Say goodbye to sagging breasts with Breast Lift Surgery

Time changes everything; factors like pregnancy, weight fluctuations and ageing do take a toll on a woman’s breast size and shape. As skin loses its firmness, breasts can begin to sag. Breast Lift Surgery also known as Mastopexy is a popular cosmetic surgery procedure which helps raise and reshape the breasts to give them a firmer and more youthful look.

There are many different techniques available to perform breast lift surgery. However the surgery generally involves removing excess skin from around the breast and moving the nipples and areola up to a higher position to give the breasts a more firm appearance. The exact technique used for your surgery will depend on your goals, anatomy and objectives.

Breast lift cosmetic surgery generally takes between one and a half to three hours to perform and is often performed under TIVA (Total Intravenous Anaesthesia). An ideal candidate for undergoing breast lift surgery is the one who understands the procedure thoroughly and has realistic expectations of the results which can be achieved.

Having breast lift plastic surgery should not interfere with breast feeding in the future as the surgery leaves the milk ducts intact. However, if you are thinking about having children in the future it can be a good idea to postpone the operation until afterwards because pregnancy often stretches the breasts which can reduce the benefits of the surgery.

Breast Uplift surgery is likely to carry a low complication rate if it is performed by a good cosmetic surgeon despite being a relatively complex procedure. The most likely side effects of breast lift surgery being some bruising and swelling. Some patients also tend to experience a loss of sensation around the nipples for some time post surgery but in most cases this generally tends to recede over a few weeks to a few months.
Post recovery you can generally expect to be up and about in one to two days. However recovery does take time and it is advisable to take at least one week off work to rest. You should also avoid lifting anything heavy or anything above the head for a few weeks. Sex should also be avoided for about 1 week and strenuous sports for at least a month.

It should also be noted that many women choose to combine their breast lift surgery with either breast enlargement or breast reductions surgery to achieve both the breast size and shape that they desire.
