Breast Lifting

Breast lift operations are surgical interventions that provide solutions for sagging breasts. Sagging breast mostly occurs due to deformation resulting from breastfeeding, gravity effects over time, or frequent weight gain and loss cycles. In addition, sagging may occur in underdeveloped breasts at early ages.

It is usual to perform the lift operations in combination with breast augmentation because the skin overlying the volumetrically problematic breast tissue creates a saggy appearance.

Breast lift is often performed simultaneously with breast augmentation or breast reduction operations. During the preliminary examination, it is clarified whether to use implant, fat injection or just breast lift according to the expectations of the patient’s operation. The condition of the breast tissue and the excess of the skin are examined, and the operation is planned. The operation of breast augmentation under general anesthesia begins primarily with reduction of the areola area. The incision is made using the vertical scarless central pedicle technique. Then the skin and the underlying breast tissue are handled separately. Considering the possibility of breastfeeding in the future, the breast tissue is adjusted and straightened, the form is restored. Breast skin is closed as loose or tight depending on the new inner structure.

The thing to consider here is that breast lift operation will not change the breast size. It will only restore the original form of the breasts and lift them, then the procedure is completed. If the breasts over or under-sized, desired sizes can be achieved within the same operation. Breast augmentation, breast reduction or fat transfer to breast may be included to achieve this.

The most natural methods are preferred, leaving the least number of scars for the patients of breast lift operations. For breast lift operations that must be done with an aesthetic perspective, we use the scar-free vertical central pedicle technique.This technique, which also considers health conditions in addition to an aesthetic look, enables the whole structure to be fed by blood circulation, and provide advantages like maintaining the sensation of areola. 

Breast lift operations must be planned in accordance with the shape of the breast, elasticity level of the skin, skin quality and current excess skin after examining the existing sagging degree of the patient. The incision performed on the breast is planned in accordance with this, and the breast is then reshaped by forming and lifting the breast tissue. Excess skin is removed from the area and sutured. Sutures are performed according to the new form of the breast and all incisions are closed by using minimal sutures or a skin adhesive.

Patients can return home on the same day of operation day, and they can return to their daily life within 1 week, at most, with minimal scar, minimal pain, and a fast recovery period. Don’t forget to check VitaNova’s special travel and experience packages that you can enjoy after your surgery.
