Is Breast Lift a Permanent Operation?

Breast lift (mastopexy) is a surgical operation performed to change the shape of the breast with a saggy appearance, rejuvenate it and put it in a more attractive form. In a breast lift operation the tissue inside is reshaped and excess skin is removed. With this kind of surgery, your breast size and dimension will not change; If you want to have an operation for this purpose, you can choose breast enlargement or reduction surgeries or you can include them in this operation.

Factors such as old age, gravity, weight loss, pregnancy, breastfeeding may lead to loss of elasticity in the breasts and cause sagging. These problems with your breasts are eliminated by breast lift surgery. With this operation, the sagging is reduced, the nipples are erected and they are hardened by adding volume.

Breast lift operation, although it is long lasting, its effects are not permanent. Since this operation does not have an anti-aging effect, depending on the time, sagging will start to appear on your breasts with the negative effect of gravity. After the operation, you can slow down this process by following your doctor’s instructions and following a balanced lifestyle. It is also important to stay at a stable weight, as weight gain and loss will be effective in breast sagging. Tough breast lift surgeries are made for breasts of all sizes, it has been observed that women with small breasts get long lasting results.

If you are thinking about becoming a mother and breastfeeding your baby after the breast lift surgery, it would be good to postpone this operation. Because a new pregnancy process will disrupt the positive effect of the operation and cause sagging in your breasts. Your breasts will grow due to the weight you gain during the pregnancy and edema, and will cause sagging and excess skin formation after pregnancy. In addition, breast lift surgeries may restrict milk production in some mothers as the nipple is displaced.

It has been observed that the permanence of breast lift surgery changes from person to person. In this case, genetic features, diet, health, age as well as the techniques used in the surgery are considered as effective factors. In order to maintain the effects of breast lift surgery for a long time, small touches can be carried out every few years if needed. To prolong the effect of the breast lift operation, you should pay attention to the following:

Try to keep your weight stable; Excessive weight gain and loss will cause deformation in your body structure. Weight loss can lead to sagging and excess skin build-up in your body. You should keep your weight under control and if you have a breast lift operation after you think you have lost enough weight you will get better and longer-term results. Healthy life will also make you feel physically well.

If you are considering pregnancy and breastfeeding your baby you should postpone breast lift operation. The breast structure does not contain muscle, it consists of fat and mammary glands. Breasts, therefore, will change in size during periods of pregnancy and breastfeeding when weight gain and loss is unstable. This will cause loss of elasticity and even stretch marks.

To prevent your breasts from sagging, you should use a bra that fits your body structure and fits comfortably. You can prevent sagging by supporting your breasts with a bra, especially when doing sports.

Try to increase the elasticity of your skin. Excessive sunbathing and peeling will disrupt your skin’s elasticity. You should add food rich in vitamins C and E to your diet or you should increase your skin elasticity by taking these vitamins separately.

As a result of the breast lift operation your breasts will become tight and you will feel them full even if the size remains the same. The nipples will be moved and placed in the correct position. If you want your breasts to be enlarged together with breast lift surgery, you can have your breasts enlarged within a single operation using an implant or injection method. Although the result of a breast lift operation is not permanent, you can look younger and more attractive with your new breast form for a long time without the need for any operation.
