Breast procedure
Also known as “mastopexy”, is a surgical procedure where we raise and reshape your breasts to give them a firmer, rounder look. The procedure also removes extra skin around your breast and reduces the size of your areola. This surgery can elevate the breasts to a higher, more youthful position and restore firmness to this area. If you’re dissatisfied with changes in your breast shape, fullness, and position, this procedure may be able to help restore your figure.
A breast lift can provide several benefits for women who are unhappy with the appearance of their breasts. The procedure can improve breast symmetry, lift and reshape sagging breasts, and reduce the size of the areola. Breast lift surgery can also improve the overall contour of the breast, resulting in a more youthful and natural-looking appearance.
As with any surgical procedure, there are risks associated with breast lift surgery. These include bleeding, infection, scarring, and adverse reactions to anesthesia. There is also a risk of complications related to the breast tissue itself, such as reduced nipple sensation, changes in breast shape or size, and asymmetry. Patients should carefully consider the potential risks and benefits of the procedure before making a decision.
Breast lift surgery is generally considered safe when performed by a qualified, experienced surgeon in a properly equipped and accredited facility. However, as with any surgery, there is always a risk of complications, and it is important for patients to be fully informed of the risks and benefits of the procedure before making a decision.
The recovery period following breast lift surgery typically takes several weeks. Patients may experience some pain and discomfort, as well as swelling and bruising, in the days following surgery. Patients will need to avoid strenuous physical activity for several weeks and will need to wear a special supportive bra to help the breasts heal and maintain their shape.
The cost of breast lift surgery can vary depending on a variety of factors, including the surgeon’s fees, the extent of the procedure, and the location of the surgery. In the United States, the cost of a breast lift can range from $10,000 to $15,000 or more.
The cost of the procedure in Mexico is often significantly lower than in the United States, with prices ranging from 40% to 60% less. However, it is important to ensure that the surgeon and facility meet high standards of safety and care.
Comparison to similar procedures and procedure details
Breast lift surgery is often performed in conjunction with other procedures, such as breast augmentation or breast reduction surgery. Breast augmentation involves the use of implants to increase breast size, while breast reduction surgery is used to reduce the size of overly large breasts. Non-surgical options for breast enhancement include injectable fillers and fat transfer procedures, which involve transferring fat from other areas of the body to the breasts.
The breast lift procedure typically involves making incisions in the breast tissue and reshaping the breast tissue to lift and reshape the breasts. The incisions can be made in different locations, depending on the patient’s anatomy and the extent of the procedure. The surgeon will then carefully position the breast tissue to create a more lifted and youthful appearance. The entire procedure typically takes two to three hours to complete, and patients are usually able to go home the same day or the next day.
