Breast Lift

Sagging breast surgery is a Breast Augmentation procedure that corrects breasts that have sagged due to laxity of breast tissue and skin, based on the degree of sagging, nipple position, skin elasticity, and presence of volume deficiency. ID Hospital evaluates nipple position in relation to the inframammary fold and determines whether to use an implant, remove sagging tissue, and combine Stem Cell Fat Grafting according to the stage of Breast Ptosis Correction and the type of upper-pole volume deficiency.

Self-Assessment for Sagging Breasts

The degree of sagging is assessed by checking the nipple position in relation to the inframammary fold (breast crease).

Normal

The nipple is positioned 4–5 cm above the inframammary fold.

Stage 1 Sagging

The nipple is within 1 cm of the inframammary fold.

Stage 2 Sagging

The nipple is within 1–3 cm of the inframammary fold.

Stage 3 Sagging

The nipple is positioned 3 cm or more below the inframammary fold.

Surgical Methods by Degree of Sagging

Grade 1–2 Breast Ptosis Correction

An implant is inserted to increase size and improve the breast contour by enhancing shape and symmetry.

Grade 3 or Higher Breast Ptosis Correction

Sagging Breast tissue is removed to correct breast sagging, and an implant is inserted to restore volume.

Breasts With Mild Sagging and No Upper-Pole Volume

An implant helps correct breast sagging, while Stem Cell Fat Grafting fills in the hollow upper-pole area to improve both volume and balance.

Incision Methods

The incision method is selected according to the degree of sagging, skin elasticity, and breast size.

Periareolar Incisional Method

This method involves an incision around the areola to remove part of the breast tissue. It may be performed when breast sagging is not severe.

Vertical Incisional Method

This method involves an incision around the areola and a vertical downward incision of approximately 4–5 cm. It addresses the limitations of the periareolar incisional method and the inverted T incisional method.

Inverted T Incision Method

This method involves an inverted T incision from the nipple to the inframammary fold. It is suitable for large breasts with severe sagging or when little skin elasticity remains.

Boost-Up Breast Augmentation

This approach creates overall volume with an implant and also improves hollow upper-pole volume with Stem Cell Fat Grafting. Fat and stem cells are grafted together to enhance retention and reduce the burden of fibrosis, aiming to create balanced breasts that appear sagging.

Preoperative Considerations

· Nipple position and distance from the inframammary fold · Stage of Breast Ptosis Correction and skin elasticity · Breast size and presence of upper-pole volume deficiency · Whether to combine implant insertion and Stem Cell Fat Grafting

Please Be Sure to Review

Recovery time after sagging breast surgery may vary depending on the stage of Breast Ptosis Correction, incision method, whether an implant is inserted, whether Stem Cell Fat Grafting is combined, the extent of tissue removal, and the individual’s recovery condition. Recovery and Scar Revision care plans should also be reviewed according to the incision extent. The surgical method and results may vary depending on the individual’s condition and are determined through consultation with a specialist.
