Breast ptosis correction (mastopexy) with no breast implants.

Mastopexy can be a natural skin only operation. Here are the before pictures with the results 2 months after surgery. This was a Regnault "type B" short scar operation.

Surgical markings before surgery show the planned skin resection. Notice the asymmetry of the breasts before surgery. The markings are drawn with you upright. The surgery permitted restoration of symmetry. After removing the skin, the deeper breast tissue is internally supported. The areola and nipples move up to the top of the circles restoring them to a more youthful appearance.

Here during surgery I am adjusting the skin removal. The triangles of extra tissue were removed after sitting the patient up during surgery. Upright, the breast can be marked for a more natural drape. After removing these triangles, the final breast sculpture was done. See how the drooping skin was the problem. Restoration of nipple areola height and tightening the skin envelope can make a great difference in appearance. No breast implant was added. Solving this three dimensional puzzle requires surgical sculpting.

The results are 2 months after surgery. Scars generally improve over the first 6 months after surgery.
