Breast Lift
DR. CHARLES
BAILEY, JR., MD, FACS, FICS
Board
Certified Surgeon
As a woman ages, her
skin loses some elasticity, causing the
breast to sag under the pull of gravity.
Pregnancy can cause the breast to lose firmness
and volume. A breast lift, or Mastopexy,
is a procedure for safely lifting the sagging
breast. In the procedure, excess skin is
removed and the nipple raised to a higher
position.
The breast skin is reshaped
and tailored to create a more youthful breast.
For better results, Dr. Bailey may recommend
the use of saline breast implants along
with the mastopexy procedure. Even though
this surgery does not affect future pregnancies
or breast feeding, the results may not be
as long lasting.

Women who are planning
pregnancies may wish to postpone this procedure.
The surgery can be performed
as an outpatient and takes approximately
2-3 hours to complete. Most patients can
return to work within 4-5 days following
surgery. After your procedure Dr. Bailey
may offer a visit to your
home by a plastic surgery nurse, trained
to assist in your recovery.
