If you have ever stood in front of a mirror and wished your breasts were firmer, higher or more youthful-looking, a breast lift may be a good option. Over time, gravity, breast feeding or weight loss can leave breast looking droopy and sagging. A breast lift raises the breasts and repositions the nipples to restore the look of a youthful breast. An implant may be used to increase fullness and breast size.

There are many things to consider prior to have a breast lift by Dr. de Ramon. If you have had some or all of the feelings below, you may be a good candidate for the surgery:

  • You are bothered by the appearance and projection of your breasts.
  • You are frustrated trying to find undergarments or other clothes that fit properly and look great.
  • You are embarrassed to wear a bathing suit or plunging neckline due to the shape of your breasts.

In addition, there are several musts to consider before having breast lift surgery.

  • You should be finished nursing children. You must be at a stable weight.
  • You should have small to medium sized breasts for a lift to be most effective. Larger breasts will sag quickly and may not offer good results.
  • You must accept the fact that there will be a scar on the breast after surgery.

During a consultation, Dr. de Ramon will do a physical exam, review the procedure, and answer questions. A second consultation is then scheduled for final questions, and to select a surgery date. Dr. de Ramon has a specially trained patient care coordinator on staff to offer personal care throughout the procedure. Once all the decisions are made, the surgery can take place and you are on your way to a more youthful-looking figure.
