Large breasts can often be a burden and come with physical challenges like difficulty exercising or pain in the upper back. Breast reduction surgery can help relive large breast issues for good by reducing excess weight on your chest. But do all breast reductions require a breast lift? Here is some information about the necessity of breast lifts as part of your breast reduction procedure.

If you’re considering a breast reduction, Dr. Sandra Margoles is here to help achieve your goal figure and feel comfortable in your own skin.

Is a Breast Lift Needed After a Breast Reduction?

Many providers will perform a breast lift following a breast reduction surgery, as it ensures that you maintain a firm and youthful bust. Getting a breast lift prevents breast sagging because it removes additional breast tissue and fat. Larger breasts are more susceptible to sagging, so it is common for breast reductions to include immediate breast lift procedures.

 

Some providers believe that breast lifts are necessary components of breast reduction surgery, and for this reason, it is possible to have both procedures at the same time. Just as individuals may experience sagging skin following weight loss, providers look to prevent inevitable sagging due to the extra tissue and fat on the breast and the impact of gravity.

The objective of both procedures is to restore comfortability and personal confidence over the physical appearance of one’s breasts.

What Is a Breast Lift?

Breast lifts are surgical procedures that reshape the breasts to reduce discomfort and increase personal satisfaction with one’s breasts. Excess skin, tissue, and fat will be removed from the breasts during surgery. Repositioning of the nipple and areola is also performed as needed for a lifted and more youthful bust.

Who Is a Good Candidate for a Breast Lift?

Patients who experience movement limitations due to breast size may be good candidates for breast lift and breast reduction. Additional issues such as back, shoulder, and neck pain, and chronic chafing in the breast areas may also make you a good candidate for a breast lift. Both young and mature women may benefit from breast reduction and breast lift procedures.

What Results Can You Expect?

The main expectation for breast lifts and related surgeries is to restore personal comfort regarding the size and pressure of the breasts. You can expect to have significantly reduced pain with exercise and achieve a much more proportionate shape for your physique.
