Lollipop Breast Lift
The lollipop breast lift technique is a compromise between the more invasive
anchor incision
full mastopexy and the simple
periareolar
incision used during
Benelli lifts.
The lollipop mastopexy procedure is indicated for women with specific breast criteria. Make sure to research your
breast lift
options carefully, since there are many methods of achieving a higher, firmer bustline. The best results will always come from matching the patient’s requirements with the procedure which meets these needs completely, without becoming more invasive than is absolutely necessary. A lollipop lift is also commonly called a
LeJour mastopexy
or a
vertical breast lift.

Lollipop Breast Lift Comparison
The lollipop
mastopexy
is an advanced form of modified lift. While it is not as invasive as a full anchor incision lift, it is far more complicated and involved than the rest of the
modified breast lift
techniques. This procedure requires 2 separate incisions, placed around the
areola
and down the lower midline of the breast. These 2 incisions together form what appears to be a lollipop on a stick, hence the nomenclature of this surgical procedure. The lollipop technique is used specifically for medium breasted women with moderate to severe
breast sagging
or large breasted women with mild to moderate ptosis. The procedure is usually not adequate to re-sculpt
large breasts
with severe sagging. The procedure is too involved to be used on women with
smaller breasts
or less noticeable ptosis issues.
Lollipop Breast Lift Considerations
The emotional effects of
breast ptosis
can be very difficult for some women to deal with. The constant reminder of age and degenerative tissue changes can dash a woman’s body image, ruin her self confidence and make her overly conscious and sensitive about her body and appearance. These emotional concerns can make life a living hell for both the woman and her partner. The majority of all women with serious ptosis related issues would do almost anything to refresh the appearance of their
breasts,
but many do not even know that realistic surgical options exist. Those who do understand the concept of breast lift are often scared of the potential
complications
and
scarring.
While it is crucial to understand that these
risks
do exist, it is also important to realize there are many methods of reducing complications drastically.
Choosing your surgeon
and planning your procedure extremely carefully are the 2 best methods of insuring an incredible surgical result.
Lollipop Breast Lift Recommendation
The lollipop candy is a sweet treat, but not nearly as sweet as the sensational results offered to many women by this life changing procedure. The increased sense of self empowerment enjoyed by women who can overcome ptosis issues is tremendous and really helps to revitalize the spirit. There is no reason to simply accept bodily changes that are disturbing to you, when there are options to create the body you once had or always desired.
Cosmetic surgeons
perform surgery on the body, but their biggest positive influence is on the mental and emotional components of the self. If you have suffered with sagging breasts and
nipples
for long enough, talk to a qualified
plastic surgeon
to learn more about the methods which can give your breasts a proverbial bath in the fountain of youth. Share your own breast improvement story at our Breast Plastic Surgery Interactive Forum
