Breast Lift in Westchester, New York
Over the years your body goes through a long list of changes. Things like breastfeeding and gravity can take their toll on a woman’s breasts. As the skin loses its elasticity over time, the firmness of the breasts starts to diminish, and they begin to sag. If this sounds familiar and life has left your breasts in a less-than-perky position, a breast lift with an experienced board certified cosmetic surgeon like Dr. Karlinsky can be an excellent way to regain your youthful figure.

What is a breast lift?
Breast lift surgery, medically known as mastopexy, raises and reshapes the breasts to give you a firmer, more contoured look and feel. It achieves these results by removing excess skin and tightening the surrounding tissue. By itself, a breast lift will not add volume to your bosom; however, it can be performed in conjunction with breast implant surgery for further enhancement.
Why choose a breast lift?
Many women are happy with the size of their breasts, but not their appearance. This is due to a loss of skin elasticity that can cause the breasts to droop over time, giving them a sagging or aged look. The aging process, pregnancy, breastfeeding, gravity, genetics, and weight fluctuations can all affect the appearance of your breasts. And, while their size may not have changed, the drooping can give your breasts a flattened or deflated appearance. The nipples may point downward making matters even worse.
How is the breast lift performed?
During your initial consultation with Dr. Karlinsky at our Westchester Surgical Arts offices, she will give you a full overview of what to expect from the entire process, including the precautions to take prior to your breast lift procedure, anesthesia guidelines, and the surgery itself.
Your breast lift procedure will be performed by Dr. Karlinsky from start to finish and will typically take approximately two to two-and-a-half hours. She will begin the process by making a series of incisions around the areola of each breast. Oftentimes, she will pull the breast tissue up and reposition the nipple and areola higher on the breast to create the “lift” effect. During this time, she can also address the size or appearance of your areola and nipple.
Because this is a surgical procedure that does require general anesthesia, Dr. Karlinsky will perform your breast lift in New York City at her Manhattan facility. No overnight stay is necessary and transportation to and from will be provided by us, so you won’t have to deal with any extra hassles when it comes time to undergo the operation. For your convenience, all follow-up appointments will be in our Westchester Surgical Arts offices.
