The results of a breast lift are an elevated and fuller breast contour or an areola that is desired size and at the correct height on the breast.

The procedure is done under general anesthesia. Pain is minimal.

There will be scarring around the areola, and in a vertical line from the areola to the crease below the breast. Scars flatten and fade with time. In some patients there is also a scar in the breast fold.

The patient wears a supportive bra for 6 weeks and light activities may be resumed in 7-10 days.

Asymmetry – Breasts are typically not perfectly symmetrical before this procedure, and may not be after the procedure

Malpostion of the Nipple

Sagging may reviver over time.

Excess skin is excised. The areola is repositioned higher and the size of the areola is reduced. The breast is reshaped into a more desirable contour.
