Anesthesia
The procedure begins with the administration of general anesthesia to ensure you remain completely comfortable and free from pain throughout the surgery.
Incision Placement
Your surgeon will make strategically placed incisions, which may include patterns such as around the areola, vertically from the areola to the breast crease, or along the natural breast fold. The incision pattern depends on the degree of lift required and your unique anatomy.
Tissue Reshaping and Repositioning
Once the incisions are made, excess skin is removed, and breast tissue is lifted and reshaped to create a firmer and more youthful breast profile. The nipple and areola are repositioned to a higher, more natural position on the breast.
Areola Adjustment
If necessary, enlarged areolas are reduced to match the newly contoured breast shape, maintaining proportionate aesthetics.
Closing the Incisions
After reshaping and adjusting the breast tissue, the incisions are carefully closed using sutures or surgical adhesives. Special care is taken to minimize scarring and support proper healing.
Application of Support Garments
A surgical support bra is worn to minimize swelling, provide support to the newly contoured breasts, and aid in the healing process.
