About Breast Lift Surgery

 

Breast shape naturally changes over time, and many women find that lower, drooping breasts can be bothersome. Mastopexy, or breast lift and reduction surgery, can enhance clothing fit, comfort during exercise, and overall breast size. Aging, pregnancy, or weight loss can lead to sagging breast tissue, causing discomfort and insecurity.

 

A breast lift is similar to a breast reduction, but mainly skin is removed- and just a bit of breast tissue.   The goal is improved shape and comfort, allowing for a more ideal shape and better clothing choices, bra fitting and sports performance. Board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Michael Suzman offers surgical solutions to elevate the breasts to a higher, more symmetrical position, resulting in a more youthful appearance. A consultation at his offices in Westchester County, NY, Greenwich, CT, or Manhattan, NYC, can help determine the best treatment method for each patient.  He has cared for professional tennis players, golfers, and personal trainers as well as women who simply want an improved shape and appearance. 

Advanced 3D imaging with Crisalix 3D and Vectra allows patients to see accurate computer simulations of breast lift results. 

The surgery is performed as an outpatient procedure and takes less than 2 hours of anesthesia time. Patients can resume driving and normal activities within a week, and full exercise in 4-6 weeks.

Patient satisfaction rates are nearly 100%. With Dr. Suzman’s extensive experience in breast reconstruction, even those with a strong family history or high risk of breast cancer can safely undergo surgery, potentially reducing their risk.

 

 

Do I Qualify?

During your breast lift consultation, you will receive a thorough assessment where the surgeon will evaluate your current breast size and shape by taking measurements. The surgeon may also assess the breast symmetry, skin elasticity, and bone structure during your consultation. Candidates for breast lift surgery should be non-smokers in good health who have a least one of the following concerns:

  • Decreased breast volume
  • Altered breast shape
  • Pendulous breasts
  • Asymmetrical breasts
  • Large or stretched areolas
  • Downward pointing nipples
  • Asymmetry of size or imbalance of shape
  • Previous surgery or scars such as lumpectomy

 

Some of Dr. Suzman's innovations lead to faster recovery, less bruising and more long lasting shape - including:

  • Long acting local anesthetic blocks
  • Tranexamic acid bruising and bleeding prevention
  • Internal support sutures for improved shape 
  • No Drain Surgery! with internal support sutures
  • Body Jet water assisted liposuction and fat grafting for added volume without an implant
  • Scar minimization with VAC Pico and Preveena dressings and RescueMD DNA  Repair Complex  Scar and Recovery Serum
  • Outpatient Surgery in under 2 hours with NO overnight Stay or Private Duty Nurse required

Dr. Suzman has performed more that 2500 breast procedures and has the long term track record to deliver the results you seek.

 

 

 

 

Dr. Suzman and his team took care of me on 3 different occasions. He was careful to provide me with surgical options and risks so I could evaluate the procedures for myself. I would highly recommend Dr. Suzman.

T.M. Google

I would highly recommend Dr. Suzman to anyone. I have always wanted to do a breast lift, but was very nervous. Dr. Suzman was extremely thoughtful about the procedure, calming and not pushy at all. We went over the procedure and expected results in advance. I ended up doing a lift and fat transfer. The day of the surgery, he and his staff were very reassuring and attentive. The outpatient facility was excellent with top nurses and anesthesiologists. And the surgery itself was a success - results look very natural (which is what I wanted), I have little scarring and the recovery has been very smooth. Would enthusiastically recommend to anyone!

Dr. Suzman was an expert in gently removing my stitches. He was interested in me and explained everything about healing after a bad fall. I would go to him as a patient if I needed plastic surgery.

What to Expect

There are three different types of breast lift incisions that may be used depending on your unique factors. The doctor will choose one or more incision patterns for your operation based on the current size and elasticity of your breasts and areolas. After breast lift surgery, you will be wrapped in a sterile surgical dressing and a medical compression bra. We recommended that you wear something comfortable since your chest will be swollen and sore for approximately 1 – 2 weeks. All patients are advised to take it easy the first 2 – 3 weeks after surgery and avoid physical activities. A full recovery can take anywhere from 6 – 8 weeks. Please call our office immediately if you have any questions or concerns during your recovery.

Other Considerations

To give you the best results, we use only cutting-edge breast lift techniques and place incisions in areas of the breast that are less visible or easily covered. You will be given instructions on how to care for your surgical wounds during your recovery to speed your healing and minimize the appearance of scars, but all patients will have some degree of scarring.

In some cases, your best results will require moving the nipple to a higher position once the extra skin or stretched-out areola is repaired. This will improve the overall appearance.

During the initial consultation, we are happy to help you learn more about the differences between a breast lift and breast augmentation and give our opinion on which procedure is best for your goals. Some patients may have a breast augmentation combined with a breast lift to get a fuller and perkier bust.

Restore Your Bustline

If you have drooping breasts that make you feel uncomfortable and self-conscious, consider how you will feel after breast lift surgery to restore the appearance of your body. Please contact our office and schedule a consultation to learn more about the process of breast lift surgery and how a breast lift can benefit you.
