Breast Lift Surgery In NJ For Youthful-Looking Breasts

Breast lifts are the gold standard to address drooping, lax skin around the breasts. Breast lift surgery is commonly associated with mommy makeovers, since many mothers opt for breast lifts due to the physical changes from pregnancy and breastfeeding. However, breast lift surgery may be ideal for any patient experiencing sagging breasts. Our New Jersey plastic surgeon specializes in breast lift surgery to raise and reshape the breasts for a more youthful-looking appearance.

What Causes Drooping Breasts?

There are many factors that can contribute to sagging breasts. Pregnancy and breastfeeding are well-known causes, but weight fluctuations may also play a role. Additionally, our skin inevitably begins to lose firmness and elasticity as we age, leading to drooping. In some cases, patients may simply have lower breasts due to genetics.

What Is A Breast Lift?

Breast lift surgery is designed to reposition sagging breasts by subtly lifting them to a higher position. The nipples and surrounding areolas can also be reshaped and repositioned for youthful-looking results.

There are multiple breast lift techniques that can be performed, depending on your individual procedure goals, as well as the extent of sagging and drooping.

Below are the three most common types of breast lifts:

• Doughnut Breast Lift: Ideal for mild-to-moderate breast sagging. The incision is placed around the areola.
• Lollipop Breast Lift: Ideal for moderate sagging. Incisions are made around the areola and vertically down to the base of the breast.
• Anchor Breast Lift: Ideal for moderate-to-severe sagging. An incision is placed along the base of the breast, along with a vertical incision to the natural crease of the breast and a small incision on the areola border.

What Can I Expect After Breast Lift Surgery?

Breast lift surgery can yield transformative, natural-looking results. Patients usually return to work within 1-2 weeks of their breast lift. A compression bra will be supplied to help hold your breasts in place to promote proper recovery. Stitches are typically removed within 1-2 weeks. Pain medication can be prescribed to reduce any discomfort.

Can My Breast Lift Be Combined With Breast Implants?

Breast lift surgery can be combined with breast implants for comprehensive results. Breast implants can add natural-looking size to your breasts, while a breast lift can reduce sagging and reshape the breasts for a fuller, more youthful look.
