Benelli Lift can be performed twice with caution

A Benelli mastopexy, otherwise known as periareolar or donut mastopexy is performed to elevate the nipple-areolar complex back to a more aesthetically pleasing level. Caution should be undertaken not to elevate the nipple to far. Ideal candidates are patients who require nipple elevation no more than 2 centimeters. In the poorly chosen patient, the end result can be wide and undesirable scars, streched out nipples and areolas, and potentially, a flattened out breast. One of the most... more

Benelli Lift the second time

The answer is yes, but the question is, should it be done? To give you a more focused answer I would need to know: height, weight, age, bra size, date of prior surgery, child bearing and nursing history. Good photos showing scars would also help.

Repeating a breast lift

You didn't send in a photo which would have helped but basically it is possible to re-do a periareolar lift.  Depending on your anatomy though, if you have become more lax over time you might need a full lift now to get the best result.

A Benelli (Donut/Periareolar) Breast Lift CAN be Repeated

A Benelli (or a Donut / Periareolar) breast lift CAN be done again IF the suture holding the lift snapped and if the distance the nipple complex needs to be elevated is not too much. These 2 "IF's" are important as this lift is rather limited in its abilities. If it is used instead of and to avoid a vertical scar Lift the results are flattened breasts, stretched out, sunburst areola and a very unattractive look.

Benelli breast lift can be repeated.

Hi. 1) I wonder why you need it done again. That's unusual. But a Benelli breast lift can certainly be done again. 2) If you have too much sagging, the Benelli does have limitations, and trying to get more lift with it will create a deformity. You may need a lollipop breast lift. It produces great shape and women accept the scar very well.

Benelli or Circumareolar Breast Lift

The Benelli breast lift, also know as a donut, periareolar or concentric is performed by removing the breast skin around the areola. Then using a permanent stitch this outer longer diameter is sutured to the areolar, shorter diameter. It's a great lift when skin volume needs to be removed with or without elevation of the nipple. The down sides to this surgery are first it will takes months to "settle." Because there is such a difference in the two diameters there tends to be a... more

Benelli Lift

If your breast sags due to time (many years), pregnancy, or significant weight changes, then a lift can be performed after each change. Some patients, however, have naturally poor quality skin and the skin will sag regardless of the above. If this is the case with your breast, then recurrence is more likely than the average patient. see video

Benelli Breast Lift can be done twice

Yes, you could technically get this lift performed twice if necessary. I would recommend waiting at least a year between the surgeries to allow your tissues to recover. Good luck.

Revision Benelli Lift

Yes, Benelli or circumareolar lfts (mastopexy) can be repeated and is most oftenly performed to correct a broken circumareaolar stitch and treat an enlarged areola. Use of a permanent suture may reduce this tendency
