Mamopexy
Why consider a mammopexy?
Over time, due to breastfeeding, weight fluctuations, or hormonal changes, it’s common for breasts to lose their original shape, firmness, and position. This can affect body image and self-confidence.
Breast lift is a recommended surgical option for women who wish to regain the firmness, shape, and height of their breasts without necessarily changing their volume.
This procedure can be performed with or without implants, depending on each patient’s anatomical characteristics and aesthetic goals.
How is this procedure performed?
Mammopexy involves removing excess skin, repositioning the areola, and lifting the breast tissue to restore a more youthful shape to the breast. In some cases, it is combined with implants to improve volume and projection.
Dr. Giovanni Cortés performs a comprehensive assessment beforehand to determine the most appropriate technique: periareolar, vertical, or inverted T, depending on the degree of sagging and the structure of the breast tissue.
The surgery is performed under general anesthesia and typically lasts between two and three hours.
Support includes postoperative follow-up and scar monitoring, ensuring a safe and well-being-oriented process.
What results can you expect?
After recovery, you may notice:
- Visible breast lift with a firmer, more youthful shape.
- Repositioning of the areolas to a more natural location.
- Improved symmetry and bust contour.
- Tighter skin without excess.
- Restored body confidence.
Final results are observed between three and six months after the procedure, depending on the type of tissue and the technique used.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is it possible to perform mastopexy without implants?
Yes. Mastopexy can be performed without implants if the goal is only to lift and reshape the breast tissue.
How long should I wait to see the final result?
The final result is observed between three and six months after the intervention, when the tissue heals completely.
Does the surgery leave visible scars?
Scars depend on the type of technique used. Over time, they fade and can be treated with healing protocols and postoperative care.
Can I breastfeed again after a mastopexy?
In most cases, yes. However, this will depend on the technique used and will be assessed prior to the medical evaluation.
