Application/Action
Breast lift (mastopexy) can be achieved through a variety of techniques depending on your breasts.

The procedure is performed under general anesthesia and there are three basic types of accesses: Translated with DeepL.com (free version)
During surgery and under general anesthesia, the mass gland is lifted and reshaped in order to improve the contour of the breast. The nipple and areola are repositioned to a naturally more youthful height. If necessary, the enlarged nipples are reduced by excising excess skin from the perimeter. In addition, the excess skin of the rest of the breast is also removed in order to restore the loss of elasticity. After reshaping your breasts and removing the excess skin, the breast is sutured together in several levels to support the new breast. These are all internal and you will not need to remove stitches yourself. The incisions are permanent, but in most cases will discolour and improve significantly over time.

Post-operatively, you will have gauze or bandages on the incisions that will be gradually reduced. If drains are used, these will be removed in one or two days at the latest. You will need to wear an elastic bandage or bra to minimize swelling and support your breasts during healing.In most cases, patients return home that evening or the next day at the latest.
