With the natural effects of childbirth or aging on the breast skin and volume lost, a woman's breasts may lose their youthful, lifted appearance. This drooping or sagging of the nipple and skin can be reversed with a Breast Lift Surgery (Mastopexy), which removes the excess skin and reconstructs the supporting structures of the breast and lifts the nipple to a higher position on the chest wall. A Breast Augmentation can also be preformed simultaneously with Mastopexy. This will give the breast a fuller appearance. Saline or silicone implants could be used as well and placed in a submuscular vs. subglandualr pocket. Please ask Dr. Broujerdi which type of implant and pocket would best suit you anatomical needs and give you a more natural appearance.
There are mainly three types of Mastopexy procedures preformed by Dr. Broujerdi based on the degree of nipple droop and skin excess. A Periareolar Mastopexy (Circumareolar) is a breast lift where the finial incision is around the Nipple Areoler Complex (NAC). This procedure is indicated when the nipple droop and skin excess is in minor to moderate degree. A Vertical Mastopexy (Lollipop Lift), the finial incision falls around the NAC and a vertical incision from the areola down to the breast fold. A patient with moderate to sever nipple droop and excess skin would be a good candidate for this lift. A Wise Pattern Mastopexy (Anchor Lift) is a breast lift where the finial incisions are the same as a vertical lift plus an incision line along the breast fold. This lift is indicated for a patient with severe nipple droop and excess skin. Please as Dr. Broujerdi which type of breast lift would suit you the best.
Procedure is usually preformed as an out-patient surgery in an accredited ambulatory surgical center or hospital. Dr. Broujerdi prefers seeing his patients the next day for follow up. You should expect a minimum of one week of down time after this procedure, some patient will require longer healing period. Dr. Broujerdi’s professional office staff will assist with post surgical care information.
