Breast Lift in Toronto & Whitby

What are the Conditions for a Breast Lift?

A Toronto breast lift is specially designed to treat the following conditions that are frequently experienced by women.

• Sagging and/or drooping breasts
• Nipples pointing downward
• Loss of firmness and volume in breasts

By lifting and reshaping sagging breasts, breast lift surgery has the capability to rejuvenate body proportions, change how clothing fits, and especially how the breasts look without clothing. When done with an expert plastic surgeon, the overwhelming majority of women are satisfied with their Mastopexy and have reported a renewed sense of self-confidence and happiness because of their aesthetic improvements.

How Much Does a Breast Lift Cost in Toronto?

A breast lift is a highly personalized procedure. The cost of your Toronto breast lift will vary based on the type of breast lift performed along with other factors.

What to Expect the Day of Breast Lift Surgery

One of the most popular and fastest-growing procedures in Toronto, breast lift surgery is a contouring procedure that involves the lifting and tightening of the breast skin to modify and reshape sagging or drooping breasts. This breast surgery restructures the breast skin envelop to lift the breast tissue and form it into a fuller, rounded shape. Nipples that have lowered and point downward can be adjusted to a higher position relative to the breast mound. As well, areola size can and often is altered to the patient’s preference during a breast lift.

Different techniques are available depending on the individual patient’s goals for the procedure. Traditionally, incisions along the breast crease, vertically and around areolas, were designed to remove excess skin and completely revise the shape and position of breasts. This approach is often referred to as the “anchor” technique. Depending on the client, incisions and scarring can be minimized with a “short scar” or lollipop approach. As well, areola resizing and minor lifting can also be achieved through a circumareolar lift, which eliminates the vertical and crease incisions.

Dr. Golger and Dr. Romy are known for their leading-edge, short scar and minimal scarring techniques, which achieve dramatic results without the use of drains.

The first incision created by your plastic surgeon will surround the areola and utilizes short, vertical lines underneath to lift the breast. Breast skin is carefully gathered around the areola set at a higher position. Finally, the edges are brought together carefully and sutured internally to create clean, minimal scar lines. At this point, if a patient is also receiving a breast implant, the plastic surgeon will insert the implant under the breast tissue and/or pectoral muscle. This common combination of cosmetic procedures is also referred to as augmentation mastopexy.

A typical Toronto breast lift surgery will take between 2-3 hours to complete under a general anesthetic, or local anesthetic combined with intravenous sedation.

Breast Lift Recovery Process

Following the completion of your Toronto breast lift, incisions are protected with surgical tape and a supportive, post-operative bra is sometimes advised but will be decided between the patient and doctor.

Our team will also provide you with detailed aftercare instructions, a prescription for pain medication, and antibiotics. We will arrange for you to come back to our clinic soon after your procedure for follow-up care and instructions.

Though our patients typically report very little discomfort after their breast lift, don’t be surprised to see swelling or minor bruising during the first week. It is important to remember that your body will require time to completely heal and adjust after your Toronto breast lift procedure. After a few short weeks, the majority of swelling has diminished and breasts will begin to soften- relaxing into their new shape.

While your incisions are new, they may appear pink, firm, and slightly raised, this is a normal and expected part of the scar maturation process and they can be expected to soften and fade over time.

Due to the body’s natural healing process, the results of a breast lift surgery are not complete immediately, but after a few months; your new, youthful breast contours can be fully appreciated.
