Breast augmentations involve inserting an implant either beneath or above the chest muscles to add volume to the breasts’ shape. In contrast, a lift does not involve implants, focusing on tightening your tissues and skin to give the appearance of a fuller chest. While both procedures address sagging, getting a breast lift in Port St. Lucie can achieve the results you desire without implants.

Sometimes, if there is sagging and loss of volume, we can perform a combined augmentation and lift. This allows for added volume while also directly treating the source of the drooping in your chest. If you have questions about which option is right for you, Dr. S. Darrell Lee can answer them during your consultation.

Once your surgery is complete, you need to take about 1 to 2 weeks of recovery. You may experience swelling and/or bruising during this period, but this should subside over the course of your recovery. After 2 weeks have passed, you can start noticing even more improvements in the shape and lift of your breasts. Full results usually do not appear until about 3 months after treatment, as it takes time for your body to adjust to the changes Dr. S. Darrell Lee has made.

Proper maintenance is necessary if you want to keep these results in the long-term. This includes managing your weight so that you do not add to your breast fat. This excess fat disappears after weight loss, contributing to further sagging.

Aging is also a factor in breast sagging, which you unfortunately cannot avoid. However, you can take steps to prevent drooping by maintaining a healthy diet and lifestyle. This helps to keep up the strength of your chest muscles while also regulating the amount of fat in your breasts.

No need to worry about paying the full amount upfront for this surgery. While that is certainly an option, we also offer financing through CareCredit and Alphaeon. This service is similar to a credit card, allowing you to pay in monthly installments for our services. However, you only use this account to cover the costs of treatments. For any questions about how CareCredit can help you pay for your breast lift in Port St. Lucie, contact us and we can answer them for you.

While a breast lift can help reduce the amount of sagging skin in your breasts as a result of aging, weight loss, or nursing, it is not a completely permanent solution. You may be able to avoid changing the shape of your breasts by maintaining your weight and not becoming pregnant in the future. However, aging is inevitable. As your skin loosens, you are likely to notice further drooping in your chest.

Thankfully, we have plenty of aesthetic treatments for aging breasts. This includes further surgical options that can help keep the skin on your chest tight and firm.
