Dr. Farris will customize your breast lift procedure to address your unique needs and aesthetic goals. Depending on the extent of excess skin and sagging you’re experiencing, Dr. Farris may recommend one of the following techniques:
Periareolar “donut” incision – The incision is made around the perimeter of the areola. This option is used in cases of mild sagging.
“Lollipop” incision – An incision is made around the perimeter of the areola, and another vertical incision extends down to the breast crease. This option is ideal for cases of moderate sagging.
Wise pattern “anchor” incision – An incision is made around the perimeter of the areola and another vertical incision extends down to the breast crease while also extending horizontally along the breast crease. This technique provides the most amount of lifting and is ideal for cases of severe sagging.
Once the incision is made, Dr. Farris will lift and reshape the breast tissue to improve the firmness and contour of the region. Excess skin is removed and remaining skin is tightened. The nipple is then repositioned to a more youthful position.
