A breast lift is indicated in several situations, particularly when someone is experiencing sagging or changes in breast shape. It focuses on raising and reshaping sagging breasts. This procedure involves removing excess skin and tightening the surrounding tissue to provide a more youthful, firmer appearance. It’s commonly sought by those experiencing breast sagging due to aging, gravity, or changes after pregnancy.
Common reasons for considering a breast lift include:
- Loss of Firmness: Breasts may lose their youthful firmness due to aging or hormonal changes.
- Sagging (Ptosis): If the breasts droop, often indicated by the nipple being below the fold of the breast, a lift can restore position.
- Changes After Pregnancy: Pregnancy and breastfeeding can cause changes in breast volume and shape, leading to sagging.
- Significant Weight Loss: Losing a large amount of weight can result in excess skin and loss of breast volume, prompting the need for a lift.
- Genetic Factors: Some individuals may naturally have breasts that sag more than others due to genetics.
- Desire for Improved Aesthetics: Many seek a lift for a more youthful appearance or to enhance their overall body proportion.
When doing a Breast Lift procedure, the patient can also opt for a Breast Augmentation which involves the use of implants or fat transfer to increase the size and volume of the breasts. This procedure is typically chosen by individuals who want to enhance their breast size or restore volume lost due to several factors like weight loss, aging, or pregnancy.
It’s important to consult with a qualified plastic surgeon to determine the best approach based on individual needs and goals.
