Breast Lift Turkey

Breast lift surgery is among the interventions performed to prevent breasts from sagging due to gravity and aging or to correct existing sagging. Breast tissue and skin are lifted, excess skin is trimmed, and the breast is reshaped. It can also be applied together with breast prosthesis in some cases. As a result of the surgery, the breasts appear younger and firmer.

Mastopexy is among the surgical procedures performed to reshape sagging and volume-lost breasts. It is generally performed to correct breast sagging that occurs as a result of weakening of breast tissue and connective tissues due to birth, breastfeeding, excessive weight loss or aging. Breast lift surgery can be performed together with breast augmentation or breast reduction .

The operation, also known as breast lift or mastopexy, can basically be defined as plastic surgeons positioning the nipple higher and thus eliminating the sagging appearance of the breast. During the operation, excess and sagging breast skin is removed, thus ensuring that the breast tissue has a tighter structure. Breast lift surgery can be performed for many reasons. Taking the fold point of the breast as the border and looking at where the nipple is on this fold line is the determining factor in the need for lift. In addition, it can be understood whether breast lift is needed at home with a widely preferred application, also known as the “pen test”.

Breast lift surgery is an operation that can be performed in combination with breast enlargement and breast reduction operations. For this reason, it is one of the most frequently performed breast aesthetics. Sagging breasts may cause people to lose self-confidence, not be able to choose the clothes they want, and experience problems in their sexual lives because they feel insecure. Therefore, this operation must be performed so that the person can feel better spiritually, make peace with himself, and smile when he looks in the mirror.

Breast lift surgery price ranges may vary depending on many factors. These may include the doctor’s level of expertise, techniques used, and clinical quality. In addition, factors such as the scope of the surgery, duration of surgery, type of anesthesia, length of hospital stay, post-operative treatment and follow-up may also determine breast lift price ranges.

Breast lift operations can be performed using several different techniques. Procedures performed based on the candidate’s demands and the surgeon’s recommendations are widely preferred, especially in recent years.

• • Vertical – Lollipop method : The method used for people with more significant sagging involves a vertical incision made around the nipple along with a circular incision. This technique is performed by widening the annular incision around the nipple downward, allowing to remove excess skin around the nipple and areola, as well as realign the connective tissue under the breast for breast lift and reshaping.
• • Crescent technique : This procedure is performed by making an incision to remove excess skin on the lower half of the breast. A second incision is then made, extending from the nipple to the lower breast fold, to remove the skin around the areola around the nipple. In this way, the nipple is moved higher and the breast gains a more upright appearance. The crescent technique leaves less visible scars with fewer incisions.
• • Peri-Areolar Lift (Circular Incision Method):   Circular incision methods performed to remove excess skin around the breasts and reshape the breast tissue can be preferred for mild and moderate sagging. It is preferred for patients whose sagging is moderate and breast lift will provide significant benefit. It is performed through an incision around the areola and, like the crescent lift method, is preferred in patients who have had breast augmentation surgery. This method is also an effective method for areola reduction. The scar only occurs around the areola.
• • Inverted T Lift:  It is the preferred method to get the best results in cases where sagging is severe. Three different incisions are used in this technique. The first incision is made around the areola and the other incision is made from the bottom towards the breast fold. Finally, an incision is made to the right and left under this fold. Because of its shape, this method is called reverse T or anchor. It is preferred in operations where breast reduction and lift surgeries are performed in combination. Although some scarring is visible, over time, this scar becomes unnoticeable when viewed from the outside.

References from preferred clinics and doctors may be taken into consideration before the operation. Possible wrong choices can lead to some vital problems, as is known in our country.

Breast tightening surgery is among the surgical procedures performed to solve aesthetic problems caused by sagging breast tissue. Breast sagging usually occurs due to aging, childbirth, breastfeeding, weight loss or genetic factors. Breast tightening surgery may be preferred to achieve a more aesthetic appearance by making the breasts younger, firmer and more lifted. Breast tightening surgery involves removing excess skin and fatty tissue from the breasts. It may also be necessary to remove or rearrange the tissue at the bottom of the breast to reshape the breasts. Stitches, scars, and bruises may occur after surgery, but they usually disappear over time.

