Women of all ages with various breast concerns choose to have breast lift surgery. While some women’s breast are naturally less firm, many others find their breasts can lose their shape after pregnancy or breastfeeding. Equally, the ageing process, or weight loss can also result in skin losing its elasticity. As a general rule, if the line where your nipple sits lies below the beginning of the crease of the breasts you will benefit from breast lift surgery.
During the breast lift operation, excess skin from and around the area of dark tissue surrounding the nipple (and sometimes from under your breast) is removed. This creates a tighter cone of breast tissue and your nipple is moved to a higher position to give a more youthful and firm appearance.
You can expect firmer breasts that sit upright and do not sag. The nipple will sit higher on the breast, giving a more youthful appearance
Depending on the results you want to achieve and the size and shape of your breasts, your doctor may recommend a breast enlargement or breast reduction. Many women also choose to have a tummy tuck or liposuction to regain the body shape they have lost through childbirth or weight loss.
Breast lift patients are required to stay for 1-2 nights in the comfortable surroundings of a hospital. It is advisable that breast uplift patients take a two-week break from work.
