Who is a Candidate for a Breast Lift (Mastopexy)?

Mastopexy

The breast lift, clinically known as mastopexy, is one of the most highly requested cosmetic surgery procedures at My Cosmetic Surgery. This treatment is ideal for women who wish to restore the firmness and youthfulness of their breasts through a highly effective aesthetic surgery.

Why Choose Mastopexy? Combat Ptosis

The breast lift focuses on eliminating breast sagging (flaccidity), elevating the breast, and improving its overall appearance. Simultaneously, the position of the areola and nipple is adjusted to achieve a natural and harmonious result.

This breast surgery is the ideal solution for women seeking to:

  • Improve the appearance of their breasts.
  • Combat sagging and lack of firmness.
  • Restore the upright position of the breasts, from cases of slightly dropped breasts to situations of severe mammary ptosis.

By choosing a breast lift, patients not only achieve a more youthful appearance but also gain confidence and satisfaction with their body.

Candidacy Criteria and Ideal Measurements

Our plastic surgeons consider various factors to determine if you are an ideal candidate for a breast lift. While the patient’s desire is key, professional anatomical evaluation is crucial.

Specialists establish standardized measurements to evaluate the need for mastopexy. For example, the distance between the sternal notch (the visible dip at the top of the chest where the neck meets the sternum) and the nipple indicates the breast height for each woman. The ideal measurement typically ranges:

  • Average Women: 19 to 21 centimeters.
  • Tall Women: 21 to 22 cm.
  • Petite Women: 17 to 19 cm.

Furthermore, the aesthetic goal includes optimizing areola dimensions (ideally 4 cm in diameter) and the distance from the nipple to the inframammary fold. These details are personalized based on the woman’s height, shoulder size, and overall appearance.

Fundamental Requirements for the Ideal Candidate

Patients interested in a breast lift must meet essential requirements to ensure a safe surgery and a successful recovery:

  • General Health: Must be in optimal physical and mental condition.
  • Stable Weight: Maintain a healthy body weight.
  • Smoking Habit: Must not smoke (smoking compromises healing).
  • Pregnancy: Must not be pregnant or planning a pregnancy in the months following the procedure.
  • Realistic Expectations: Have a realistic outlook on the expected results.
