The breasts change in size and shape throughout a woman’s lifetime. The normal ageing process of the skin or weak connective tissue may lead to sagging and flaccid breasts as a result of advancing age. Other factors like weight fluctuations, pregnancy and breastfeeding often reduce the volume of the breasts accordingly by overstretching the skin and shrinking the gland and adipose tissue. With a breast lift surgery this unpleasant development can be counteracted. In order to maintain the natural shape of the breast tightening of the skin envelope in combination with displacement of the areola can be performed. The procedure offers an effective solution to lift and reshape droopy breasts and helps you to restore self-confidence and a new and more satisfied life.
Depending on the diagnosis various techniques can be chosen. In very mild cases of breast sagginess an incision is made around the areola (so-called periareolar lift). In addition, for women with mild to moderate breast ptosis a vertical incision — also known as Lollipop lift — is required and those with moderate to severe breast ptosis require the classic technique named inverted T where an incision is also made in the breast fold. In order to achieve optimal result it has the highest priority to apply a gentle procedure with minimal scarring that is tailored to your needs and expectations.
The new breasts should not only meet your expectations, but also be more proportional to the rest of the body and complement your overall appearance. If you also want more breast volume, the procedure can also be combined with the insertion of silicone breast implants.
The surgery takes about 3-4 hours and is performed under general anaesthetic. Following surgery a special support bra is measured and needs to be worn for 6 weeks. The drains placed during surgery are normally removed 1-2 days and stitches are removed after 2 weeks. Work can be resumed after 1-2 weeks. Sports, high reaching and heavy exertions should be avoided for 6 weeks.
During a personal consultation I will discuss at full length your expectations of the "new" breast and to what extent they can be met. In order to provide you with the best possible treatment it is very important that you know exactly what you want so that all options can be discussed and a bespoke solution can be found to cater your needs.
