Breast Lift (Mastopexy) in Oakville, Ontario

Mastopexy is a popular procedure in the Greater Toronto area for women seeking youthful, firmer breasts.

A breast lift in Toronto may be beneficial if you want more youthful and perkier breasts. Some signs that a breast lift might be right for you include:

• Sagging breasts
• Nipples that point downward
• You’re in good overall health
• You have reasonable expectations for the outcome

A breast lift with implants is a common plan of care for those who want enhanced symmetry, shape, and nipple positioning. A breast lift surgery may deplete some of the volume in the breasts, but the addition of implants can restore or improve that further.

By contrast, some women may benefit from breast fat transfer. If you want subtle increases in the volume of breast tissue, fat transfer may be a better option.

That may not be enough detail to determine which method is right for you. For that reason, Dr. Khanna will help you visualize the differences using Vectra 3D imaging, a noninvasive way to see virtual breast lifts with implants and fat transfer differences.

During a breast lift in Oakville, you will be put under general anesthesia to keep you comfortable. Over the next one to two hours, your surgeon will complete the procedure previously agreed upon.

The surgery typically includes excess skin removal and nipple repositioning as needed to create a symmetrical, youthful look. Your surgeon will use the previously planned incision technique, such as the lollipop lift, anchor lift, and periareolar lift. Breast lift techniques vary depending on the level of sagging and patient goals.

There are three different types of breast lift incisions that can be made depending on the severity of the breast laxity:

• The “Benelli” incision is made around the areola only. Your surgeon removes excess tissue and the areola size as needed before drawing the skin together to close. It works like a drawstring.
• The “lollipop” incision is made around the areola and down the front of the breast, in one line, to the inframammary crease. This method minimizes scarring. Your surgeon will remove excess tissue, adjust the areola size as needed, and then close the incision. Approximately 90% of patients will require this technique.
• The full mastopexy involves an incision similar to the lollipop, but an additional incision is made from right to left slightly above the crease of the breast. This incision looks similar to an anchor. This technique is usually used on a patient who has very ptotic or sagging breasts.

Incision placement is based on the degree of sagging and skin elasticity you have in every procedure. When you visit us to discuss mastopexy in Toronto, we will discuss each option for you.

You can expect the following timeline for your breast lift:

• 1-2 weeks: return to light activities.
• 3-6 weeks: swelling subsides.
• 1 year: full results are seen.
• 10-15 years: typical longevity before revision may be needed.

Most people can perform daily activities within a few weeks, but prior to that, you have gauze dresses. A post-surgical supportive bra is recommended for the first six weeks.

In most cases, the breasts may be swollen and bruised, but any discomfort can usually be controlled with pain medications prescribed by our surgeon. The sutures used are dissolvable and, therefore, do not have to be removed, though they may be trimmed in the days after surgery if necessary. No heavy lifting or strenuous activities are allowed for a minimum of four to six weeks, and patients are advised to closely follow their instructions for aftercare for a safe, speedy recovery.

Scarring varies by incision type and fades over time. Dr. Khanna meticulously places incisions to minimize the visibility of scarring as much as possible. The circumareolar lift is often a preferred method for the least visible scarring. The precise amount of scarring depends on the location of the incisions.

When having a breast lift in Ontario, you can expect to see results right away that will improve within the first few months. Typically, these results remain for 10 to 15 years. Factors such as pregnancy, natural aging, and weight fluctuations will contribute to additional sagging as the skin becomes lax.

Patients who have had an implant inserted along with the mastopexy may have a longer-lasting result; however, to maintain the effects of surgery, Dr. Khanna recommends patients adhere to a healthy diet and consistent exercise routine following the procedure.

At ICLS, pricing for a breast lift surgery (or “mastopexy”) begins at $12,900. Please note, however, that the cost often varies based on the techniques being used, whether implants are placed, the addition of other surgeries and other factors.

We always aim to make the financial aspect of care as stress-free as possible for our patients. In addition to accepting all major forms of payment, we work with a third-party company, Beautifi, to help eligible patients finance their care.
