The breast lift<\/strong> (medically known as mastopexy<\/em>) is a surgical procedure designed to tighten, lift and improve the shape of the female breast. It is usually performed when the breasts have lost firmness, for example, after pregnancy, breastfeeding, weight loss or age-related sagging of the skin.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

    Anesthesia:<\/strong>
    The procedure is usually performed under general anesthesia.<\/p>

    Incision techniques (depending on the case):<\/strong><\/p>

    • Periareolar:<\/strong> around the nipple<\/p><\/li>

    • Lejour technique:<\/strong> modern technique with minimal scarring, incision around the nipple and vertical downwards<\/p><\/li>

    • T-shaped incision:<\/strong> additional horizontal incision in the submammary fold (rarely necessary)<\/p><\/li><\/ul>

      Tissue remodeling:<\/strong>
      The mammary gland and skin are tightened, and the nipple-areola complex is elevated.<\/p>

      Suture closure:<\/strong>
      Fine suture technique to minimize scarring, often with resorbable stitches.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
