Understanding Breast Lift Surgery in Glendale

Over time, factors such as pregnancy, nursing, and gravity impact breast appearance. Mastopexy, or breast lift surgery, is a sophisticated surgical procedure designed to raise and reshape sagging breasts, restoring their youthful contour and firmness.

Procedure Overview

During a breast lift, Saul R. Berger M.D. Inc. can:

• Raise and reshape sagging breast tissue
• Reposition nipples and areolas
• Reduce areola size if desired
• Potentially combine with breast implants for enhanced volume

Ideal Candidates for Breast Lift

The most suitable candidates for mastopexy are healthy, emotionally stable women with realistic expectations. Optimal results are typically achieved in women with:

• Small, sagging breasts
• Stretched skin from pregnancy or weight changes
• Breasts that have lost volume and firmness

Surgical Technique

Saul R. Berger M.D. Inc. employs precision surgical techniques to perform breast lifts. The procedure involves carefully placed incisions to remove excess skin and reshape breast tissue. Potential techniques include:

• Traditional mastopexy with anchor-shaped incisions
• Concentric or "doughnut" mastopexy for minimal sagging
• Customized approach based on individual breast anatomy

Recovery and Expectations

Patients can expect some initial discomfort and swelling following the procedure. Recovery typically involves:

• Wearing a surgical support bra for 3-4 weeks
• Limited physical activity for approximately one month
• Gradual resolution of swelling and potential temporary nipple sensitivity changes

Potential Considerations

While breast lift surgery can dramatically improve breast appearance, patients should understand that:

• Permanent surgical scars are inevitable
• Future pregnancies may impact surgical results
• Results are not permanent and will continue to be affected by aging and gravity
