How is a Breast Lift Performed?
The surgery typically involves:
Consultation & Planning – Assessment of breast tissue, skin quality, and desired results.
Anesthesia – Usually performed under general anesthesia.
Incision Technique – Options include:
- Periareolar (around the areola)
- Vertical (lollipop-shaped)
- Anchor-shaped (for more extensive lifts)
Reshaping & Lifting – Excess skin is removed, and breast tissue is reshaped. Nipples are repositioned if needed.
Closing Incisions & Recovery – Sutures are applied, and recovery begins.
The procedure usually takes 2–3 hours, with most patients returning home the same day.
