Breast Lift

Description

A breast lift, or mastopexy, is a surgical procedure designed to raise and reshape sagging breasts. This operation primarily involves the removal of excess skin and the tightening of the surrounding tissue to support and reposition the new breast contour. Typically performed under general anesthesia, the surgeon begins by making incisions on the breasts, which can vary in pattern depending on the technique used and the amount of lift required. Common incision patterns include a circular pattern around the areola, a keyhole pattern with an incision around the areola and vertically down to the breast crease, or an anchor pattern, which includes additional horizontal incisions along the breast crease. Once the incisions are made, the underlying breast tissue is lifted and reshaped to improve breast firmness and contour. The next steps involve repositioning the nipple and areola to a higher, more youthful location. If necessary, the size of the areola can be reduced to make it proportionate to the newly shaped breast. After these adjustments, the skin is tightened and the incisions are closed with sutures, skin adhesives, or surgical tape. In some cases, temporary drainage tubes may be placed under the skin to remove excess fluids. Post-surgery, patients are usually advised to wear a special support bra to minimize swelling and support the breasts as they heal. Recovery times can vary, but most patients can return to normal activities within a few weeks, with complete healing and final results typically visible within a few months. The goal of a breast lift is to achieve a natural and aesthetically pleasing breast shape that meets the patient's expectations and enhances their self-confidence.

Breast Reduction Vertical Scar Reduction: This technique minimizes scarring by focusing the incision around the areola and vertically down the breast. It provides effective reshaping and lifting for moderate reduction needs. Anchor Scar Reduction: Also known as the inverted T incision, this method is suitable for significant breast reduction. It involves three incisions to effectively remove excess tissue and reshape the breast contour. Breast Augmentation Implant Augmentation: Using high-quality implants, this procedure enhances breast volume and shape. The implants can be inserted through various incisions such as inframammary, periareolar, or transaxillary. Fat Transfer Augmentation: This method uses liposuction to harvest fat from other parts of the body and injects it into the breasts. It offers a more natural enhancement with the dual benefit of body contouring. Breast Lift Mastopexy: The procedure lifts and reshapes sagging breasts by removing excess skin and tightening the surrounding tissue. It aims to achieve a more youthful and elevated breast profile. Combined Lift and Augmentation: This dual approach simultaneously lifts and adds volume to the breasts. It’s ideal for women looking to restore fullness and correct significant sagging. Nipple and Areola Correction Inverted Nipple Correction: This surgery addresses the inversion of nipples, enhancing their appearance and function. It can involve minimal incisions and is often performed under local anesthesia. Areola Reduction: This procedure reduces the size of the areola to match the overall breast proportion. It's often combined with other breast surgeries for optimal results. Additional Procedures Axillary Breast Removal: This technique removes excess breast tissue in the armpit area, often referred to as accessory breasts. It improves both comfort and aesthetic appearance. Gynecomastia Surgery: Male breast reduction surgery removes excess glandular tissue and fat to achieve a masculine chest contour. Depending on the case, it may involve liposuction and/or gland excision. Mamms Clinic uses advanced AI technology like Crisalix for virtual simulations and employs diagnostic tools (X-ray and ultrasound) to ensure precise and safe surgical planning. We aim for optimal aesthetic outcomes while maintaining the health and functionality of breast tissue.

Evita Clinic Korea: Body Contouring, Breast & Gender-Affirming Surgery in Seoul (Apgujeong)
Enquiries go directly to the clinic

Free consultation from the clinic

Evita Clinic in Apgujeong, Seoul offers a focused range of body contouring, breast, and gender-affirming surgeries with coordinated peri-operative and post-operative care for international patients. Gynecomastia Gynecomastia Surgery treats enlarged male breast tissue by removing gland and/or fat to create a flatter, more masculine chest. The plan is tailored to the amount of tissue and skin laxity to improve chest contour and nipple position. Liposuction (Body & Face) Liposuction removes localized fat deposits through small incisions using a suction cannula to refine body contours. It is used for shaping rather than weight loss, and results depend on skin quality and post-op compression. Abdomen Liposuction targets fat across the upper and lower abdomen to improve waistline definition. It is often chosen when skin elasticity is good and the main concern is stubborn fat. Upper Arms Liposuction reduces fat along the upper arm to create a slimmer arm profile. It can be combined with an arm lift when loose skin is the primary issue. Thigh & Hip Liposuction reshapes the outer hips and/or thighs to improve lower-body proportion. It is used to smooth bulges and enhance contour in clothing. Face & Neck Liposuction reduces submental (under-chin) or neck fat to sharpen the jawline and neck angle. It is selected when fullness is due to fat rather than significant skin laxity. Abdomen Tummy Tuck removes excess abdominal skin and tightens the abdominal wall to create a flatter, firmer midsection. It is often chosen after weight changes or pregnancy when loose skin does not respond to exercise. Arms Arm Lift removes excess skin and tissue from the upper arms to address sagging and improve arm shape. Incision placement and scar length depend on how much skin needs to be removed. Thighs & Hips Thigh Lift removes excess skin from the thighs to improve firmness and reduce rubbing or sagging. The surgical approach is selected based on whether the concern is mainly inner thigh, outer thigh, or both. Breast Surgery Breast Augmentation increases breast volume using implants to enhance size and shape. Implant type and placement are selected based on anatomy, goals, and desired profile. Breast Lift elevates and reshapes the breasts by addressing droop and repositioning the nipple-areola complex. It can be combined with augmentation or reduction depending on volume goals. Breast Reduction reduces breast size by removing excess tissue and reshaping the breast for improved proportion and comfort. It can help relieve physical symptoms associated with heavy breasts, such as shoulder and back strain. Gender-Affirming Chest Surgery (Top Surgery) FTM Top Surgery creates a flatter chest contour by removing breast tissue and resizing/repositioning the nipple-areola complex when needed. Technique choice depends on chest size, skin elasticity, and scar preference. MTF Top Surgery increases breast volume to create a more traditionally feminine chest shape, most commonly using implants. Planning focuses on implant selection, pocket placement, and symmetry. Other Treatments Varicose Vein Treatment addresses enlarged, visible veins to improve appearance and reduce symptoms such as heaviness or aching. Treatment method is selected based on vein size, location, and ultrasound evaluation. Hyperhidrosis Treatment targets excessive sweating to improve daily comfort and reduce clothing or social inconvenience. Options are chosen based on the affected area (such as underarms) and severity. Fat Grafting transfers purified fat from one area of the body to add volume or smooth contours in another area. It is commonly used for subtle shaping and requires adequate donor fat. Face Contouring focuses on reshaping facial proportions to create a more balanced outline and profile. Treatment planning is based on facial structure and desired changes to overall harmony.
