As you age, your breasts and nipples may sag and droop due to pregnancy, breastfeeding, or weight loss. This breast ptosis is attributed to the stretching of supporting ligaments and changes in skin elasticity. To address these concerns, and restore a more youthful, firm, and perky appearance, many clients pursue breast surgery. If you want to improve sagging breasts, a breast lift in Parker County may be the best solution for you.
Enhance the shape of your breasts with a breast lift performed by Dr. Steele. The procedure will remove excess skin and raise your breasts higher on your chest. A breast lift improves sagging, firmness, and positioning. This procedure will center the nipple/areolar complex and reduce the areola size as well.
A breast lift in Parker County is not for everyone. If you plan to become pregnant or breastfeed in the future, consider postponing your breast lift. Your breasts will likely stretch during pregnancy and offset the results of your breast lift and affect milk production. Breast size is also of consideration, as women with smaller breasts generally experience longer-lasting results. It is important to note that a breast lift does not significantly affect breast size. However, it can be combined with breast augmentation or reduction to improve both breast shape and size.
When you come in for your initial consultation, we will assess your medical history, including family history of breast cancer. We can then review any previous mammograms or breast biopsies, and discuss your medications, supplements, and past surgeries. Dr. Steele will perform a physical exam of your breasts, nipples, and areolae while discussing your goals and desires for a breast lift. Make sure you understand the risks, including scarring and changes in nipple or breast sensation.
Your Parker County breast lift surgery will be performed at our accredited outpatient surgery center. You will immediately notice an improved appearance of your breasts, and their shape will continue to evolve over the following few months. Bras and bathing suits can usually hide scars from a breast lift. As your breasts become firmer and rounder, your bra size might be slightly smaller afterward. Breast lift results are permanent, but factors such as weight gain, aging, and your genetics can lead to recurrent breast sagging. However, breast revision surgery is always an option if your results change over time.
After surgery, your breasts will be bandaged, and we will provide a surgical support bra. Small drainage tubes might be temporarily inserted at the incision sites. Your breasts may be swollen, bruised, and sore for several weeks, along with temporary numbness in your nipples, areolae, and breast skin that may last up to 6-12 months. Initially, your scars may appear red and lumpy, but they will fade and become thinner over time.
Experience enhanced confidence, youthfulness, and an improved quality of life with a breast lift in Parker County. Dr. Steele will guide you through the benefits and risks associated with the procedure, ensuring you have a comprehensive understanding of your options.
