What is Breast Lift Surgery?
Breast lift surgery also referred to as Mastopexy is a cosmetic procedure at Yuva Clinic Vadodara, where plastic surgeon Dr Sachin Shah removes excess skin and fat from the breasts to raise and reshape sagging breasts to give a lifted and youthful look. A breast lift is a safe and effective procedure. Over the years, factors such as pregnancy, nursing, and the force of gravity take their toll on a woman’s breasts. Their breasts lose their shape and firmness and begin to sag and the skin loses its elasticity. This procedure is designed to elevate the breasts and give them a more youthful appearance. A breast lift may also be completed in conjunction with breast enlargement surgery (breast augmentation).
- Elevate the breasts due to sagging caused by the effects of aging and pregnancy.
- Re-align the nipples/areolas if they point down or to the side.
- Firm the breasts if they have lost substance due to pregnancy and breast-feeding.
- Bring back natural shape and contour after weight loss.
You will need to take some time and do your due diligence in selecting the right cosmetic plastic surgeon for breast lift in Vadodara. Dr. Sachin Shah is board-certified and has extensive experience in breast reconstruction and enhancement to provide you with the desired outcome. He is one of the few plastic surgeons who can perform the vertical breast lift instead of the traditional anchor pattern. When it comes to personalized care and outstanding results, Dr. Sachin Shah stands apart from the crowd.
The breast lift surgical procedure usually takes two to three hours. For patients undergoing breast lift at Yuva Clinic Vadodara, cosmetic surgeon Dr. Sachin Shah uses a variety of customized techniques based on your existing breast tissue, excess skin to be removed and your cosmetic desires. He will recommend the type of breast lift that will achieve the best results with the least visible scar. The most common procedure is a vertical lift with two incisions along the edge of the areola and underside of the breast. Some patients, especially those with relatively small breasts and minimal sagging, may be candidates for modified procedures requiring less extensive incisions. One such procedure is the “doughnut lift (concentric) Mastopexy.” Recent innovations in breast lift techniques include minimal incision techniques.
In a “crescent breast lift,” a breast implant is done along with the breast lift. Thus a breast lift surgery can be combined with a breast enlargement or a breast reduction procedure depending upon the desired result. The cost of breast lift surgery in Vadodara depends upon such factors.
You will be discharged on the same day after the surgery. Rest and limited movement in order to speed up the healing process and recovery time is advised. Bandages are applied right after surgery to aid the healing process and to minimize movement of the breasts. Once the bandages are removed, you will need to wear a specialized surgical bra for several weeks. Oral medication is prescribed for minor pain associated with surgery. Many patients return to work in a week after breast lift surgery.
