Breast Lift: Correcting Breast Sagging

A breast lift, also known as mastopexy, is a surgical procedure aimed at correcting breast ptosis (sagging). Sagging is characterized by a loss of skin and muscle tone in the breast, leading to asymmetry and a lack of firmness, which can cause an empty upper pole breast emptiness. A breast lift restores the breasts to their former shape and volume.

This procedure can be performed alone or in combination with breast augmentation. In cases of severe breast ptosis and lack of volume, the surgery may require the insertion of a breast implant.

Causes of Breast Sagging

Several factors contribute to breast ptosis. Pregnancy and breastfeeding are common triggers, as are natural aging and significant weight loss, whether through dieting or after bariatric surgery. Additionally, certain medical conditions, such as Poland syndrome, can cause breast ptosis.

Surgery is the only considered effective treatment. No exercise or diet can lift sagging breasts.

If you are considering surgery to correct breast ptosis, it is important to consult with a board-certified plastic surgeon. During your consultation with Dr. Lyor HANAN, your aesthetic goals and concerns will be evaluated, and a personalized treatment plan will be developed.

Who is a Candidate for a Breast Lift?

A breast lift is suitable for women who have experienced pregnancy, breastfeeding, significant weight loss, or simply natural aging, all of which can lead to skin and muscle laxity in the breasts.

This procedure can be performed at any age. However, it is recommended to wait at least six months after pregnancy and breastfeeding to allow your weight to stabilize and to minimize the risk of recurrent ptosis.

The Breast Lift Procedure with Dr. Lyor HANAN

Dr. Lyor HANAN, an aesthetic surgeon in Dubai, performs all breast lift procedures under general anesthesia. The operation typically lasts about one and half hours.

The first step involves removing excess skin. The length of the incision depends on the severity of the breast sagging. The type of incision (periareolar, inframammary, or vertical) and the surgical technique will be determined based on the degree of breast ptosis and the patient’s expectations.

There may be one scar (as with the periareolar or round-block technique), two scars (around the nipple and a vertical scar), or three scars (an anchor-shaped or inverted T scar, which includes an additional horizontal scar under the breast). The more severe the ptosis, the more scars there will be.

Once the excess skin is removed, Dr. Lyor HANAN will suture the underlying tissues and skin. The incisions are closed with absorbable stitches.

Dr. Lyor HANAN does not place any drains or suction tubes.

Results of a Breast Lift

Following the procedure, outpatient hospitalization is sufficient in most cases, so an overnight stay is typically unnecessary. The incisions are covered with dressings and sterile compresses. A post-operative support bra will be provided to minimize breast movement and promote healing.

The results of a breast lift are permanent. The breasts regain their former shape and volume, becoming firmer and more symmetrical.

Cost of a Breast Lift with Dr. Lyor HANAN

The cost of a breast lift varies depending on the type of procedure performed, the degree of breast ptosis, and the patient’s expectations. Dr. Lyor HANAN will provide a personalized quote during the pre-operative consultation. On average, a breast lift is priced between 26 000 and 28 000 AED.

Is a Breast Lift Covered by insurance?
