Breast Lift
Breast Lift Surgery in Princeton, New Jersey
As a natural side effect of aging, our skin begins to produce less and less collagen, which is the essential protein responsible for keeping the skin tight and youthful-looking. In addition to lost collagen, women who have been pregnant and/or breastfed often experience some sagging or loose skin in the breasts afterwards, leading to an aged appearance. To restore the appearance of the breasts and help enhance women’s self-confidence, Dr. Jill Hazen offers breast lift procedures in Princeton, New Jersey.
What a breast lift can do
This procedure lifts the breasts by removing excess skin to achieve a perkier, firmer, more youthful-looking breasts with discreet scars. The main benefits of a breast lift include:
- Restoring volume to the breasts
- Balancing breasts that are uneven in size or shape
- Correcting nipples that are positioned very low
- Improving sagging breast skin
- Correcting breast tissue that has migrated down
Breast lift surgical details
During a breast lift, Dr. Hazen removes excess skin, lifts and re-shapes the breast tissue, and may also re-position the nipple to achieve a balanced result. Every patient has a unique breast shape and size. Because of this, Dr. Hazen will meet with each patient during a consultation prior to the procedure to learn about expectations and concerns to ensure a comfortable treatment and amazing results.
The procedure is performed under general anesthesia and takes 2 to 3 hours, unless another procedure (such as adding implants) is being done as well.
"I simply cannot say enough about the outstanding care that I received from Dr. Hazen and her team before, during and now 6 months after my breast reduction/lift procedure. I cannot express how much of a difference this has made."
