Undoing the Results of Pregnancy with Breast Lifts

By Michael Reynolds


Breast lift involves lifting and reshaping the tits and positioning the nipple/areola to the best location on the breast. In plastic surgery the term for this surgery is Mastopexy.Patients may require breast lifts due to a range of factors. These may often include being born with torpedos that are droopy, breasts that fall after serious weightloss, and doubtless most commonly, bazongas that sag and fall in size after a few youngsters. As a general rule the torpedos become more droopy and smaller with each pregnancy that the mum has. The doctor's term for sagging is ptosis.

The pleasant news is that there are some excellent procedures that may reverse these changes and create lovely torpedos. This correction may involve merely a breast lift alone or a breast lift combined with a breast augmentation.

Who are applicants? The patient alone can decide if their knockers position or shape is a difficulty for them and wish to improve or change the overall shape and contour. The degree of breast lifting can be fairly minor or involve serious re-contouring. The breast enlargement is mostly done with a Mastopexy so as to make up for lost volume, in truth most women who have lost volume (their breasts have become smaller) opt to have their torpedos improved to a size that might be larger than the size they at first were, before they were pregnant.

Depending on the degree of breast sagging there are a variety of different breast lift DC strategies that can be tailored to what it is the patient's looking to reach and what their present breast shape needs. The lift may potentially involve only incisions round the areola (this is referred to as a circumareolar Mastopexy). This works really well for tits that need nominal lifting.

The commonest procedure that I perform involves an incision that goes round the areola and then straight down to the inframammary fold. Some call this a lollypop Mastopexy, as the incisions and scars look like that of a lollypop (the particular name for this operation is a circumvertical Mastopexy). The Mastopexy that is necessary to correct the best degree of sagging is called a full Mastopexy, which involves incisions round the areola, down to the inframammary fold, and then along the inframammary crease.

Manifestly a seasoned Plastic Surgeon will use the simplest strategy that will permit the necessary improvements. In my practice, in which I have done over fourteen-hundred breast lifts, I am looking for the surgery that will allow the best result with the absolute minimum amount of scars.

If breast augmentation is done simultaneously, it is vital that the breast enlargement be done first. This is because of the fact that the degree of breast lifting and skin resection will be modified by the tits being made larger. In addition, it's almost very unlikely in most patients, to pinpoint the right size of the implant for the boob enlargement, due to the fact that the tits are sagging and don't correctly show the size of the breast. This is because the breast implant and the breast tissue are not in the same place.

Not all San Diego Plastic Surgeons perform the surgery in the manner I do. I am assured however that in my hands this gives the absolute best result. The surgery is done with a pocket made for the breast enlargement created and an implant sizer placed in the pocket. At that point the skin is stapled together in a way that approximates the degree and sort of breast lift that will be done. Then the patient is set up by means of elevating the back of the operating room table. My nurses and I examine the patient in regards to boob size, the degree of lift, and the anticipated position of the nipple. In this fashion not only can the proper size of the implant be determined. At the same time, the breast lift and the degree of skin resection can also be properly evaluated without burning any bridges. Once the proper size and the correct degree of breast lift with perfect nipple positioning is determined, the tacking staples are removed after carefully marking the staple positions. The boob enhancement is then completed with the correct size implant and the permanent implant placed. Then, following the marks of the tacking staples, the breast lift is then performed.
