Breast Lift

Many women come in wishing to have breast reduction desiring smaller lifted appearance of the breasts. In addition documentation of efforts to treat the neck and back pain with anti-inflammatories, support bras and physical therapy or chiropractic manipulation has to be demonstrated. Once these conditions are met, patients direct needed to qualify based on measurements such as sternal notch to nipple distance which represents the degree of breast drooping or ptosis and estimated of weight of breast resection must equal a standard amount dictated by the Schnurr criteria. In some cases, patient's would not qualify based on a smaller amount of tissue being resected. This 22-year-old patient seemed to qualify for breast reduction however the amount of tissue required to be removed would be prohibitive for her size desires. She was hopeful to go from a 36DDD to a D but the amount required would leave her smaller than that. In this instance, Dr. Lyle performed a small reduction, essentially a breast lift. In some cases, he charges less -the cost of a mastopexy-although a reduction is still achieved and a breast lift is the result. The patient was very happy with her smaller lifted breasts and still had relief from her neck and back pain.
