Breast Lift in Lake County, FL

Breast LiftSurgery

Breast lift surgery is a surgical procedure that raises the breasts and re-positions the nipples. Often the surgeon will use breast implants and possibly liposuction to replace lost volume and sculpt the breast to a more youthful and perky appearance. The following is a general description of the breast lift procedure. However, each patient has unique needs and as a result, the procedure is adjusted to accommodate those needs. During the procedure, the surgeon will make an incision around the areola, (leaving the nerves and blood vessels attached in most cases). Two other incisions are made from the base of the areola downward to the fold area of the breast where the breast meets the abdomen. And lastly, an incision is made along the fold of the breast, again where the breast meets the abdomen.

The excess skin between the two downward incisions is completely removed, and excess fat and glands are carefully removed from the breast using liposuction. During this part of the procedure, the surgeon will reshape and contour the breasts, and possibly use breast implants. In the final stages of the procedure, the surgeon sutures the areola and nipple in it’s new higher position, draws the bottom of the breast together with what now appears as a single incision, and closes the incision in the fold of the breast to complete the procedure.
