Breast Lift Durham
Breast Lift in Durham, Chapel Hill and Raleigh
Have you had children or lost weight and now find that your breasts are sagging? A breast lift, or mastopexy, is a surgical procedure designed to raise and reshape sagging breasts that have lost volume and/or elasticity after weight loss, pregnancy or aging. The procedure can raise the nipples to a more aesthetically pleasing level and in some cases can also reshape the breasts.
Who is a candidate for the Breast Lift or Mastopexy with Dr. Coan?
Many women seek mastopexy because pregnancy and nursing have left them with stretched skin and less volume in their breasts. The procedure can also reduce the size of the areola (the darker skin around the nipple). For more information or to schedule a consult with Dr. Brian Coan, please call (919)484-4884 and our CARE staff will be happy to assist you.
How is the Breast Lift or Mastopexy Performed?
With the mastopexy procedure, the techniques vary from patient to patient. Generally, the excess skin is removed from the lower part of the breast, and the nipple and colored areola are moved along with the entire breast mound to a higher position. Incisions are usually made around the areola, then carried vertically downward and horizontally across the crease under the breast. The goal is to elevate the position of the nipples, tighten and lift the breast tissue, and create a more youthful appearing breast shape. Some patients, especially those with relatively small breasts and minimal sagging, may be candidates for modified procedures requiring less extensive incisions.