Like all aesthetic procedures, there are some factors that should be taken into consideration before and after the interventions applied to the breast area.

• Pre-procedure process : Before breast lift surgery, the patient’s general health condition and breast tissue must be evaluated. Before the surgery, a detailed examination of the patient is performed and, if necessary, imaging tests such as breast ultrasound, mammography or MRI may be requested. Before surgery, it is recommended to avoid using substances that increase the risk of bleeding, such as smoking, blood thinners such as aspirin, and some natural supplements.
•  
• Post-procedure process : After breast lift surgery, mild pain, swelling and bruising may usually occur for a few days. For the first few days after the surgery, the patient is dressed in a dressing or a special bra that limits his movements. After a few weeks, the patient is allowed to return to normal activities. However, strenuous activities such as heavy exercises may need to be postponed for a few weeks or longer as they may affect the healing of tissues. In the postoperative period, especially in the first few weeks, wound care and the use of special bras may be required. Scars begin to heal within a few months and become more subtle over time.

In addition, each patient’s recovery process may be different and full recovery time may vary depending on personal factors.

Before the operation, the person must have a general health examination. It is important that all questions asked by the doctor to obtain medical history are answered completely. It is also important to share mammogram, ultrasound or breast biopsy results, if any.

In addition, information should be given to the doctor about the medications used, operations performed, and whether there are chronic diseases. After all the checks are made and the operation planning is completed, important steps must be taken before the operation in terms of the healing process and permanence.

Mammography: It is important to have a mammogram before the operation. The main purpose of this is to take another mammogram after the operation and the changes that occur can be clearly seen by the experts. In this way, mammograms taken in the future can be interpreted much more accurately.

Quitting Smoking:  Smoking is a substance that has negative effects on the healing process. For this reason, smoking should not be done before and after the operation.

Drug Use:  The use of drugs that may cause any adverse effects in the operation should be avoided. It is recommended not to use blood thinners and not to consume herbal supplements or herbal teas before the operation.

General Health Condition:  If you have a complaint that many people would take lightly, such as a cold or flu, right before the operation, you should definitely inform the doctors. Even the simplest health problem has great importance in all operations performed under general anesthesia.

The drains are removed 1-2 days after the operation to prevent fluid accumulation in the area. Afterwards, it is recommended to use a corset to shape the area properly. There may be swelling and redness in the breast area for two weeks after the operation.

Short-term pain and feelings of pain are also conditions that may occur after surgery. However, it is possible to control it with simple painkillers. Numbness in the nipple and areola lasts for up to 6 weeks. It is important not to tire the arms, not to lift heavy items, to stay away from sexual activities, and not to do heavy sports for the first 2 weeks.

Although the time to return to daily life varies depending on the scope and technique of the operation, it is generally possible to return to normal life within the first week. Desk workers and those who can do their job without tiring their arms can return to work at the end of this period.

Breast lift with liposuction can be preferred as a procedure performed by only reducing the fat in the chest area without breast tissue. This method is generally applied to mild breast sagging and does not cause any change in breast size. During the liposuction procedure, excess fat tissue in the chest area is removed by suction with the help of a thin cannula. In this way, the volume in the chest area decreases and the breasts have a firmer appearance. However, this method is not used for patients with excessive breast sagging. Breast lift with liposuction may require a shorter recovery period compared to other breast lift methods.

Breast lift with filler stands out as a method in which a series of filler injections are used to add volume and shape to the breasts. Hyaluronic acid fillers are generally used in this process. Fillers are injected into the upper and sides of the breasts. Thus, the shape of the breasts is clarified and plumped. This method is only suitable for people with mild sagging and is not recommended for reducing a large breast or lifting a very sagging breast.

Aesthetic operations performed on the breast area, like all procedures, may involve some risks. Chief among these are infection risks. It is necessary to be extremely careful and take the necessary precautions in the post-operative period. In addition, patients should be evaluated for bleeding risks that may occur during surgery. Additionally, although rare, permanent scars may occur in some people. On the other hand, while the healing process may take longer for smokers, some possible problems may arise. Therefore, smoking and alcohol use are not recommended until the healing process is completed, especially for two weeks before the operation.
