Breast corrections
Would you like tailored advice?
Have you noticed that gravity is having more of an effect on your breasts, or have you always suffered from sagging breasts? Are your breasts uneven, or has their volume decreased? A breast lift or mastopexy can restore firmness to your breasts. Sagging breasts are a psychological burden for many women. You may have noticed changes in your beautiful breasts after a period of breastfeeding. The upper part of the breast is less full and the nipples hang lower than before. You can remedy this problem with a breast lift.
What is a breast lift?
- Your breasts have sagged or become less firm
- The nipples are lower than the breast fold.
- There is asymmetry or volume loss
- You feel insecure about the shape of your breasts
If the nipples are still above the breast fold and you want more volume, breast augmentation without a lift may sometimes suffice. Your surgeon will discuss this with you during the consultation.
Breast lift – the treatment
A breast lift can be combined with breast augmentation. Sometimes, augmentation alone is sufficient to lift the breasts. This is the case when the nipples are above the crease of the breast. If the nipples are below the crease, a breast lift is usually the appropriate treatment method. Of course, your own preferences are also important. If you are satisfied with the volume, an augmentation will often not be necessary. A breast lift operation can be performed on an outpatient basis, but you may also need to stay in the hospital overnight. The operation takes an average of three hours and is performed under general anaesthesia. Because there are different surgical methods for a breast lift, the surgeon will discuss with you in advance which treatment will be used. The most commonly used technique involves removing the skin centrally at the bottom of the breast. The nipple is repositioned and the areola is usually reduced in size as well.
After the breast lift
We cannot guarantee that the operation will result in the desired cup size, but we will do our utmost to achieve the size discussed beforehand. After the breast lift, your breasts will be firmer, but there will be permanent scars. These scars usually become narrower and whiter over time. The shape and sensitivity of the breasts may be different after the operation. After the lift, the breasts will be covered with plasters and the drains (if present) will sometimes remain in place for a few days. You may experience some pain in the first 24 hours after the operation, after which your breasts may feel a little swollen and tender. However, this feeling will gradually subside. Please note that it can take around four to eight months for the breasts to reach their desired shape.
In summary:Samenvattend:
- Anaesthesia: general anaesthesia
- Duration: 3 hours on average
- Technique: excess skin is removed, the nipple is repositioned higher and the areola is reduced in size if necessary.
- Admission: often day treatment, sometimes one night stay.
Breast lift without prosthesis or breast lift with implants?
In many cases, a breast lift without implants is sufficient and the desired result is achieved by performing the lift alone. If this is not the case, implants can always be added. This is referred to as a breast lift with implants.
