Breast Lift

Not all breasts are the same, and not all of them can be lifted with the same method. Thus, there are a few methods surgeons use while operating, depending on each patient’s condition: the level of sagging, patient’s age and other circumstances.

PeriAreolar Breast Lift: This method is generally preferred if the
sagging is mild. The surgeon makes a small incision on the outer side
of the areola to make a small lift. This method is also known as the
“doughnut” method because of the shape of the areola.

Vertical Breast Lift: This method is preferred if the patient has
moderate sagging or their breasts need reshaping. A vertical breast lift
requires two incisions; a circular one around the areola and a vertical
one from the areola down to the crease of the breast.
The look of these incisions is similar to a lollipop,
thus giving the method its popular name.

Anchor Breast Lift: Just like the previous two methods, the anchor
breast lift also gets its name from the shape of the incisions.
This method requires three incisions: A circular incision outside
the areola, a vertical incision down the crease of the breast and
a horizontal incision along the crease. Most of the time,
this method is used to treat extreme sagging and asymmetry.
