Breast lifts rejuvenate the breasts by trimming excess skin and tightening supporting tissues to achieve an uplifted, youthful contour. After a mastopexy, the breasts are higher on the chest and firmer to the touch. Breast lifts can also reposition and reduce the size of the areola, the dark skin surrounding the nipple, which may have stretched or drooped. Breast size does not change after a breast lift, nor does the fullness or roundness in the upper part of the breasts. Women who desire larger, smaller or more rounded breasts may want to consider a breast augmentation or breast reduction together with a breast lift.

Step 1 – Anesthesia Medications are administered for your comfort during the surgical procedure. The choices include intravenous sedation and general anesthesia. Your doctor will recommend the best choice for you. Step 2 – Flap techniques reposition a woman’s own muscle, fat and skin to create or cover the breast mound. Sometimes a mastectomy or radiation therapy will leave insufficient tissue on the chest wall to cover and support a breast implant. The use of a breast implant for reconstruction almost always requires either a flap technique or tissue expansion.

The “tummy tuck” procedure is also known as abdominoplasty. When executed correctly, this procedure can help remove excess skin and fat from around your abdomen. During this process, we can also tighten your abdominal wall at the same time, making the tummy tuck beneficial to both the aesthetic value as well as the functional purposes of your abdominal area. Widening of the muscles and fascia (rectus diastasis) that will happen over time can be corrected by bringing stretched muscle back together. It’s like tightening an internal corset.
