Breast Lift
A breast lift, or mastopexy, is designed
to raise breasts that have begun to sag. This operation can
also be performed when the breasts are sagging just a small
amount but are deficient in volume. Sometimes a small augmentation
will suffice or can be added for additional volume.
A mastopexy is designed in similar fashion
to a breast reduction,
but instead of removing breast tissue, I elevate, infold,
and remodel your breast tissue. The operation is done under
general anesthesia and takes
about two hours. Most patients can go home the same day.
I will ask you to return to the office three to five days after surgery, when you will be asked to bring a sports bra to wear for support. You are then free to shower and bathe, but I will ask you to refrain from sports and strenuous activities for two to three weeks.
If you would like to know more about this procedure, call us at 502-216-3700 or email me at info@drkavka.com and we will send you an informative brochure.
