Your Breast Lift with Dr. Dhivya Srinivasa

Also known as a “mastopexy” procedure, the breast lift is an effective way to restore one or more of your breasts to a more youthful and supple position, correcting drooping and/or sagging that may have developed over time. Sometimes this can develop as a natural part of the aging process, while in other cases a breast lift can restore a more even and symmetrical appearance to the breasts following a significant life event such as pregnancy or a lumpectomy procedure. Even with mastectomy, if one breast was removed and reconstruction, a mastopexy on the other side can optimize the appearance of your breast reconstruction.

If you’re interested in learning more about how a breast lift with Dr. Srinivasa can help you regain the self-confidence that comes with a symmetrical and perky pair of breasts, we’re excited to get to know you and your cosmetic goals. Simply reach out to us at our Thousand Oaks or Los Angeles locations and set up your consultation with a member of our team today.

Is a Breast Lift the Right Choice for Me?

The breast lift procedure is ideal for patients who are unhappy with the position of their breasts and/or nipples, which can follow any number of significant life events. During your consultation with Dr. Srinivasa, she’ll guide you through your options and help you land on the procedure that is right for you. Many of our patients who undergo a breast lift do so because:

  • A mastectomy or lumpectomy procedure has impacted breast symmetry. In this case, a breast lift can create a more symmetrical bust without requiring augmentation or a more extensive procedure.
  • Significant weight loss has impacted the size, volume, or position of one or more breasts.
  • Natural asymmetry can sometimes cause an uneven appearance between the two breasts, especially when this condition has been worsened by the combination of time and gravity.
  • The nipples are pointing downward. A breast lift can reposition the nipple and give the breast a more youthful appearance.

Your Breast Lift at the Institute for Advanced Breast Reconstruction

Your breast lift will be performed as an outpatient procedure, and you’ll be able to return home after your procedure is over. The surgery generally takes between two and four hours to complete, and Dr. Srinivasa will walk you through all the relevant details during your in-person consultation, before the date of your operation. You’ll learn everything you need to know about incision placement, the techniques that will be used during your surgery, and what you can expect in terms of scarring once you’re done healing.

You’ll also get detailed instructions for healing and aftercare, and we’ll schedule follow-up appointments with you to make sure that you’re healing properly. Most patients are back to their normal routines within six to eight weeks, and we’ll make sure you have a detailed schedule that will help you return to your daily life. When you’re ready to learn more about what Dr. Srinivasa and her team can do for you, reach out and set up your consultation with a member of our staff and take those first steps on your life-changing journey.
