Breast lift

Breast lifts are often requested by patients after weight loss, breast feeding, age-related progressing, or breast sagginess. Particularly with exceptionally large breasts, physical complaints such as back pain can also occur. Breast lift, or also called mastopexy, corrects sagging/drooping of the breast. A breast lift can either be performed as a single procedure, where the nipple is moved back upwards, as the original location, or in combination with a breast reduction or breast augmentation, the removal of tissue in a lift is limited to the skin only. Depending on the shape of the breast and the degree of sagging, different techniques are available.

Most women seeking a breast lift are looking for natural and youthfully shaped, which are similar in shape and appearance to what they used to have when they were younger, or before pregnancy. Although the cup size of your breast will not change (unless you request this) your breast shape, and its enhanced projection will make it appear more youthful.

The operation is performed under general anesthesia. Depending on the extent of the intervention, it is necessary to spend a night or two in the hospital. After surgery, a special support bra should be worn for six weeks. Sporting activities should also be avoided for at least six weeks. Usually, no suture removal is necessary as we use absorbable surgical sutures.
