Can I Have a Second Breast Lift After 28 Years?

Thank you for your question!  You definitely can have another breast lift.  You may need more than one throughout your lift.  Find a board certified plastic surgeon who preforms these routinely.  Best of luck!Dr Dhaval Patel

Yes, this repeated procedure is definitely possibly considering the work of nature on the body. Over time, gravity will continue to have an effect and the
breast skin will tend to stretch. The degree of #stretching and #sagging varies
between women: generally, women with smaller breasts experience less recurring
sagging. If sagging does occur, further excision of the skin on an outpatient
basis can be used to correct the problem. Heavy and large breasts may lead to
recurrent sagging and may require the removal of a small amount of breast
tissue to achieve an optimal shape and size. One key to a satisfying result is
realistic expectations.

The risk of a second surgery is primarily due to to the blood supply to the nipple and areola. IF your surgical records are available, it would greatly diminish this risk because the surgeon could better plan the approach.

Yes, it is possible to have repeat breast lifting done;  this is not an unusual request specially after 28 years. Make sure you're working with are well experienced board-certified plastic surgeon. It is doubtful that you'll be able to obtain previous operative  reports,  but if you do, this may be helpful.

Best wishes.

There are a number of different techniques available for performing a breast lift, although some of the newer ones were not performed when you underwent your initial surgery. Since so much time has elapsed since that surgery, it is most likely that there is sufficient blood supply to the different parts of the breast, especially the nipple and areola, for you to safely undergo another breast lift.
