34 years old Breatlift. Before 1 year and 6 years after surgery.

Droopy breasts may have a number of causes. They can be genetic, look deflated following breast feeding or as a result of weight loss too.

Reshaping of the breast tissue and enclosing it in a smaller skin envelope can give a more pert and youthful appearance without the need for breast implants. Using the vertical scar technique avoids a long horizontal scar under the breast. Reshaping the breast tissue and stitching it together in a more conical shape ensures a long lasting result. The skin is draped over and stitched without tension ensuring thin scars that become almost imperceptible in time.

Post pregnancy weight loss and breast feeding 2 children resulted in droopy sad looking breasts. She was happy with the overall volume of her breasts but unhappy once she removed her bra.  This lady requested implants to restore her breast shape as she thought this was the only way to improve their appearance. A breast lift using short scar Vertical technique was suggested instead.

One year result:

Reshaping of ample her breast tissue, elevating the nipples and reducing the skin envelope resulted in natural, perter and more youthful breasts. Adequate breast volume avoids the need for implants.

Six year result:

Despite gravity, the passage of time, and a little weight gain, the breasts have maintained their lovely natural youthful shape. As you can see with the weight gain, the breasts are also a little bigger.

Please note, the post op picture shows Micropore tape covering the incision lines, to encourage good scar quality. Patients are encouraged to apply Micropore tape to their scars for 6 months post surgery as this has been found to produce the thinnest, faintest scars possible.
