This cosmetic procedure can have significant results both on the on body image; weighing the benefits and risks is always helpful when making a decision to have a surgery. Mastoplexy can be done with or without an augmentation, and it often performed in conjunction with a breast reduction. It is intended to address sagging, drooping, and asymmetrical issues; it is does not increase or reduce size. Those who have gained weight subsequently losing it often experience side effects such as loose skin and sagging that can be fixed with this cosmetic procedure. A lift is a rather safe procedure, and major complications are not common. During the operation areola size can also be addressed, and the results are not likely to hinder future nursing abilities. The results are often dramatic, and patients are usually pleased with the outcome. Often friends and acquaintances notice a certain self-confidence about the recipient rather than pin-pointing that she has had “work done.”

No procedure, however, is without risk, and the general rules of surgery apply even in this elective procedure. Though not common or frequent, infection, bleeding, or poor anesthetic reactions can occur with this and any surgery. In relation to the cosmetic aspect of the process, it is possible but not likely to lose nipple sensation or the ability to nurse, though mastoplexy is not suggested for those who know or think they may become pregnant as the associated weight gain, weight loss and nursing is likely to negate the aesthetic outcome of a breast lift.
Doctor’s orders should be considered an extension of the surgery itself and followed precisely for the best outcome.
Not adhering to post -operative instructions can cause undesirable final results such as stretching of scar tissue; patients who experience this often opt for revision surgery not only again exposing the patient to general surgical risks, but also adding scars and scar tissue. Any and all risks are significantly reduced if the patient self-advocates well and adheres to pre-and post-operative instructions.

There are several incision options for the procedure, and pre-operative counseling will determine the patients final expectations and, thus, the type of lift that is best suited for the patient’s needs. The physical and emotional benefits that a mastoplexy has to offer far outweigh the minor risks affiliated with the operation. The results of a breast lift are not permanent, but if a client has realistic expectations and follows the surgeon’s instructions for both preparation and recovery, the client will enjoy the cosmetic lift and retain the results for several years.
