Breasts that sag shapelessly on the chest can be equally deflating to a woman’s sense of confidence about her feminine beauty. Firm and perky breasts are a characteristic of a youthful figure, but over time, gravity, aging, weight fluctuation, and childbearing can all cause the breasts and nipples to droop and drift downward. While exercise and diet can tone and shape the body, no amount of toning can restore projection and firmness to breasts that have lost their structure and elasticity.

As millions of satisfied breast lift patients have discovered, you don’t have to live with the disappointment of sagging, shapeless breasts. A breast lift( mastopexy) can markedly rejuvenate your body’s contour by restoring youthful lift, projection, and firmness to the breasts. While a lift alone may achieve your aesthetic goals, many women choose to combine a breast lift with breast augmentation in a single surgery to give their breasts the fuller, shapelier curves they desire. This rewarding procedure will restore the youthful beauty of your breasts and allow you to wear tops, swimsuits, and lingerie with greater confidence.
The Breast Lift Procedure
In a breast lift procedure, Dr. Laufer removes excess breast skin and and elevates the breasts and nipples into a more youthful position. For women who who would like to add volume to their breasts, as well, a breast lift procedure may be combined with breast augmentation in a single procedure using an innovative technique in which Dr. Laufer and his colleagues developed. With this technique, saline implants or silicone gel implants are inserted into the submuscular or subfascial spaces.The breast lift itself consists of lifting the breast parenchyma(the gland) and securing it in its lifted position while allowing the skin “envelop” to redrape itself(unlike other techniques which tighten the breasts by excising the skin excess and closing it under tension).Thus you do not rely on the stretched out skin to be the sole support of the breasts.
Breast lift surgery is a 2 to 3 hour outpatient procedure that is performed while a patient is under general anesthesia. Dr. Laufer performs surgery at his private facility in Dunedin, Florida, where patients are monitored and cared for by board certified physician anesthesiologists and Dr. Laufer’s highly skilled team of medical professionals.
Breast Lift Recovery
Your breasts may be swollen and bruised for a few days, but Dr. Laufer will prescribe pain medication to relieve any discomfort. Most women can return to work in one week and resume strenuous exercise in about one month or when Dr. Laufer advises.
Breast lift surgery has a very high satisfaction rate among patients who have undergone the procedure. While the results are typically long-lasting, gravity and aging will continue to effect the appearance of the breasts over time.
