What Is A Breast Lift?
A breast lift removes excess skin and tightens tissue for a firmer, more youthful look. It's ideal for women who've experienced changes in breast firmness and shape due to breastfeeding, weight loss, aging, or gravity. At Gulf Coast Plastic Surgery in Pensacola, FL, the latest techniques are used to customize the surgery to the specific level of sagging and the desired outcomes, aiming for the best possible results.
What Is the Surgical Technique?
A breast lift typically takes two hours or more, depending on the complexity of the breast sag, and is usually performed under general anesthesia. The surgery involves one of two common incision techniques: the anchor technique (inverted-T) or vertical incisions. During the procedure, excess skin, fat, and tissue are removed. The remaining skin is tightened, and the breasts are repositioned to appear higher, younger, and healthier. Often, the areola size is also reduced to better fit the new breast shape. If discussed beforehand, implants or a fat transfer may be added to enhance volume. If only a lift is performed and additional fullness is desired, augmentation with implants can be planned for a later date.
What Are the Benefits of A Breast Lift?
A breast lift is personalized to your specific needs and goals and has multiple aesthetic and functional benefits, including:
- Lifting the breasts for a younger, perkier look
- Reducing sagging and drooping
- Improving the fullness, form, and overall aesthetics of the breasts
- Correcting breast asymmetry (one breast is different than the other)
- Enhancing breast firmness
- Reducing irritation under the breasts
- Resizing and reshaping the areolas
Gulf Coast Plastic Surgery Reviews
Dr. Leveque performed my tummy tuck and breast augmentation. I am almost two weeks out of surgery and recovering beautifully thanks to the support from her staff and careful care instructions. Leading up to the procedure I was well educated by Dr. Leveque and the staff at GCPS. The surgery itself was just fine, I was well prepared and went home the same day. My incisions are remarkably small! I know they will heal well. My post op visits have also been so helpful. I had initially had a quote from another surgeon and opted to come here. I am so glad that so did.
The environment is relaxed, comfortable and quiet. Everyone I come in contact with is friendly and respectful. My nurse is pleasant and warm and answers my questions with knowledge and care.
