Breast Lift (Mastopexy) Before & After Gallery

A Breast Lift, also known as Mastopexy, is a surgical procedure that aims to lift and reshape the breasts by removing excess skin and repositioning the nipple and areola. This procedure does not significantly change breast volume but may help improve breast symmetry and position for individuals experiencing breast ptosis.

What is a Breast Lift?

A Breast Lift (Mastopexy) is a surgical procedure that addresses breast droop (ptosis). It lifts and improves the shape of the breast without changing the breast volume. Mastopexy involves lifting the nipple position, tightening the lower part of the breast, and often increasing the breast volume, particularly in the upper part of the breast. Breast Lift surgery is performed in a private hospital under general anaesthesia.

Some breasts develop with a natural droop, while other breasts sag over time. This is due to the skin and ligaments slowly stretching and elongating. If breast tissue loses volume over time, this can exacerbate the droopiness.

There are various techniques used to perform a Breast Lift, depending on the patient’s anatomy. Breast Lift techniques include the Crescent lift, Peri-Areolar Lift (also known as the Doughnut Lift), Lollipop Lift and Anchor Lift.

Suitable candidates for a Breast Lift should be in good mental and physical health, a non-smoker and not currently pregnant or breastfeeding. They should be prepared to follow all post-procedure instructions to support their recovery and ensure optimal outcomes. Additionally, they should be aware of all potential complications and risks associated with the procedure and have realistic expectations regarding its outcomes.

QUESTIONS

Breast ptosis is another name for breast droop. It is when the breasts appear lower on the chest wall than their natural position. It can be caused by skin laxity, loss of breast volume or stretching of the internal ligaments and connective tissue that support the breasts.

A Breast Lift (Mastopexy) is a surgical procedure performed to address breast ptosis (droop). During surgery, the position of the nipple is lifted, tightening the hanging underboob, and often, the breast volume is increased, especially in the upper part of the breasts. Alternatively, a Breast Augmentation involves placing a silicone implant beneath the breast tissue or chest muscle to add volume to the breast.

While a Breast Lift can provide long-lasting results, it is not immune to the natural ageing process or gravity. Over time, some sagging may occur. Additionally, if there are weight fluctuations, this can stretch the skin and may affect the results of your Breast Lift.

As a Breast Lift can disrupt the breast milk ducts, there may be a potentially reduced ability to breastfeed. The more substantial the breast lift, the greater the risk that your breastfeeding ability will be reduced.

After your Breast Lift, you may return to light office work after one week. However, do not overexert yourself during this time. While you’re encouraged to take very short walks from day one, you can only take longer walks after two weeks. Avoid lifting or engaging in physical activities for at least four weeks.
