The type of lift/mastopexy surgery depends on various factors. The surgeon will evaluate your body type, your age, the size and shape of the breast and the amount of excess and quality of skin to be removed.

The Crescent Breast Lift/Mastopexy

This technique is not much used. It is for patients who havea low degree of sag. The incision looks like a crescent place in the upper part of the areola.

Benelli Breast Lift/Mastopexy

In this breast lift/mastopexy procedure, the incision will be made around the areola. The circular incision is made around the areola and one asymmetric circular incision made outside, depending on the surrounding extra skin. This technique is for those candidates that require minimum correction.

Lollipop Breast Lift/Mastopexy

Here circular incisions are made around the areola to reduce the size, and a vertical incision is made from the areola to the breast crease, which resembles the shape of a lollipop. Breast tissue is mobilized and fixed at a higher level.

Wise Pattern Breast Lift/Mastopexy

The wise pattern lift is also termed as an Inverted-T, Inferior Pedicure, or Anchor Breast Lift. The technique is used when a large degree of correction is needed. The procedure uses the lollipop incision along with the horizontal incision in the breast crease.

Breast Lift/Mastopexy with Implant

Some women need an additional lift and increase in volume. After evaluating the degree of droop and shagginess, the placement of the implant is decided. For women who have a moderate to severe breast droop, the breast lift along with augmentation is needed to get upper pole fullness.

Breast Lift/Mastopexy Scars

While performing the breast lift surgery, the surgeon makes the best effort to conceal the scars. The scars fade away with time and are made in inconspicuous areas so that it is covered in the fords of the breast tissues. If scarring is a concern for you, there are various scar reduction procedures available.
