Breast Lift Surgery

Breast lift surgery is a cosmetic procedure that is designed to reshape and lift sagging breasts. The size of your areola — the dark skin around your nipple — can be reduced and your entire nipple complex can be repositioned higher up on your breast for a perkier appearance.

Your Initial Consultation With Dr. Avram

At the time of your initial consultation, you will sit down with Dr. Avram to discuss your breast lift goals. Once all of your questions have been answered, Dr. Avram will assess your chest to determine the best surgical technique for your breast lift based on your desired results and existing anatomy.

Dr. Avram’s advanced training and 15+ years of experience with complex cosmetic, and reconstructive breast surgery cases has made Dr. Avram one of Canada’s most sought after breast surgeons.

With his accumulated experience and established record, Dr. Avram is often called upon by other plastic surgeons for additional training opportunities and assistance with complex breast procedures.

Your Incisions

The most common incisions for breast lift surgery are located in three areas. 1) Around your areola — the dark skin around your nipple, 2) from the base of your areola down toward the bottom of your breast, 3) a horizontal incision along the crease under your breast.

The size of your areola — the dark skin around your nipple — can be reduced. Your areolar complex may be completely removed and repositioned higher up on your breast. Dr. Avram will determine which surgical options are best for you based on your existing anatomy.

Anesthesia

An anesthetist will be present during your surgery to administer a general anesthetic. You will be very comfortable and asleep during your breast lift.

Recovery Time

Breast lift surgery can take anywhere from 1 to 2 hours to perform.

Dr. Avram suggests that you take at least 5 to 7 days off work for recovery. You will receive specific return to work and post operative care instructions to follow. For optimal breast lift results, be sure to follow your post operative care instructions very carefully.
