Optimize your Body with a Breast Lift in Beverly Hills

A breast that sits high and proud and is proportional to the rest of the torso is truly the ideal. Unfortunately, your breast skin and tissue can stretch with age, pregnancy, breast feeding, weight gain/loss, and menopause. The result is a droopy looking breast that may make you feel less than your best. A mastopexy or breast lift is a surgical procedure to lift and re-shape your breast so that it sits higher on your chest wall. It is one of the ultimate confidence boosters.

WE TAKE PRIDE IN PRICE TRANSPARENCY

Are You a Candidate for a Breast Lift?

The best candidate for a breast lift is any woman:

in good overall health
a non-smoker
finished having children
within 15 lbs. of a maintainable goal weight
up-to-date with breast screening
who is bothered by sagging breasts

The reason that Dr. Nazarian likes her breast surgery patients to be at a weight that they can comfortably maintain is that any significant weight gain, typically 20 lbs. or more, may change your breast lift results.

Types of Breast Lift

There are different degrees of sagging or ptosis in the breast skin and tissues. All can be improved with a breast lift procedure. But patients with a smaller amount of ptosis may do well with a different type of breast lift incision than those with a larger amount of excess skin. Dr. Nazarian offers her Beverly Hills and beyond patients four different types of breast lift:

anchor shaped incision
lollipop breast lift
donut mastopexy
BodyTite™ scarless lift

The differences lie in the extent of the incision. The right one for you is going to depend on the laxity of your breast tissue, the amount of loose skin that needs to be excised as well as your willingness to tolerate scars. Keep in mind, however, that scars on the breast typically heal extremely well. So, it is important that you get the breast lift that will best deliver your ideal outcome. Scar therapy and lasers are also available in-office to help improve the appearance of any scars.

BodyTite™ Scarless Breast Lift

The BodyTite™ is a minimally invasive procedure that can be used to give 2-3 cm of lift in those patients who are also able to tolerate a half cup size reduction. During your BodyTite™ procedure, Dr. Nazarian places a radiofrequency (RF) probe under the skin through a tiny needle poke, making it basically scarless. The RF energy melts fat while also tightening and lifting the skin as well as the ligaments beneath your skin. It is a great new technology that is used all over the body and can be an amazing option for patients who desire a slight reduction, and a lift.

Breast Lift Recovery Time

Regardless of the type of mastopexy that you and Dr. Nazarian choose, the procedure is performed as an outpatient procedure under general anesthesia in an accredited surgery center or operating room. After the procedure, you will be placed in support wrapping that is removed in a day or two. Patients can expect to be bruised and swollen after their breast lift procedure. Most patients take narcotics for a day or two, and then transition to Tylenol to manage any discomfort. While on narcotics, it is important to stay away from operating heavy machinery. This includes driving a car. Antibiotics will also be prescribed for a week. Dr. Nazarian likes her breast lift patients to take it easy for 2 weeks — no heavy lifting, no reaching across counter tops, and no baths/saunas/hot tubs (1 month). You can start to ease back into your normal routine at 2 weeks. This may include light walking in the mall. You can start back to more intense workouts at 4 weeks, but please hold off on any upper body work for about 4-6 weeks. You want to give your body the time to really heal. While you will notice a huge improvement in your body contour immediately, it can take anywhere from 3-6 months for the swelling to fully subside and for you to see your final, final results.

Why Nazarian Plastic Surgery for your Traditional Breast Lift Procedure?

Dr. Nazarian and her team’s goal with every procedure is to make you as comfortable as conceivably possible. For most surgical procedures, she likes her patients to increase their protein intake both before and after surgery. She has found that this really helps to jump-start your recovery so that you heal faster. She does not recommend dieting either before or after surgery. Medical-grade arnica, bromelain, and Vitamin K should also be started one month before surgery. These are available in-office.

If you want to make positive changes for your appearance while boosting your self confidence, this is the right place for you. Nazarian Plastic Surgery has a team of highly experienced and caring professionals ready to help you achieve your goals. Our team includes a Board Certified Beverly Hills Plastic Surgeon, Registered Nurse, and Aestheticians who are committed to providing you the safest and best in plastic surgery and non-surgical procedures.

Finally, at Nazarian Plastic Surgery we have an on-site, state of the art surgical facility, as well as modern and comfortable out-patient treatment suites. These added benefits help ensure that we meet our goal of achieving the most natural-looking and optimal results, while always keeping your safety first.

Consultation Information

If you would like more information about this procedure, please call Nazarian Plastic Surgery at (310) 659-0500 or request a consultation today. Dr. Nazarian will discuss your options and help determine a procedure plan that is right for you and achieve your aesthetic goals. Our Beverly Hills location is conveniently located near major roads and freeways, it’s very easy to find us.

It is impossible to say without seeing you in person or at least a photo. In general, if your nipples rest at or below the inframammary fold, which is the crease under the breast, then you are probably going to need a breast lift. If the nipples hover somewhere in the lower half of the breast, it is possible that you could get away with a small implant. My best advice would be for you to schedule a consultation and come in to our Beverly Hills office to be assessed.

I always think it’s best to push off the breast lift until you are done having children as pregnancy and breastfeeding are going to re-stretch the skin and tissues of the breast. But it really depends on how miserable you are right now. As long as you are aware that you may need a “touch up” to your breast lift after you are done having kids, then there is no reason not to have it done now if you’d like.

I’ve never had one so I can’t speak from personal experience, but my breast lift patients are always surprised at just how easy the recovery actually is. You will be restricted in your movements for a few weeks. But not in a “lay on the couch” kind of way. You simply have to be cautious about your arm movements. The hardest part for many is sleeping on their back for the first week.

Every woman is wary of the idea of scars on the breast. They are such a crucial part of our sexuality. But the incisions on the breast really do heal well. I generally find that my breast lift patients feel so good about how great their new lifted breasts look that they don’t even think about the scars. They are super excited to have their nipples pointing forward under a tank top! And I have never heard a husband or boyfriend complain. In case the scars are less than ideal, we have all the lasers to help!

Yes, at Nazarian Plastic Surgery and Spa26 we offer financing through third-party providers, Care Credit and LendingUSA, both of which offer our patients 0% interest for up to 6 months!

At first, things are going to feel off. Your nipples may be super sensitive and a bit numb. It’s a weird combination. But as the breasts continue to heal, everything should return to normal. This may take 6 months or more, however, so be patient.

At Nazarian Plastic Surgery, we have built a state of the art certified surgical center located right in our office to ensure patients have the most comfortable experience while undergoing any surgical procedures.
