such as pregnancy, nursing, and
aging can cause breast tissue to lose elasticity, resulting in a
flattened or elongated breast shape.

IDEAL CANDIDATES FOR BREAST LIFT

The most suitable candidates for mastopexy are healthy, emotionally
stable women with realistic expectations. Typical characteristics
include:

 	* Physically healthy with stable weight
	* Non-smokers
	* Experiencing breast sagging or loss of volume
	* Nipples falling below the breast crease
	* Asymmetrical breast positioning

SURGICAL TECHNIQUES

Dr. Hetzler performs breast lift procedures using various incision
patterns tailored to individual patient needs. Common techniques
include:

 	* Periareolar incision (around the areola)
	* Vertical incision (areola to breast crease)
	* Anchor-shaped incision (comprehensive reshaping)

SURGICAL PROCEDURE AND RECOVERY

Mastopexy typically takes between one and a half to three and a half
hours under general anesthesia. Patients can expect gradual healing,
with most resuming normal activities within one to two weeks.

POST-SURGICAL EXPECTATIONS

Patients should anticipate temporary bruising, swelling, and potential
changes in nipple sensation. A surgical bra will be required for
several weeks to support healing and maintain new breast contours.

LONG-TERM RESULTS

While a breast lift can significantly improve breast shape and
position, results are not permanent. Factors like aging, weight
fluctuations, and pregnancy can impact long-term outcomes.
