There are different types of breast lift techniques that may be used depending on the patient's unique needs, including:
Crescent Lift: This technique involves making a small incision around the upper edge of the areola to remove a small amount of tissue, and is typically used for mild sagging.
Peri-Areolar Lift: Also known as a "donut" lift, this technique involves making a circular incision around the areola, and is ideal for patients with mild to moderate sagging.
Vertical or "Lollipop" Lift: This technique involves making a circular incision around the areola and a vertical incision down to the breast crease, and is ideal for patients with moderate sagging.
Full Mastopexy: This technique involves making an anchor-shaped incision around the areola, down the breast, and along the breast crease, and is ideal for patients with severe sagging.
