Many women pride themselves on having perky, high, and firm breasts. As you age, your breasts may sag creating an undesired wrinkled and aging appearance. Although this occurs naturally over time, you may feel embarrassed and miss your youthful body. Dr. Phil Richardson offers mastopexy in Brisbane for women suffering from sagging breasts.

What is a Mastopexy?

Sagging breasts occurs when the muscles and tissues that support the breast begin to weaken and the breast sags. Many conditions may lead to sagging breasts.

• Breastfeeding
• Weight fluctuations
• Aging
• Gravity
• Heredity

In order to restore the breast to its original shape, breast lift surgery or a mastopexy is the best treatment option.

What Happens During a Mastopexy?

Dr. Richardson will create a personalized treatment plan for your breast lift procedure that meets your goals. He will examine your breasts to determine the best option. During the surgery he will reshape your breasts, realign the nipples, and reduce the areola if necessary. He will tighten or remove any loose or sagging breast tissue. Mastopexy procedures may be performed with a breast augmentation for women who desire larger breasts. During your procedure you will be under general anaesthetic to reduce stress and anxiety.

Depending on your treatment plan, he may use several methods to achieve your goal breast shape. The Wise pattern technique is the oldest method and is commonly used by practitioners. He also utilizes the Lejour and Benelli methods, which are newer methods. These techniques are less invasive and reduce scarring so that your breasts appear completely natural.

After your procedure, heavy activity is discouraged for four to six weeks. Risk of complications and infection is minimal but Dr. Richardson and his nursing team will see you at frequent intervals to ensure a proper recovery. You should wear the post-operative bra for the first six weeks following your procedure to properly support and heal your new breasts. You should not drive for two weeks after surgery and heavy work should be avoided for six weeks.
