Breast lift in Zurich

Aesthetic breast lift for a new body image.

A breast lift in Zurich, also known as a mastopexy, is a plastic surgery procedure to lift and rejuvenate the breasts. Excess skin is removed and the surrounding tissue is tightened to lift the breast profile. This surgery improves the position of the breasts but does not change their shape, size or volume. Many patients therefore combine a breast lift with a breast augmentation or reduction to achieve the desired result.

Advantages and suitability of a breast lift

Mastopexy aims to lift the breasts, remove excess skin and bring the nipple-areolar complex into a more natural position. These measures result in a more youthful and aesthetically pleasing breast contour. Suitable candidates for a breast lift are those who are in good general health, do not smoke and have a stable weight. It is important that expectations of the result remain realistic.

Breast lift techniques in Zurich

Depending on the degree of breast sagging (ptosis), Dr. Deniel Kish selects the appropriate technique. Ptosis is divided into different degrees of severity, from glandular ptosis, in which only the breast tissue is sagging, to grade III ptosis, in which the nipples are severely drooping. The choice of technique depends on the patient's individual anatomy and goals. In cases of pronounced ptosis, the anchor method is often used, which is also used for very large or sagging breasts.

Preparation and performance of the breast lift

A detailed consultation takes place before the operation, during which Dr. Deniel Kish assesses suitability for the procedure, determines the best technique and informs the patient about the procedure and possible risks. The breast lift in Zurich itself is performed on an outpatient basis under general anesthesia. Dr. Deniel Kish makes the specified incisions, removes excess skin and reshapes the breast tissue. The operation takes around two hours, but may take longer if additional measures such as implants are required.

Recovery and aftercare

The recovery phase begins after the operation, during which the patient must wear a special bra. Swelling and bruising usually subside in the first few weeks. Dr. Deniel Kish will carry out follow-up examinations at regular intervals to monitor the healing process. After about a week, most patients can return to normal, non-strenuous activities. However, strenuous physical activity should be avoided for a few weeks to ensure optimal healing and long-term results.
