Details of the Inverted-T Breast Lift Surgery
What is the Inverted-T Breast Lift Surgery?
The Inverted-T Breast Lift surgery, also known as an anchor lift, is a procedure designed to remove excess skin and reshape the breast. This technique is particularly effective for patients with moderate to severe breast ptosis.
Key Features of the Inverted-T Breast Lift
Incision Techniques
- Combination of Incisions: The surgery utilizes a vertical keyhole incision and transverse incisions in the breast fold. This combination allows for maximal skin removal and optimal breast shaping.
Areola Preservation
- Areola Attachment: The areola remains connected to the breast tissue, nerves, and blood vessels, ensuring minimal disruption to sensation and blood supply.
Breast Shaping
- Deep Tissue Suturing: Beyond skin removal and tightening, the deep layer of breast tissue may be sutured together to enhance breast contour and firmness.
Areola Repositioning
- Higher Areola Position: The areola is repositioned higher on the breast. Surrounding skin is then wrapped around the breast tissue and secured with dissolvable sutures placed beneath the skin.
Post-Surgery Scarring
Scar Pattern
- Inverted-T Scar: The resulting scar resembles an anchor or an inverted “T”. This includes a scar around the areola, a vertical scar down the center of the breast to the breast fold, and a horizontal scar across the base of the breast.
Scar Length
- Variable Length: The length of the horizontal scar in the breast fold depends on the amount of excess skin that needs to be removed.
Suitable Candidates
Severity of Breast Ptosis
- Moderate to Severe Cases: This surgical technique is most commonly employed in patients with moderate to severe breast ptosis, providing significant lifting and reshaping.
Conclusion
The Inverted-T Breast Lift surgery offers a comprehensive solution for breast lifting and reshaping. By combining multiple incision techniques and focusing on both superficial and deep tissue adjustments, it ensures an enhanced aesthetic result for patients dealing with significant breast sagging. The careful preservation of the areola’s attachment and the strategic positioning of scars help in achieving a natural look while maintaining breast functionality.
