Had a breast lift 3 weeks ago and there is some access skin still sagging on my left breast he said that he will look at it 3months and discuss tweaking in office, what exactly does in office tweaking consist of? Will he be able to cut and stitch me up again in office? also my nipple is horribly wrong it look heart shaped!
While every attempt is made to give an equal and symmetrical result after a breast lift occasionally there are some areas which need small revisions after the healing is done and the tissues soften and mature. This can usually be done in the office with a small amount of local anesthesia, where the excess skin is removed and tightened to improve the end result. Ask your surgeon if this is what they mean by "tweaking"
I am 3 weeks post lift and feel like I had a reduction. I have gone from a solid C-D to a small B and no cleavage. My PS says I am swollen in the sides and will fill out through the middle. Is this normal? My PS is already saying we can add implants so this leads me to believe I have an issue. Should she provide the impants at no or reduced cost?
A breast lift is an operation designed to reposition the nipples and brest tissue on the chest in patients with varying degrees of breast sagging. ( Was a small breast reduction done with removal of some breast volume?, as a breast reduction may involve similar incisions but involves removal of stretched out skin and breast tissue as well.).
Although a breast lift may provide additional upper breast fullness early on, this will probably lesson as things stretch out. If additional breast volume was desired, breast augmentation may be appropriate even at a second setting. Discuss your concerns with your plastic surgeon as good communication with your surgeon is of most importance.
Every surgeon says something different. I'd like to know if the areola stretch or become larger or not after a benelli lift/areola reduction. Some say yes others say no, so which one is it? Also, is the stitch from that surgery visible under clothes when not wearing a bra?? Thanks a lot.
You WILL get differing views about the Benelli lift, but certain issues are clear. If the breasts are very low, a Benelli won't work and you need a full or T anchor mastopexy, to decrease the amount of skin while lifting the breast tissue, making a new skin brassiere and repositioning the nipple/areolar. The Benelli lift does flatten the front of the breast. To prevent areolar widening a permanent suture must be placed around the areolar and it depends on the patients skin quality and thickness whether this is visible or can be felt under the skin. This suture can become exposed, infected and need removal, leading to lose of the support it was supposed to provide. An anchor lift will reliably give an excellent lift and shape to the breast, without the need for permanent sutures and deforming the front of the breast.
