Mastopexy returns firmness and elevated position to your breasts, revitalizing your figure.

Breast Lift with Implants: Volume and Lift
For those looking to not only lift but also increase the size of their breasts, mastopexy with implants is an exceptional option. This procedure combines a breast lift with the placement of implants, offering a significant improvement in size and shape, resulting in a fuller, more youthful contour.

Dr. Raúl Trujillo is specialized in various types of mastopexy to adapt to the specific needs of each patient and achieve the best possible results. The types of mastopexy he handles include:
Periareolar: Also known as the "Donut" technique, it involves an incision around the edge of the areola. It is ideal for patients who require mild correction and skin adjustment, it does not have too much lifting capacity of the areola and nipple.
Vertical: This technique, often called "Lollipop," includes an incision around the areola and another that goes vertically down to the crease of the breast. It is suitable for patients with a moderate degree of drooping who are looking for a more significant lift.
Inverted T or Anchor: This is the most complete technique, ideal for patients with a considerable fall and who need maximum lifting. The incision is made around the areola, vertically toward the breast crease and along the crease. Although it involves more scarring, it allows Dr. Trujillo to make significant adjustments to the shape and position of the breast.
During the initial consultation, Dr. Raúl Trujillo will carefully evaluate your case to determine which of these mastopexy methods is best suited for you, ensuring results that align with your expectations and aesthetic goals.
To ensure the comfort and safety of patients during mastopexy, Dr. Raúl Trujillo prefers to use regional anesthesia, complemented by sedation, allowing for a faster recovery and minimizing postoperative discomfort. This option will be discussed in detail during the consultation to ensure it fits each patient's needs and preferences.
Mastopexy, or breast lift, is designed to lift and firm the breasts, correcting sagging without significantly altering their size, since only the excess skin and volume of the lower pole are removed. Mastopexy with implants, on the other hand, not only lifts the breasts but also increases their volume, especially useful for improving the volume of the upper pole of the breast, which is emptied after pregnancy, breastfeeding and weight loss; The implant will provide a fuller, more youthful appearance.
Mastopexy with implants allows Dr. Raúl Trujillo to place an implant under the breast tissue or pectoral muscle, which adds volume and projection to the upper pole of the breast. This approach is ideal for patients who wish to restore fullness lost due to weight loss, pregnancy or aging, achieving a more youthful and balanced contour.
Recovery time varies depending on the specific procedure and patient, but generally, you can expect to return to light daily activities within 1 to 2 weeks. Dr. Trujillo will provide detailed instructions on post-operative care and personalized recommendations to ensure optimal recovery.
The results of a mastopexy can be long-lasting, but not permanent. Significant weight changes, future pregnancies, and the natural aging process can influence the appearance of your breasts over time. However, following Dr. Trujillo's recommendations and maintaining a healthy lifestyle can help prolong results.
All surgery involves some form of scarring, but Dr. Raúl Trujillo strives to minimize the visibility of scars using advanced surgical techniques. Scars are usually inconspicuous and continue to fade and improve in appearance over the year following surgery.
Dr. Raúl Trujillo advises caution when considering the placement of large implants during a mastopexy. It is not advisable to opt for large implants because they increase the risk of postoperative complications, such as opening wounds, fat necrosis, and necrosis of the areola and nipple. These complications can negatively affect both the aesthetic results and the patient's recovery. During the consultation, Dr. Trujillo evaluates each patient's individual characteristics, such as skin quality and breast structure, to determine the safest and most appropriate implant size. Its objective is to achieve a harmonious and natural result, minimizing the risks to the patient's health and well-being. Special emphasis is placed on the importance of maintaining realistic expectations and choosing an implant size that safely complements the patient's body structure.
