Dermal suspension sling for breast lift...What is it? Is it always used? Why or why not?

A dermal sling is your own tissue from the base of excess skin that is used to help support the lower beast. It can only be used if excess skin is present. Otherwise, mesh support is used. Most surgeons prefer using mesh for additional support because it does not involve additional scarring to excise the excess skin. It is mainly used in women who have lost a great deal of weight and have a great deal of excess skin, especially on the sides of the breasts for use and do need the anchor incisions.

A dermal suspension sling is a surgical technique used in breast lifts to provide additional support and longevity to the lifted tissues. It involves anchoring the breast tissue to deeper structures using sutures. It’s not always used and depends on factors such as the patient’s anatomy, desired results, and the surgeon’s preference. The decision to use a dermal suspension sling is made on a case-by-case basis to achieve optimal outcomes.
