Candidates: How to know if a breast lift is right for you

Double board-certified plastic surgeon, Dr. Reinblatt, recommends a breast lift to women who:

  • Are over the age of 18
  • Are not currently breastfeeding
  • Are not pregnant or planning to become pregnant
  • Have drooping breasts and stretched skin due to pregnancy, weight loss and age

Women who have experienced changes in the fullness or volume of their breasts as a result of pregnancy, breastfeeding, weight loss, or the natural aging process may be excellent candidates for a breast lift in Westchester.

If you are in good overall physical and mental health, are finished having children, and would like to restore your breasts to a more youthful position, a breast lift could be the perfect option to enjoy your voluptuous curves once more.

Type of Breast Lifts

Standard lift Best for small breasts

The standard breast lift involves an anchor-shaped incision near the areola, down the front of the breasts and across the bottom breast crease. Although it's suitable for most patients, it's the ideal approach for women with smaller breasts.

Donut mastopexy Best for large breasts

This approach involves less skin removal than the standard technique, so patients enjoy a faster recovery and minimal scarring. The incision is made around the nipple, and it allows Dr. Reinblatt to reshape and resize the areola.

Lollipop lift Best for a moderate lift

To perform the lollipop lift, Dr. Reinblatt will make an incision around the nipple and areola and down the breast crease. It results in less scarring than the standard lift, but can remove more tissue than the donut mastopexy.

Lift + Enhance: Should you have implants placed during your breast lift?

Many of Dr. Reinblatt's patients combine their Westchester breast lift with a breast augmentation to restore lost volume. The benefits of combining your procedures include:

  • Combat sagging and sculpt fuller breasts simultaneously
  • Less scarring when the procedures are done together
  • No significant increase in recovery time

Your breast lift surgery

Dr. Reinblatt will perform your breast lift in Westchester, while you are under general anesthesia. She will begin by creating the incision discussed during your initial consultation, carefully placing it within the natural folds of your breasts to minimize scarring.

Through those openings, she will trim away excess skin, reshape the underlying breast tissue and resize stretched areola

to achieve a natural and proportionate chest. She will then re-drape your skin and close the incisions.

Once your procedure is complete, she will bandage your breasts and fit you with a compression garment or surgical bra to maintain your new shape and minimize your discomfort as you heal.

The recovery: What to expect

Following a breast lift, you should expect:

  • soreness
  • swelling
  • bruising

These initial healing symptoms will be well managed with pain medication.

Be sure to expect that you will need to:

  • Take at least one week off of work
  • Wear your compression garments and bandages for one week
  • Walk around the house for brief periods to promote blood flow

You will need to wear a compression garment in order to alleviate swelling and allow your breasts to begin to heal properly.

You may experience numbness in your nipples or areolae immediately following your procedure. This is usually temporary and normal sensation should return within six weeks. You should avoid sexual activity for one to two weeks following your procedure.

Dr. Reinblatt will advise you regarding when you will be able to shower or wash your hair.

How is a Breast Lift Different from Breast Augmentation?

A breast lift focuses on lifting and reshaping the tissue of your existing breasts in order to provide a more aesthetically pleasing appearance. Breast augmentation is the enhancement of your natural breasts with fat grafting breast augmentation or breast implants. Over time age, gravity, pregnancy, and nursing can take their toll on the appearance of your breasts. Lifting and reshaping the breasts can restore them to fullness and beauty.

Frequently Asked Questions

What Kind of Results Can I Expect Following a Breast Lift?

Following your breast lift, your breasts will be firmer, look more voluminous, and rest at a higher place on your chest. Your nipples will be re-centered and proportionate to the surrounding breast tissue. You may also find that your clothes fit in a more attractive manner. What’s more, you may find that your self-confidence has received the boost it needs to help you feel beautiful in your own skin.

Will I Be Able to Breastfeed After a Breast Lift?

This is a fairly common concern among women seeking a breast lift. The answer is – you will probably be able to breastfeed following a breast lift. The surgical techniques involved in a breast lift usually do not disrupt the natural anatomy of the breast, allowing you to retain the ability to breastfeed following the procedure. Do inform Dr. Reinblatt if you plan to have more children prior to undergoing breast lift surgery.

Will a Breast Lift Change my Breast Size?

Studies have shown that a breast lift can reduce your breast size by one full cup in some instances. If this is a concern for you, you should discuss your options for a breast lift with breast augmentation with Dr. Reinblatt.

Should I Wait to Get a Breast Lift Until I’m Done Having Children?

This is a very personal decision. A breast lift is performed in order to restore the breasts to a higher, more youthful place following pregnancy, breastfeeding, weight loss, or the effects of age and the natural pull of gravity. Getting pregnant and breastfeeding following a breast lift will put new stress on the tissue surrounding the breast, increasing the chance that you will need to have another breast lift in the future.

Do I Have to Get a Breast Lift with Breast Augmentation?

No, you do not. You may simply choose to enhance the size of the breasts if you desire. If you are seeking, however, to restore volume and fullness and a higher placement for breasts, you may choose to have a breast lift with your breast augmentation.

Will I have Scars from a Breast Lift?

As with any surgery, there will be some scarring following a breast lift. Westchester plastic surgeon, Dr. Reinblatt, will make every effort to be sure that your scars are as discreet as possible, allowing you to have the most beautiful results imaginable. She will also provide you with post-operative instructions on how you may best care for your incisions, so they heal in a manner that will allow them to fade from view.
