Whatever life or gravity has done to your breasts, Re. can help. It doesn’t matter what the cause, a breast lift can give you back your shape.
Raise your breasts along with your expectations. Reversing the sagging often improves your neck and shoulder pain, resulting from your bra needing to hold up your breasts.
A breast lift will raise the position of your nipple and tighten your breast shape. The end result is a fuller, perkier more youthful breast.
Women with droopy breasts commonly have very uneven breast sizes. Asymmetry and uneven sized are corrected as part of a breast lift.
What matters is, they’re your breasts. And if you want them sitting a little higher, if that makes you feel more confident, less self-conscious, more able to wear your favourite dress you can.
For patients that are good candidates for surgery and want flexibility in funding their surgery, financing a breast or body procedure is now an option.
1 hour
Your initial consultation will take about an hour and will be with your surgeon. This gives you and your surgeon the time to help you make the right decision for you, based on your body type, your lifestyle, and your expectations.
1-2 weeks
When you’re ready we book in your procedure. At Re. we believe the preparation for the surgery, and the care you receive after the surgery is as important as the procedure itself. It’s why we developed a special whole-of-journey program called Re.Care.
1 day
You will wake up in the recovery bay of the hospital and your breasts will feel swollen but comfortable. You’ll be wearing your post-surgical bra to support your new breast shape. Most women will stay overnight in hospital.
1-2 Weeks
The first 48-72 hours are mildly uncomfortable but will be well controlled with pain medication. It is ok to shower and get your dressings wet and you can sleep in any position that is comfortable.
By week 2 you can begin to ease back into light physical activities. Most women are able to comfortably start driving
6-8 weeks
You would be back to your normal daily routine and enjoying your new shape. Normal post-operative bruising and swelling should be gone, and your scars will begin to fade and diminish. You are able to fully resume normal exercise.
At the end of this period you will have your first post-operative complimentary laser scar treatment.
Although sometimes some breast tissue is removed as part of a lift, your breasts will definitely be more perky afterwards. You may not even have to wear a bra if you don’t want to.
While there is some conflicting scientific research, the bottom line is that not all patients are able to breastfeed after a breast lift. That said it is usually an operation performed after you have finished breast feeding. It is also important to know that there is a small chance of losing sensation to the nipple, or even losing part or all of the nipple-areola itself, as a result of breast lift. We also reduce the size (diameter) of the areola along with the breast lift so the nipple is in proportion to the new breast size.
All surgery leaves scars. Most scars will fade in time, about 6-12 months, but the scars will be there in some form forever. Keep in mind that not everyone makes the same kinds of scars, this is largely genetic. Some people make pale, thin scars, while others tend to make thicker scars. Breast scars are generally excellent. We use silicone taping and laser treatments to ensure you get the best possible scars.
A breast lift will leave a scar around the areola, (the darker skin around the nipple), one vertically (up-and-down) under the areola, and one horizontally (side-to-side) in the fold beneath the breast. These will typically be hidden by your bra after the surgery.
Yes! But you need to meet these criteria.
(a) at least two-thirds of the breast tissue, including the nipple, lies below the infra-mammary fold
(b) 1 year to 7 years, after completion of the most recent pregnancy
We will let you know if you qualify as part of your consultation.
