What Is A Breast Lift?
Many women notice changes in their breasts over time, whether from pregnancy, aging, or weight fluctuations. A breast lift (mastopexy) offers a way to reshape and restore your breasts, helping you feel more like yourself again. Dr. John L. Clayton works closely with each patient at John L. Clayton, MD at Southridge Clinic Plastic Surgery, ensuring a personalized approach that's built around your individual goals. Our plastic surgery practice in Riverton, UT is dedicated to providing care that goes beyond the procedure, giving you the support you need through each step of your journey. Interested in learning how a breast lift could work for you? We welcome you to schedule a consultation with our team.
How Does A Breast Lift Work?
Breast lift surgery is performed under general anesthesia to ensure your comfort throughout the procedure, which typically lasts 2 – 3 hours. Dr. Clayton begins by making incisions along the natural contours of the breasts, usually around the areola and extending downward. Excess skin is removed, and the underlying breast tissue is lifted and reshaped to create a firmer, more youthful appearance. The nipple and areola are often repositioned to a higher, more natural position. Once the desired shape is achieved, the incisions are carefully closed with sutures, and your breasts are wrapped in a supportive dressing to aid in healing.
Depending on the shape of your breasts and your aesthetic goals, you might benefit from a breast lift, breast augmentation, or both. A breast lift without implants is an excellent option for women looking to restore a youthful appearance to their breasts without increasing size. While a breast augmentation focuses on enhancing volume, a breast lift reshapes and lifts the breasts to a more natural, perkier position. If you're curious about the difference between a breast lift and breast augmentation, we encourage you to reach out to our team. We're here to help you explore the best option based on your goals and concerns.
What Are the Benefits of A Breast Lift?
For women who feel that their breasts no longer reflect their body's natural beauty, a breast lift offers a chance to restore confidence and regain a youthful appearance. Whether you want to reverse the effects of aging, weight loss, or pregnancy, the benefits of a breast lift include:
- Lifting and reshaping sagging breasts to a more youthful position
- Achieving a firmer and more elevated appearance without implants
- Improving breast symmetry for a balanced, natural look
- Feeling more comfortable and confident in clothing, especially bras and swimsuits
- Long-lasting results that help you feel revitalized in your own skin
If you're considering a breast lift, it's natural to have questions about the cost and available financing options. Our team is here to provide clear answers and help you explore how this procedure can align with your aesthetic goals.
Breast Lift Reviews
Dr. Clayton is fantastic! - Riverton, UT - Dr. Clayton is fantastic! I am a mother of 4 and my first pregnancy was with twins. My ob/gyn let me know after my twins that a tummy tuck would be the only way to repair my stomach so I have planned on having one for the past 16 years. I had a consultation 6 years ago when I knew I was done having children but I just didn't feel good about it after meeting with the same plastic surgeon that had done my implants years before. I decided this year to look into it again and maybe get a breast lift and replace my 16 year old saline implants. I looked for plastic surgeons online and read up on many. I was impressed with Dr. Clayton's bio and reviews and so I scheduled a consultation with him. I had assumed that I would meet with multiple surgeons and hopefully find someone I could trust. When I met with Dr. Clayton I felt comfortable with him immediately. He explained the procedures and helped me to have realistic expectations. I ended up scheduling my surgery and I am now almost 6 weeks post op. I am already so impressed with my results! My scars look better than I could have imagined and both Dr. Clayton and his medical assistant have been helpful with any questions or concerns that I have had. I know that he will give me whatever time I need at my visits and I never feel rushed through. I am extremely glad that I found Dr. Clayton!
Amazing Results - Was very impressed with the whole job/experience. Very professional. Was hesitant about getting a breast lift and very happy with the results. Hospital staff and doctor was great. Would definitely refer people to him.
