Ptosis: Understanding the Different Grades of Severity
Evaluation of Breast Ptosis

Grade 1: Mild Ptosis
At the first grade, the tissue laxity is minimal, with the nipples located at the level of the lower breast fold.
Grade 2: Moderate Ptosis
At this stage, the tissue laxity is more pronounced, with the nipples located lower than the inframammary fold.
Grade 3: Severe Ptosis
The ptosis is very pronounced, with significant laxity of the breast tissue. The nipples are located well below the inframammary fold, sometimes accompanied by asymmetric volume that can cause discomfort and back pain.
Glandular Ptosis
For this type of ptosis, the nipple is often in the correct position. However, the glandular tissue descends below the breast fold. In some cases, breast augmentation is sufficient, but a breast lift may be necessary to achieve an optimal result.

Types of Incisions
Periareolar and vertical incision
J” or inverted ‘T’ incision
The “J” and “inverted T” incisions are two techniques commonly used for breast reduction or correcting shape or volume asymmetry. The incisions may vary if significant asymmetry is present before surgery to achieve the best result. Both involve an incision around the areola, extended by a vertical line down to the inframammary fold, providing effective access to the breast tissue to reduce breast volume.
The main difference lies in the additional horizontal incision at the inframammary fold for the inverted T technique, which is often preferred for patients requiring more skin tightening and is frequently combined with volume reduction.
Duration of the procedure
The surgery
The duration of your surgery may vary depending on whether additional procedures are combined with your breast lift. For a breast lift alone, the procedure typically lasts between 1.5 to 2 hours. When the lift is combined with augmentation using a “J” incision, the procedure generally lasts about 2.5 hours.
At Clinimedspa, each surgery is carefully planned to ensure optimal aesthetic results that meet your expectations.

Recovery
Follow the post-operative recommendations carefully to promote optimal recovery.
Depending on the nature of your job, plan for a rest period ranging from 4 days to 2 weeks before resuming your usual professional activities. It is recommended to stay active and well-hydrated within the first 24 hours after the surgery.
Avoid any pressure on the chest to reduce pain and the risk of complications, and prioritize sleeping on your back for 5 to 7 days to accelerate the healing process.
For several weeks, wearing the bra provided during the surgery is essential. Designed for optimal comfort, this bra is seamless and fastens at the front, making your recovery easier.
