Breast Lift by Dr. Miller

Benefits of Breast Lift- Vertical technique

A breast lift may be recommended for a woman who has lost shape and fullness in her breasts due to pregnancy and nursing, or due to the natural aging process that we all face. A breast lift might also be called for if a woman has lost a significant amount of weight – including her breasts – which are now sagging and drooping. Orlando breast lift candidates should be in good health (both physically and mentally), be non-smokers and have realistic expectations about the results of the procedure. Breast lifts do not add volume to the breasts but can be combined with a fat grafting augmentation procedure if the patient desires both lift and fullness. Some patients may choose to have breast reduction or breast augmentation combined with a lift if their sagging is due to excessively large breasts or loss of volume, unwanted attention or other undesirable symptoms.

Is Breast Lift Right for You?

As a woman, Dr. Miller understands that Orlando breast lift candidates want to feel welcomed and relaxed when they come into a doctor to speak about their appearance and their desires for their breasts, especially when they’re unhappy with the way this very personal part of their body looks. This is why Dr. Miller takes every precaution to make her patients as comfortable as possible.

If you live in or around Orlando and have sagging breasts, you’ve likely found this site because you’re researching your options for a breast lift, and you’re wondering about a term that keeps popping up in your search results: “vertical breast lift.” Commonly referred to as a lollipop breast lift, this incision type is first made around the areola, then from the bottom center of the areola to the top of the breast crease (creating a lollipop-looking scar).

Would I need a breast lift?

Dr. Miller performs her breast lift using the vertical technique. A vertical breast lift is ideal for women who have sagging breasts and a nipple droop of at least 5 centimeters. This incision type gives Dr. Miller ample room to lift and reposition your breasts and remove any and all unwanted, sagging and drooping skin. Additionally, the vertical breast lift incision is popular amongst women who want to have less scaring. This procedure can be combined with a breast augmentation from fat grafting, which provides a lift with fullness.

Vertical Breast Lift Scars

Just like its nickname, a vertical breast lift leaves a lollipop shaped scar on Orlando women’s breasts. These scars, however, will always be hidden by your bra or bathing suit. The scars will only be visible when your breasts are bare. After a vertical breast lift, many of Dr. Miller’s patients report that it helped them achieve the dramatic lift they were looking for, given the amount of breast sagging they were experiencing before surgery.
