Breast Lift Doylestown & Bucks County, PA

As we age, it’s perfectly natural to see various parts of our body begin to bend to gravity’s will. Drooping and sagging are common enough, but it can be especially disheartening to notice these effects in your bust area, in particular. If you feel as though your breasts aren’t quite as perky as they could be, we’re here to help. Dr. Rosen offers breast lifts in Doylestown, Bucks County, and the nearby areas.

Before & After

Your Breast Lift

A breast lift, also known as mastopexy, is a surgical procedure designed to reshape and elevate sagging breasts—restoring a firmer, more youthful contour. Over time, factors like aging, genetics, and weight fluctuations can cause the breasts to lose their natural position. A breast lift addresses these changes by repositioning the breast tissue and tightening the surrounding skin, helping you feel more confident and refreshed in your appearance.

Is a Breast Lift Right for Me?

During your consultation, Dr. Rosen can determine if you are a good candidate for breast lift surgery. Established methods are used to measure the degree of breast droop. Here is a basic guideline:

Mild breast droop is characterized by a nipple that is level with the breast crease.
Moderate breast droop would be characterized by a nipple that is below the breast crease.
Severe breast droop is identified by a nipple that is the lowest point of the breast and positioned down.

What are the Benefits of a Breast Lift?

Restores a more youthful, elevated breast position
Improves breast shape and firmness without increasing size
Creates a more balanced, contoured silhouette

Enhances comfort and fit in bras and clothing
Boosts self-confidence and body image
Addresses changes from aging, weight fluctuations, or pregnancy

How Breast Lift Surgery Works

This procedure will require one to three hours of operating time. The technique used will vary depending on your degree of breast droop. With mild breast sagging, one incision can be placed around the pigmented area of the areola, where a circular section of skin is removed and the breast is reshaped.

In cases of moderate or severe sagging, three incisions are typically used: one travels around part of the areola, another travels down toward the breast crease, and a third is placed horizontally in the crease. Skin and glandular tissue is removed and the nipple is repositioned to give the breasts a more appealing shape and position.

Your Breast Lift Recovery

Expect about one to two weeks of recovery time after your breast lift with Dr. Rosen. You will need to wear a special bra for about four weeks, and your activity will be limited for about six.

During the first week, the incisions and dissolvable sutures will be covered with gauze and tape. You may experience some swelling, bruising, discomfort and changes in nipple sensation.

The breast lift scars will initially be raised, but during the following year they will fade and flatten out significantly. We’ll set up follow-up appointments to ensure that you’re healing properly.

Breast Lift FAQs:

What is the ideal age for a breast lift?

There is no specific age requirement for a breast lift, but the procedure is best suited for individuals who have experienced sagging due to aging, weight fluctuations, or pregnancy and are in good overall health.

What type of anesthesia is used for a breast lift?

Breast lift surgery is typically performed under general anesthesia, ensuring you are comfortable and pain-free during the procedure.

How soon can I return to normal activities after a breast lift?

Most patients can resume light activities within a week, but strenuous exercise and heavy lifting should be avoided for at least four to six weeks to allow proper healing.

Can a breast lift change the size of my breasts?

While a breast lift primarily addresses sagging, it does not significantly change the size of the breasts. However, it can be combined with breast augmentation or reduction if size adjustments are desired.

Will a breast lift surgery leave scars?

Yes, breast lift surgery involves incisions, and scarring is inevitable. However, skilled surgeons aim to minimize scarring by placing incisions strategically. Scars tend to fade over time and can be concealed with clothing.

How long do the results of a breast lift last?

The results of a breast lift are long-lasting, but factors such as aging, gravity, and lifestyle can affect the breasts over time. Maintaining a stable weight and practicing good breast care can help prolong the results.

Can I breastfeed after a breast lift?

Breast lift surgery may impact breastfeeding, as it involves repositioning the nipple-areola complex. While some women can breastfeed after a breast lift, it's important to discuss this concern with the surgeon during the consultation.

Can I combine a breast lift with other procedures?

Yes, a breast lift can be combined with other procedures like breast augmentation or reduction to achieve a more comprehensive enhancement. The combination of procedures is often referred to as a mommy makeover.

Is breast lift surgery covered by insurance?

In most cases, breast lift surgery is considered a cosmetic procedure and is not covered by insurance. However, if the surgery addresses medical issues such as chronic breast pain, insurance coverage may be possible.
