Dr. Tavakoli Shares His Philosophy on Breast Lift Operations

SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA - July 16th, 2013 /MarketersMedia/ -- Women are often forced to deal with sagging breasts following weight loss, breastfeeding or the natural effects of gravity and aging. Breast droopiness is a condition that affects women of all ages. In a past issue of the ACSM Magazine, Dr. Tavakoli shared that although most people tend to associate breast ptosis with older women, younger women also commonly suffer different degrees of sagginess after significant weight loss or breastfeeding. For these women, wearing supportive bras can help disguise but not fix the problem.

A breast lift is meant to improve the positioning or shape of the breasts while maintaining their size. Although it does not change the amount of breast tissue a woman has, it can change her breast shape dramatically. The overall projection would seemingly increase her breast size as well.

Unfortunately, the procedure often leaves behind a scar, which is why many women are hesitant to undergo the surgery. For such patients, Dr. Tavakoli recommends the Benelli technique in which the scar is only around the nipple scar. An implant is used to achieve the lift, but the technique is only suitable if the breast skin has not stretched too much.

Although modern plastic surgery focuses on creating minimal scarring for achieving the best aesthetic outcome, some degree of scarring is inevitable. As such, prospective patients should understand this delicate balance before they embark on the procedure.

If the breasts are extremely droopy, Dr. Tavakoli goes for the modern “internal bra” technique in which the breast tissue is anchored to the chest wall. This creates an auto-augmentation look without requiring the use of breast implants.

A breast lift is sometimes combined with breast augmentation when a patient wants bigger breasts, or breast reduction for smaller breasts. Women’s breasts differ in shape, which is why Dr. Tavakoli advices women to work with a skilled plastic surgeon who can determine which procedure or combination of procedures best suit them.

A breast lift can be a very rewarding procedure for those looking to correct their drooping breasts. Patients are therefore advised to find out as much as they can about out the procedure on their own and discuss the operation and its projected outcome thoroughly with their surgeons prior to the procedure. This includes the side effects and risks they face during the procedure.
