BREAST LIFT SURGERY IN MUMBAI
Restore Youthful Shape & Firmness
Over time, factors like pregnancy, breastfeeding, aging, gravity, and weight fluctuations can cause the breasts to lose their youthful shape and firmness. A breast lift (mastopexy) is a cosmetic surgery designed to raise and reshape sagging breasts, giving them a perkier, more youthful appearance. At Cosmetic Surgery Mumbai, Dr. Manojkumar J Manwani offers expert breast lift procedures tailored to your body type and cosmetic goals — helping you restore confidence and silhouette without altering your natural breast size.

YOUR BREAST LIFT OPTIONS
The amount of lift required and the surgeon’s advice determine which of the three basic incision techniques is used for breast lift surgery. Immediately following a breast lift, incision lines are inevitable. Although people may instinctively favour the procedure that leaves the fewest scars, choosing the treatment that produces the best outcomes is the most crucial consideration.
CIRCUMAREOLAR
This treatment, also known as a donut mastopexy or Benelli lift, entails cutting a circle of tissue out of the area around the areola. For ladies with moderate sagging and smaller breasts, this surgery is ideal. This approach likewise leaves a hardly noticeable scar, much like the crescent technique.
VERTICAL
For this procedure, a lollipop-shaped incision must be created around the areola and vertically downward towards the breast crease. Women with medium-sized breasts and mild to significant sagging might consider this treatment.
FULL
For this procedure, an anchor-shaped incision must be made along the natural breast crease, down towards the breast fold, and around the nipple. For ladies with larger breasts and considerable drooping, this enables the removal of the greatest amount of extra tissue.

RECOVERY AND RESULTS
Patients can instantly benefit from a visibly higher and more youthful breast profile following their breast lift. The surgery frequently has bruising, pain, and swelling as side effects. The majority of adverse effects go away within the first several weeks, however edoema won’t completely go away for several months. Three to seven days after surgery, non-dissolvable stitches and/or surgical drains will be taken out.
Patients should anticipate one week of recovery time and four weeks of rest from heavy activity. Additional assistance with household duties, such as child care during the first week, may be required. To enable a speedy and comfortable recovery, excessive upper body movement and chest pressure must be avoided. After 12 to 18 months, incision scars will first be pink and lumpy before disappearing into thin, white lines. After a few months, when the edoema has receded, the results will be complete.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Women who have finished having children and are dissatisfied with the position of their breasts make good candidates for a breast lift. Breast lift patients should be sure they are through having children in order to ensure they get the most benefit from their procedure. Breast lift surgery can make breastfeeding challenging, and pregnancy can distort outcomes and cause breasts to sag. You can schedule a consultation with us to get a personal assessment of whether you are a good candidate for mastopexy based on the position of your breasts and the outcomes you are hoping to achieve.
A breast lift can reverse the affects of pregnancy and ageing and return your breasts to a more youthful position. It won’t, however, stop the sagging of the breasts. While some patients see results from their surgery that last a lifetime, others eventually need a revision breast lift. Live a healthy lifestyle, keep your weight consistent, and abstain from smoking for the best chance of extending your results.
For 24 to 48 hours, you must keep your bandages in place; during this time, you are not permitted to take a shower. You can take a shower once the bandages have been taken off. However, until your incisions are fully healed, you must refrain from taking a bath or immersing your breasts in still water. After roughly a month, the majority of patients are able to swim.
While your breasts heal, you will need to wear a tight, supportive bra to provide them support while they adapt to their new position. Swelling can also be decreased using compression. For a few weeks, stay away from under-wire bras since they can damage your incisions and change the form of your breasts. After a month, the majority of patients can resume using regular bras.
No, to keep pressure off your chest, avoid sleeping on your stomach for around four weeks. Before your surgery, we will discuss this and any other significant lifestyle changes with you so that you can better position yourself for a rapid and painless recovery.
Which breast lift technique was used during your treatment will determine how visible your scars are. The areola’s surrounding tissue will help any incisions blend in. The results will outweigh any visible scarring, even though incisions in other sites will ultimately disappear to thin white lines. To ensure that scarring is kept to a minimum during and after your surgery, we will take great care.
