Mastopexy
Overview
A breast lift is an aesthetic surgery to raise boobs by removing extra breast skin, tightening tissues, reshaping, raising areola and nipple to forward position and make upper portion fuller. It is also termed as mastopexy.
It is done to give breasts a more buoyant, perkier, firmer and youthful appearance. It restores feminine proportion. After a breast lift surgery, your boobs will look more round. This procedure also reduces large and stretched areola.
What to expect?
uring the recovery period bandages and dressings are applied to the incisions. You may have to wear support bra or elastic bandage to support your breasts and minimize swelling. A thin tube will be placed temporarily to drain excess of fluid and blood.
The result of surgery is visible immediately, but the post-surgical swelling resolves over time. Also, the incision lines fade with time. The final result takes a few months to appear. The breast lift outcome is long lasting but aging, gravity, weight fluctuations, pregnancy, and breastfeeding may affect the result. If you want to retain breast lift for a longer time, maintain your weight and follow a healthy lifestyle.
