Breast Lifting Surgery Information

The operation is always performed under general anesthesia and requires hospitalization between 1-3 days, depending on the length and complexity of operations. One thing worth noting is that breast lift surgery involves the presence of scars of incisions made for data reduction of excess skin. There are three types of surgical breast lift, which, depending on the degree of drooping skin, will allow three types of scars.

First of all, periareolar scars are the result of a method through which the correction of low-drooping breasts (skin breakdown) is applied. An excision of a ring of skin around the areola is possible through this modern technique, leaving only a scar around the areola. This scar is almost invisible in the coming months. In case of a bigger breast ptosis and the desire for a higher breast volume, breast enlargement surgery should be performed in combination with the lifting intervention. There are also people who have small breasts and decide to undergo ptosis correction and enlargement of the breasts at the same time.

There is also the risk of vertical scars, which can be experienced after a moderate degree of ptosis (falling), which require removal of excess skin. In this case resuspension of the breast's pectoral muscle is also possible, giving it greater durability for this method. Scars that remain will become undetectable within the next two years. This method is widely used because it is only providing a natural breast shape and has a great stability over time. The scars that remain after the intervention are placed around the areola. These scars will become undetectable within the two years following the intervention. Before surgery should make a complete set of analysis, which will detect any blood coagulation in your body. The intervention should be scheduled outside the menstrual period, while the recovery process can last for up to 10 days.
Before the actual intervention, at least one consultation with your surgeon is required, during which you will discuss the need for the intervention, the magnitude and complexity and the risks involved by this type of surgery. All interventions on breast examination involve great attention from both sides and performing a mammogram, or at least a breast ultrasound session. Breast lift ptosis intervention addresses to women experiencing loss of skin elasticity and firmness of breasts after pregnancy, breastfeeding or a significant weight loss. The breast lift may be associated with reduction mammoplasty and augmentation mammoplasty at the same time. If breast ptosis is minimal it can be corrected by a simple breast implant with minimal scars, which remain almost invisible after performing a breast lift intervention.
Postoperatively, the shape of the new breasts will remain constant as long as there are no significant changes in weight. However, pregnancy and aging are very likely to change the shape and size of the breasts for any woman. After a few years, if the breast appearance is not satisfactory you can choose an additional breast lift intervention.
