Breast Lift After Weight Loss

Although many people may not think of breast surgery as a post-weight loss procedure, many women need breast lift after weight loss surgery to restore breast volume and shape. I offer many breast surgery procedures at my practice that are particularly helpful for women who want to address two common concerns after weight loss:

• Decreased breast volume
• Breast sagging

How can breast augmentation with lift help after weight loss?

Breast augmentation with lift is beneficial because it lifts the breasts and creates a more youthful shape that complements your slimmer silhouette. This combined surgical approach involves restoring fullness to deflated breasts while also lifting sagging or asymmetrical breasts. Combining these procedures produces the youthful, perky results that breast augmentation patients desire after experiencing significant weight loss or after major events such as childbirth, breastfeeding, aging, etc.

How is breast lift after weight loss performed?

During surgery, I reposition the breast tissue and remove excess skin to create the desired breast position and contours. It’s usually necessary to reposition the nipples and areolas for optimal, natural-looking results. The procedure typically takes 2 to 4 hours, and you can return home to heal and recover the same day as your surgery.

What are the benefits of breast lift after weight loss?

Losing an extreme amount of weight is a major achievement! You deserve to feel comfortable and confident in your new skin, but deflated or sagging breasts can stand in the way of completing your weight loss journey. The advantages of breast lift after weight loss include:

• Better breast shape and symmetry to complement your “new” body frame
• Perkier breast position
• Improved comfort during physical activity
• Ability to wear a wider variety of swimsuit, workout, and clothing styles (with more confidence!)
• Enhanced self-esteem and body image

In addition to breast lift after weight loss, other body contouring procedures, such as a tummy tuck, arm lift, or thigh lift, can help you address loose skin and achieve the confidence you deserve.
