Breast Lift in Draper, UT

A breast lift (mastopexy) is a surgical procedure that reshapes the breasts by reducing excess skin and tightening the tissues to create a perkier, more youthful appearance. This cosmetic breast surgery is typically best for women who have lost breast shape and volume and who are experiencing breast sag due to pregnancy, weight loss, or aging. Dr. Dino Maglic, an experienced plastic surgeon in Draper, UT, is pleased to perform breast lifts at Maglic Plastic Surgery. By integrating the latest methods, Dr. Maglic can choose the proper technique according to the degree of sag present, keeping in mind the desired result.

It's not unusual for a patient to come in thinking that she needs breast augmentation when a breast lift is actually more appropriate for her needs and goals. If your breasts are sagging or losing their shape, consider the benefits of breast lift surgery, such as:

• Lifts the breasts into a higher, perkier position
• Tightens skin to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and skin ripples
• Gives the breasts a firmer look and feel
• Repositions the nipples for a more natural appearance
• Can correct asymmetrical breasts
• Can be combined with augmentation for a more complete transformation

You may visit Maglic Plastic Surgery hoping to get fuller breasts with breast implants; however, after a physical exam, you may discover that breast lift surgery is better. This is dependent on the severity of the sag that is present. In most cases, breasts that have lost elasticity need skin removal and tightening surgery to correct skin looseness and raise the breasts to a perkier position. If your nipples point downward and your breasts sag significantly below the crease line, a cosmetic lift can dramatically help their appearance. If you are considering a breast lift, you should be physically healthy and at a good weight.

We offer several different approaches to breast lift surgery at Maglic Plastic Surgery. The ideal approach for you will depend on the level of sagging you have and your aesthetic goals. The most common types of breast lifts are:

• Periareolar ("Donut" lift): A periareolar breast lift is done with an incision around the edge of the areola. This approach is minimally invasive compared to other types of breast lifts and may be ideal for women with mild to moderate sagging.
• Vertical ("Lollipop" lift): Two incisions are made during a vertical lift: one in a circle around the areola and another that runs down from the areola to the bottom of the breast — hence the name "lollipop lift." The vertical lift may be best for women with moderate sagging.
• Inverted T ("Anchor" lift): The anchor lift involves three incisions: one around the areola, one that stretches from the bottom of the areola to the crease under the breast, and a third along the inframammary crease. This technique is often recommended for patients with significant sagging or those who want to combine their lift with a breast reduction.
