How does a breast lift work?

A breast lift, otherwise known as mastopexy, is a surgical procedure that rejuvenates and elevates sagging breasts. During the treatment, excess skin is removed, and the breast tissue is reshaped to create a firmer, more youthful contour. The nipples and areolas are repositioned to a higher, more aesthetically pleasing location.

This procedure does not significantly change the size of the breasts, but it can create a more youthful and perky appearance. It's a popular choice for women who want to address the negative impact of aging, pregnancy, or weight fluctuations on their breast shape and position.

During the consultation with Dr. Hyman, he will provide ample information regarding the details of the procedure.

Breast Lift Incisions and Scars

Dr. Hyman is experienced in a variety of mastopexy techniques. Depending on your specific situation, he may recommend one of the following surgical approaches:

Donut lift

As the name may suggest, donut lifts, also called periareolar lifts, involve a circular incision around the edge of the areola.

Lollipop lift

The lollipop lift, or vertical lift, involves a circular incision around the areola and a vertical incision running from the areola to the breast crease (inframammary fold).

Anchor lift

Anchor lifts involve three incisions and are primarily used for patients with severe sagging issues. The first incision is made around the edge of the areola, the second is made vertically from the areola to the breast crease, and the third is made along the inframammary fold.

Crescent lift

Crescent lifts involve a short incision made along the upper half of the areola. This technique is ideal for patients with only mild breast sagging.

No matter which breast lift surgery technique is used, Dr. Hyman will ensure your results are elegant and natural-looking, with scars as discreet as possible. While some breast lift incision methods, such as the crescent or periareolar options, are virtually invisible by design, other incision patterns are placed to be invisible, even in plunging necklines or bikini tops. Dr. Hyman recommends additional treatments to help reduce the appearance of scars, including creams and laser treatments, which can further enhance your beautiful results.

What is the Recovery for a Breast Lift?

Following the procedure, you will be given a soft, supportive bra to wear for the first week. A regular soft bra or sports bra without an underwire should be worn for the following three weeks. Most sutures placed during your breast lift surgery in New York City will dissolve on their own. Mild to moderate swelling is normal and will make the breasts appear larger for the first couple of weeks after surgery. You are encouraged to walk the day after surgery, but heavy exercise should be avoided for four weeks.
