Why Do Breast Droop?

Staying in good physical shape is important to most women living in Southern California. The climate, outdoors and beach allow you to be active year-round. Even with exercise, diet and a healthy lifestyle, breast droop cannot be prevented or corrected.

Pregnancy and gravity result in droop of the breasts. A breast lift elevates the nipple and breast tissue and restores the youthful appearance of the breast. An enlarged areola can also be reduced.

Depending on the degree of droop, Dr. Samimi utilizes different techniques and incisions. The incision can be placed around the nipple (donut lift), include a vertical incision (lollypop or vertical lift) or an anchor type incision.

Sometimes Dr. Samimi recommends placing a breast implant in addition to the lift. A small degree of droop often can be corrected by placement of a breast implant alone.

Dr. Samimi is very experienced in performing breast lifts with and without implants. Schedule a complimentary consultation to learn which procedure is best for you.

Recovery

Breast Lift recovery is approximately 4-6 weeks depending on if implants are used or not. Dressings and a surgical bra will be placed on you after surgery. You also may have drains which are used to collect excess blood and fluid postoperatively.
