Breast Lift to Reposition Tissue
Hilton Head Island | Bluffton
Noticing Changes in Breast Shape & Firmness?
Over time, gravity, aging, pregnancy, and weight fluctuations can cause breasts to lose firmness and sag. This can lead to a less lifted appearance, downward-pointing nipples, or stretched skin. A breast lift (mastopexy) restores a firmer, more youthful breast shape by removing excess skin, repositioning the nipple, and reshaping breast tissue.
At Hilton Head Plastic Surgery & Medspa, our goal is to help you achieve a natural, well-proportioned breast shape that aligns with your body and personal aesthetic goals.
Why Consider a Breast Lift?
- Elevates sagging breasts affected by aging, gravity, or weight changes
- Restores firmness after pregnancy and breastfeeding
- Repositions the nipples if they point downward or to the side
- Improves overall breast shape for a more youthful appearance
- Can be combined with breast augmentation for added volume
How Does the Procedure Work?
- Surgery typically lasts 1.5 to 3 hours
- The most common technique involves an anchor-shaped incision, which allows for precise reshaping and nipple repositioning
- For minimal sagging, a less invasive "doughnut" technique may be an option, requiring only a circular incision around the areola
- If implants are added, they will be placed under the breast tissue or chest muscle for additional volume
What to Expect During Recovery
- Bandages and a supportive surgical bra will be provided to aid healing
- Swelling and mild discomfort are normal but can be managed with medication
- Patients can typically resume daily activities within a few days, with full recovery taking a few weeks
- Final results become more visible as swelling subsides, revealing a firmer, lifted shape
Following post-operative care instructions ensures a smooth recovery and long-lasting results.
