Breast Lift

Performed in Atlanta, GA by Dr. John L. LeRoy.

A breast lift can address problems of sagging and drooping breasts that take on a drooping appearance to create a tighter, firmer, and “perkier” bust line. Dr. John L. LeRoy can eliminate the excess skin and reposition the muscle and breast tissue for a more youthful appearance

Breast lift surgery can help women whose breasts are sagging or drooping due to a variety of factors, including:

• Recent pregnancy
• Weight loss
• Natural aging process
• Genetic disposition

A breast lift can address sagging and drooping by tightening the area and lifting the breasts to a higher position, giving them a more youthful, vibrant appearance.

The Procedure

During a breast lift procedure, Dr. John LeRoy will make an incision around the areola (the dark-pigmented area around the nipple), down to the crease of the breast. Excess skin is then removed. Dr. LeRoy will tighten the remaining skin and tissue and reshape the breasts, relocating the nipples to a higher position, to give the breasts a much smoother, more youthful aesthetic.

Breast lift surgery typically takes about two hours or less to complete. The procedure is performed under general anesthesia and can be done as an outpatient procedure.

Recovery from breast lift surgery usually involves some swelling and bruising, which should fade as the breasts heal. Any discomfort after the procedure can be managed with compression and medication. Although there will be some scarring after breast lift surgery, it is typically light and will fade to an even lighter appearance with time. Strenuous activities should be avoided in the first few weeks after surgery. Patients can often return to normal daily routines about one week after the breast lift procedure. 

Doctor LeRoy will review all of this information during your initial consultation and pre-op appointment.
