A Perky Disposition

Breast Lift at FusionMD Cosmetic Surgery

Aging, weight change, or other factors like pregnancy or breastfeeding can cause the breasts to lose their youthful shape and fullness. As a result, breasts may appear deflated or sit lower on the chest wall. A breast lift is a surgical procedure that involves reshaping the breasts and correcting the effects of skin laxity to create more youthful contours. A breast lift can deliver an overall younger appearance and allow clothing to fit better so you can feel confident and comfortable in your favorite bikini, LBD, or t-shirt.

Raise Your Cup to Better Contours

What is a Breast Lift?

A breast lift involves removing loose, excess skin and reshaping breast tissue to create a firmer feel, fuller appearance, and a more youthful position. There are a variety of breast lift techniques to allow for personalized treatment, depending on the size of your breasts and your desired outcome. In some cases, a breast lift can include repositioning the nipple-areolar complex, improving breast symmetry, or augmentation with implants or fat transfer.

Boost Your Spirit

What are the benefits of a Breast Lift?

At our practice in Miami breast lift procedures offer a boost in confidence as they deliver a more youthful appearance and increased fullness in the upper pole of the breast, as well as enhanced symmetry, a firmer feel, and a more attractive position of the nipple-areolar structure. In addition to its aesthetic benefits, a breast lift can alleviate back and neck discomfort caused by sagging.

Depending on each patient’s unique needs and goals, a breast lift can be combined with other procedures, such as breast augmentation or reduction. Results are long-lasting, and scarring is minimal, fading over time.

Prioritizing Your Personal Experience

Your Breast Lift Consultation

During your consultation, your cosmetic surgeon will ask questions about your concerns, medical history, and goals to determine if a breast lift is your ideal solution. If appropriate, they may recommend other procedures to be included in your treatment plan and educate you on specific techniques that may deliver your best results and experience. Together, you will design your treatment plan so that you can arrive on the day of your surgery feeling confident about your procedure.

Expert Techniques

Your Breast Lift Procedure

Your breast lift will be performed under general anesthesia, and you will be able to return home the same day as your procedure. There are several types of incision patterns that may be used, though the most common is an anchor incision. An anchor incision includes an incision around the areola, a vertical incision that runs down the lower portion of the breast to the crease, and a curved incision, which follows the natural crease at the bottom of the breast. Using this (or another) incision, your surgeon will meticulously remove sections of excess skin so that, upon closing them, the breast will sit higher on the chest wall, with increased volume in the upper pole.

Other breast lift incision types include a lollipop, donut, or crescent lift. The type of incision used will depend on how much excess skin is present as well as other factors, including any other procedures that may be included in your treatment. Most breast lift procedures take approximately two to three hours. As soon as surgery is complete, we will monitor you in a recovery room while the effects of the anesthesia subside. Once you are cleared, a close friend or family member will be able to drive you home, where you can begin your recovery in optimal comfort.

Look Forward to Looking Younger

Breast Lift Results

With a Breast Lift Miami patients at Fusion MD can enjoy permanent results, effectively resetting the clock on their breast contours for a rejuvenated, youthful appearance. While a breast lift cannot prevent future signs of aging, your breasts will forever appear more youthful than they would without a lift.

For the longest-lasting results, we recommend breast lifts for patients who do not plan to get pregnant and who are at or near their ideal weight, as pregnancy and significant weight change can impact results.

Elevate Your Outlook

Breast Lift Recovery and Aftercare

The first few days post-surgery may involve swelling, bruising, and discomfort, which will be manageable with pain medication and rest. You will need to wear a supportive surgical bra to minimize swelling and aid in the healing process. You will also need to refrain from strenuous activities for several weeks and follow your surgeon's instructions closely. While scars are inevitable, you can minimize their appearance with proper care. It may take several months for the final results to become apparent, at which point you can look forward to firmer, lifted, and more youthful-looking breasts as well as enhanced physical and emotional well-being.

Breast Lift Frequently Asked Questions

How long does a breast lift last?

While the results are considered permanent, most patients enjoy the full benefits of their breast lift for 10 to 15 years or longer.

What is better, a breast lift or augmentation?

Each type of breast procedure offers its own set of advantages. While a breast lift is intended to increase the appearance of youth in the breasts, it does not enhance volume like augmentation. For this reason, many patients choose to combine these procedures for comprehensive benefits.
