Breast Lifting

Female breasts change over time, losing their youthful shape, skin elasticity as a result of pregnancy, breastfeeding, weight variation, gravity. If you want to restore the firmness and shape of your breasts, breast lift is your surgical correction.

Operative intervention:

the skin on the bust that has expanded and relaxed
the nipple falls under the fold of the breast
the nipple and areola point downwards
the skin is wrinkled and the areola is enlarged
Through this operation, these changes can be corrected. The operation can be combined with the implantation of breast prostheses or with a reduction in the volume of the mammary glands. When determining the right technique for you, the following are important:

the degree of sagging
breast size and shape
the size and position of the areola
the elasticity and quality of the skin, the amount of excess skin
Variants of the operative incision:

around the areola - concentric lifting
vertically down from the areola to the mammary fold
horizontally along the bend

Anesthesia: Most often - general

Stay: The operation can be performed on an outpatient basis or with a stay of up to 2 days in a health facility.

Postoperative effects:
Temporary discomfort, pain, swelling, bruising. Temporarily or permanently altered sensitivity of the skin of the breasts and nipples.

Risks:
Development of rough scars. Necrosis of the areola and nipple. Necrosis of skin areas. Asymmetry in the positioning of the nipples. Infection. Loss of breast tenderness. Aspirin is prohibited 7 days before surgery because it increases the risk of bleeding during and after surgery.
