Miami Breast lift (Mastopexy), Miami Breast Reduction

Women can reshape and resize their breasts to reverse the signs of aging. Miami Breast lift and breast reduction procedures performed at Coral Gables Cosmetic Center in South florida near Fort Lauderdale provide women with contour and shape, volume and fullness. As women age, the weakened elasticity of their skin becomes most evident in their breasts. A mastoplexy also known as (breast lift) returns breasts to a "perky" and full shape, and restores patients' confidence by vastly improving their appearance.

Breast Lift Surgery Positive Results

Breastfeeding, fluctuations in weight and the general aging process all take their toll on a woman's shape. Drooping, saggy breasts that have lost their volume and contours are uncomfortable and an undeniable sign of a woman's age. Breast lift surgery is designed to reverse the impact of time and give women a more aesthetic shape, with firmer breasts that are in a better position. Many women choose to combine a breast lift with breast implants, meaning they undergo one surgery yet benefit from the enhancements both procedures provide.

Breast Lift Surgery Procedure

The most common breast lift surgery procedure involves an anchor-shaped incision, which wraps around the nipple, then along the bottom of the breast and inframammary fold. Excess skin and tissue are removed at the incision site, and if required the nipple and areola are repositioned to sit higher on the breast. The time required for the surgery depends on the amount of lift being sought, the individual patient, and whether breast implants are being included in the procedure.

Recovering from Breast Lift Surgery

Similar to most other surgical procedures, there is a recovery period to be expected after having breast lift surgery. Patients are recommended to plan for a week off work, and for two-weeks post surgery can experience some swelling, bruising, and soreness. To ease discomfort pain medication can be prescribed. To speed the healing process, patients wear a supportive garment that controls swelling and protects the incision site. The results of a breast lift become fully evident after approximately four weeks. Scars will fade into a pale line when treated in accordance with your physician's directions. Patients will be checked regularly by their Coral Gables board-certified physician during their recovery period.
