Breast Lift in Cedar Park, Westlake, and Austin

Over time, various factors such as pregnancy, breastfeeding, weight changes, heredity, and gravity can cause your breasts to lose elasticity, shape, and fullness. These changes can impact not only your appearance but also your self-esteem and confidence. Fortunately, breast lift surgery offers a solution for women looking to improve their self-image and regain a youthful appeal. If you’re considering a Breast Lift in Cedar Park, Breast Lift in Westlake, or Breast Lift in Austin, our team at Hall Plastic Surgery & Rejuvenation MedSpa is here to help.

Are You Ready for a Breast Lift?

A woman considering breast lift surgery should have clear goals for the procedure and make an informed decision in consultation with her surgeon. This procedure is ideal for women satisfied with their breast size but seeking a more youthful, confident appearance. Candidates include women in good overall health who experience sagging breasts, loss of firmness and elasticity, or a flat, elongated shape. A breast lift is also suitable if your nipples point downward, fall below the breast crease when unsupported, or if the skin around the areola is stretched.

Will the Procedure Enlarge My Breasts?

A breast lift is not designed to enlarge the existing breast. However, a breast implant can be inserted during an enlargement procedure performed in conjunction with the breast lift surgery.

The Breast Lift Procedure

Breast lift surgery involves tightening and lifting the breasts. The most common procedure includes three incisions: one around the areola, a second extending vertically from the areola to the breast crease, and a third horizontal incision along the breast crease. Excess skin is removed, and the nipple and areola may be repositioned to a natural height. The result is a firmer, reshaped breast with a more visually pleasing contour.

Additional points to consider:

• A breast lift is not intended to enlarge the existing breast, but a breast implant can be added during the lift if desired.
• The change will be evident immediately, with results improving as swelling subsides and the breasts take on a more balanced, natural appearance.
• The procedure can also reduce the size of an areola.

In some situations the sagging breast is not severe and can be improved with a skin tightening procedure called BodyTite using radiofrequency energy. This technology is used in other areas of the body with skin laxity to achieve a better contour or tightening. It has the advantage of minimal scars.
