Breast Lift

Breast lift (mastopexy) is a surgical procedure performed to eliminate sagging breasts caused by aging, weight change, pregnancy, breastfeeding or genetic factors. With this operation, the breast tissue is given a firmer and fuller appearance. Women can have younger, more upright and aesthetic lines by eliminating the loss of shape in their breasts thanks to breast lift.

Candidates

• Sagging Breast Structure: Those who experience significant loosening, sagging or loss of shape in their breasts,
• Decrease in Skin Elasticity: Those who experience loss of skin elasticity due to aging or weight changes,
• Nipple Turning Downwards: The nipple is lower than normal and the breast is not firm,
• Individuals with Suitable General Health Status: Those who do not have any serious health problems, do not have any obstacles to surgery, and have realistic expectations.

A detailed examination and evaluation by your surgeon is important to determine whether you are suitable for breast lift surgery.

Benefits of Breast Lift

• More Lively and Younger Appearance: When sagging and looseness are eliminated, the breasts gain a firm, upright and aesthetic shape.
• Form Gain: The appearance resulting from tissue loss or stretching of the breast is reshaped to be in proportion to your breast structure.
• Increased Self-Confidence: It helps you feel more comfortable and confident in your clothing choices and social life.
• Combined Process if necessary: In some patients, additional procedures such as breast augmentation or reduction may be performed in conjunction with a breast lift.

Application Process

1. Preliminary Inspection and Planning: Breast tissue, degree of sagging, skin elasticity and nipple position are examined. The surgery plan (incision location, technique, etc.) is customized to the individual.
2. Preparation for Surgery: Necessary health checks (such as blood tests, mammography/ultrasound) are performed. For a healthy recovery, it may be recommended to reduce or quit smoking and alcohol consumption before surgery.
3. Surgical intervention: Under general anesthesia, excess skin is removed, breast tissue is shaped, and the nipple is moved upward. After the stitches are placed, your doctor will apply a dressing and bandage.
4. Post-Procedure Care: Use of a special bra or elastic bandage will support the new shape of your breasts during the healing process. Your doctor will share any necessary medications and home care instructions.

The Healing Process

• The First Days: Symptoms such as mild pain, swelling, and bruising are normal. You can have a comfortable rest period by regularly using the painkillers prescribed by your doctor.
• Rest and Checks: A light-paced life is recommended for approximately 1 week. At the first check-up appointment, stitches and dressings are evaluated.
• Return to Daily Activities: Desk work and routine daily activities can usually be resumed within 1 to 2 weeks. It is recommended to wait a few more weeks for activities such as intense exercise or heavy lifting.
• Final Results: As the swelling and edema in the first weeks decrease, the shape of the breast begins to become more apparent. Perfectly fitted, natural results may take several months.

Results

• More Firm and Shaped Breasts: Sagging and looseness are eliminated, and the breast tissue is reshaped.
• Natural and Aesthetic Appearance: Modern surgical techniques provide a natural result by hiding the scars as much as possible.
• Long-Term Effect: Maintaining a balanced weight and a healthy lifestyle supports the permanence of the surgery results.
• Confidence and Comfort: Improving the appearance of your breasts will allow you to feel more freedom in your clothing choices and daily life.
