Breast Lift Surgery: Need & Procedure

Breasts influence a major part of one's anatomy and beauty. Small or sagging breasts can often make one feel self-conscious to the point that one begins to doubt oneself and compare oneself to other people. Large breasts can be excruciatingly painful, and the pain is continual. To support them, the back, shoulders, and neck muscles never have a chance to unwind since they constantly operate at maximum tension. Push-ups or bust lifter shapewear can be a solution, but they won't last over the long term. One requires breast lift surgery to permanently give the breasts a boost and youthful contour.

If one is thinking about getting a breast lift or deciding if it's right for them. Dr. Shilpi Bhadani, the best breast uplift surgeon in Gurgaon at SB Aesthetics, has provided some important information on breast uplift surgery and the numerous long-term advantages of this process.

What is Breast Lift Surgery?

Breast lifts sometimes referred to as mastoplasties, raise the breasts by removing extra skin and tightening the tissue around them to create a more youthful breast contour. The surgery may also be combined with other forms of plastic surgery, including breast augmentation, breast reduction, and liposuction.

The following criteria will be used to choose the best course of action for an individual:

• Breast size and form 
• How big and where are the areolas are
• How much breast tissue has sagged
• Skin elasticity and quality
• The extent of the smooth skin.

What Are Step Procedures Involved In A Breast Lift?

• Anaesthesia

For one’s comfort, medications are given throughout the surgical procedure. There are two methods of sedation: intravenous and general anaesthesia. After reviewing the patient's medical history and present state, the surgeon would advise the patient to choose that course of action.

• Making Incisions

Three different incision kinds exist which are as such:

• Close to the areola
• Around the areola and straight down to the breast crease from the areola
• Around the areola, down from the breast crease in a horizontal direction, and across the breast crease (inverted T).

After the surgeon successfully completes the incisions: 

• The underlying breast tissue is raised and sculpted to improve the shape and firmness of the breasts
• The nipple and areola are raised to a more youthful, natural height
• If necessary, the skin around swollen areolas might be removed to minimise size
• Extra breast skin is removed to compensate for the lack of suppleness.

• Closing of Incisions

After the breasts are reshaped, and the extra fat is removed, the residual fat is compressed as the incisions are closed.

Some of the incision lines that cause the breast crease are hidden within the breast's natural contours, while others are visible on the breast's surface. Although permanent, incision lines typically weaken and become more pronounced over time.

Many females strive for the smallest scar possible. The plastic surgeon may recommend incisions that align with one’s anatomy.

Sutures are placed deep inside the breast tissue to develop and safeguard newly formed breasts. Skin adhesives or surgical tape may be used to protect the skin sutures.

After the Breast Lift Surgery

At the follow-up appointment on the first or second day following the breast lift, the surgeon will take the bandages, and any drains off. Additionally, the colour and blood supply of the nipple will be examined.

One should prepare to feel a little discomfort for a few days after the surgery. The doctor will likely advise one to wear a special bra or pressure garment to give the support one needs as one heals. In the first week, one might also need to take painkillers.

• If one has breast implants, be cautious not to cause any impact.

The surgeon will remove all the stitches (if any) in two weeks. Nowadays, all sutures are absorbable and don't need to be removed. One’s breast size and shape will continue to improve with time.

The symmetry of the two breasts could differ slightly. In that case, the plastic surgeon will perform a touch-up to help realign the nipple as necessary. During recovery, it's crucial to limit the activities as advised by the surgeon, and one should report any adverse effects or issues immediately. 

Navigating daily life may be challenging if one has breasts that are disproportionate or unusually small. Additionally, if someone is considering breast uplift surgery, they should see Dr. Shilpi Bhadani to find a solution, regardless of whether the breasts are just out of proportion to the rest of the body or the size is the source of ongoing suffering.
