Breast Lift Sacramento & Granite Bay

Several factors, including pregnancy and breastfeeding, can contribute to a displeasing breast aesthetic. Women who are concerned about having sagging or deflated breasts may want to consider undergoing breast lift surgery. This procedure revitalizes the look and feel of the breasts by removing excess skin and reshaping the remaining tissues to a more youthful position. Dr. Scott Green customizes each breast lift procedure to reflect the patient’s individual desires and anatomical needs, resulting in a balanced, symmetrical bustline.

What Breast Lift Surgery Can Improve

Pendulous Breasts

Pendulous Breasts

Aging, pregnancy, and weight loss can alter the position of the breasts, causing them to droop far below the inframammary crease. Breast lift surgery can lift and reposition pendulous breasts to produce to a more youthful aesthetic.

Poorly Positioned Areolas

Poorly Positioned Areolas

Enlarged or downward-pointing nipples can create an asymmetrical breast appearance. Fortunately, women can correct poorly positioned or disproportionate areolas with a breast lift procedure that is tailored to their unique needs.

Misshapen Breasts

Misshapen Breasts

Over time, many women experience breast volume fluctuations, which contribute to breasts that are misshapen and lack firmness. Breast lift surgery improves the projection and shape of the breasts by tightening and repositioning the tissues and eliminating stretched skin.

Breast Lift Technique Options

Every breast lift patient has distinct aesthetic desires and expectations that must be addressed with exceptional care. During your private consultation, Dr. Green will perform a comprehensive analysis of your breasts to determine the ideal surgical approach to achieve your cosmetic objectives.

Anchor Incision

  • An incision is created around the areolas that continues down the lower pole of the breasts and follows along the inframammary fold
  • Ideal for correcting severe breast sagging (ptosis)
  • The nipple-areolar complex can be adjusted and reduced using this technique

Lollipop Incision

  • An incision is created around the areolas and down the lower pole of the breasts
  • Ideal for correcting moderate breast ptosis
  • Can be used to alter the size and position of the nipple-areolar complex

Donut Incision

  • An incision is placed around the perimeter of the areolas
  • Ideal for correcting mild breast ptosis
  • The areolas can be reduced, but not repositioned
Women with compound cosmetic concerns can benefit from pairing their breast lift with other enhancement techniques. Breast lift surgery can be combined with the following procedures to achieve optimal results:

Breast Lift Recovery

Some discomfort, swelling, and bruising are expected following breast lift surgery. Wearing the recommended support bra during recovery can help minimize these side effects. Depending on the physical requirements of the job, most patients can return to work after about one week of recovery. Patients must refrain from engaging in strenuous activities for several weeks, or until Dr. Green gives them clearance. Any changes in sensation near the incision sites are usually temporary.

Mastopexy Scarring

While it is possible to develop visible scarring after a breast lift procedure, scars are likely to fade over time with proper care.

Pain

Patients may take oral pain medication, as recommended by Dr. Green, to alleviate any postoperative discomfort.

Breast lift Cost

The cost of a breast lift procedure depends on many factors including (but not limited to) technique, geographical location, and anesthesia fees. Dr. Green’s financial coordinator will calculate the costs for your personalized procedure during your initial consultation.

Patient Review/Testimonial

“Despite my own research and various consultations, it wasn’t until I met with Dr. Scott Green, that I felt hopeful and secure about the idea of cosmetic plastic surgery in Sacramento. He was very clear and informative without being overwhelming. Additionally, Dr. Green was very sensitive, as was I, when discussing the option of a breast lift and/or breast augmentation. At his Sacramento practice, we decided together that the most effective plan was to lift the breasts while maintaining a natural look and feel with minimal scarring. For me this meant a crescent incision through the nipple with a silicone breast implant placed under the muscle.”
