Introduction

Introduction to Breast Lift

Women who are bothered by a sagging chest area can undergo a breast lift at the Georgia Center for Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery. Led by board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Joshua R. Groves, our clinic has helped numerous women in Macon, Warner Robins, Houston County, Bibb County, and the surrounding areas achieve a more youthful appearance through breast lift procedures.

What is a Breast Lift?

A breast lift, sometimes referred to as a mastopexy, is a surgical procedure that involves removing and tightening skin in the chest area. This provides basically the same effects as a facelift, reducing sagging to create breasts that are more uplifted and youthful. A breast lift procedure is performed under anesthesia and typically takes less than 90 minutes.

What Are the Benefits of a Breast Lift?

Many women notice sagging breasts due to pregnancy, breastfeeding, weight loss, or aging. Sagging breasts are difficult to tone with exercise; however, a mastopexy procedure can easily restore them. In some cases, it may also result in the appearance of fuller breasts, even when implants are not added. Some other benefits of a breast lift include:

  • Can be performed along with another procedure, such as a breast augmentation
  • Performed on an outpatient basis
  • Long-lasting results

Who Are the Best Candidates for a Breast Lift?

You may want to consider a mastopexy if your sagging breasts cause you to feel self-conscious or unattractive. It’s essential to have realistic expectations, so speak candidly with Dr. Groves about your goals and review before-and-after photographs of other patients to ensure you understand exactly what can be accomplished through a breast lift procedure.

Before scheduling your breast lift procedure, Dr. Groves will discuss your health history to make sure you do not have any underlying health conditions, such as bleeding or clotting disorders, that would make surgery risky. He will also want to know about any medications you are taking, including supplements. Discuss with Dr. Groves any other surgeries you are considering, so that multiple procedures can be scheduled simultaneously.

step

What’s the First Step?

The first step toward achieving a more youthful, lifted appearance is to schedule a personalized consultation with Dr. Groves at the Georgia Center for Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery. During this one-on-one appointment, Dr. Groves will carefully evaluate your goals, assess the condition of your breast tissue, and discuss your medical history to determine if a breast lift is the right option for you.

You’ll have the opportunity to ask questions, review before-and-after photos of real patients, and explore whether combining a breast lift with other procedures—such as breast augmentation—may better achieve your aesthetic goals. From there, a customized treatment plan will be developed to meet your specific needs and achieve your desired outcomes.

What to Expect on the Day of Breast Lift Surgery

A breast lift requires general anesthesia to numb the chest area, along with at least one incision in each breast. Although it is performed as an outpatient procedure, you must still be monitored in our office for signs of infection or other complications that may require immediate attention.

Breast Lift Recovery

You must limit your activity for up to two weeks after a breast lift or longer if you are also having implants inserted. As with any surgical procedure, you may experience some tenderness and general discomfort; fortunately, this is easily managed with over-the-counter medication.
