Breast Lift Treatment
A breast lift is a surgical procedure performed by a plastic surgeon to change the shape of your breasts. During a breast lift, excess skin is removed and breast tissue is reshaped to raise the breasts. And Slimfit Clinic is one of the best clinic to provide breast lift treatment in Siliguri.
What Is Breast Lift ?
A breast lift or Mastopexy is a procedure performed to tighten the breasts. Whether due to age or gravity, a woman’s breasts start sagging and lose their youthful look. A breast lift corrects this by restoring the per-kiness of the breasts. There are a lot of steps that go into making this lift complete.
Why Breast lift?
- You have loss of youthful breast contour
- Your breasts have started to sag due to pregnancy or breastfeeding
- Your breasts have started looking droopy due to weight fluctuations, natural ageingor any other heredity reasons.
- Your breasts are flatter, have an elongated shape or look pendulum shaped when hanging freely.
- When you are not wearing a bra, your nipples fall under the breast crease.
- The areolas and nipples point downwards.
- You have stretched skin and extremely large areolas.
- One of your breasts falls lower than other.
candidate for a breast lift
- Breasts that are pendulous but adequate in size.
- Breasts that lack substance or firmness.
- Nipples and areolas that point downward, especially if they are positioned below the breast crease.
- Breasts that appear different from each other; one breast may appear firm and well positioned while the other does not.
- Breasts that are not equal in size.
- Breasts that are relatively small.
- Breasts that are large and heavy can be lifted, but the results may not be as long-lasting as a breast lift performed on smaller breasts; the weight of larger breasts works against surgical changes.
breast lift Treatment PROCEDURE
A mastopexy is performed under general anesthesia or intravenous sedation in a hospital, free standing surgical center or surgeon’s office equipped with a surgical suite. Different techniques for removing breast skin and reshaping the breast determine the location of the incisions and resulting scars. Your surgeon will select a technique based on your breast size and shape, areola size and position, degree of breast sagging, skin quality and elasticity and how much extra skin you have.
- Your plastic surgeon will remove excess breast skin and shift the nipple and areola to a higher position.
- If your areola has become stretched, it can now be reduced in size.
- Skin that was formerly located above the areola is brought down and together, beneath the breast, to reshape the breast.
- Your surgeon will remove excess skin and close your incisions, tightening the skin, sewing the breast back together and placing sutures deep in the breast tissue to support the new breast position for a longer period of time.
- Scars are usually hidden under the breasts, although some light scarring may be seen on top of the breast.
- The nipples and areolas remain attached to underlying mounds of tissue, and this usually allows for the preservation of sensation and the ability to breastfeed.
- In some patients, it may be possible to avoid the horizontal incision beneath the breast as well as the vertical incision that runs from the bottom edge of the areola to the breast crease. If you are a good candidate for a modified technique, your plastic surgeon will discuss this with you.
