A breast lift (mastopexy) raises and reshapes a sagging breast and repositions the nipple. Dr Thomas Colson uses all three scar patterns matched to the degree of sagging, and performs lift-plus-implant (augmentation-mastopexy) in a single stage when volume is also needed.
A breast lift (mastopexy) raises and reshapes a breast that has descended, repositioning the nipple and tightening the skin envelope — without necessarily changing volume. Dr Colson uses all three scar patterns, matched to the degree of ptosis: periareolar, vertical (lollipop) and inverted-T.
The principle is simple: the more the breast has dropped, the more lifting — and therefore scar — is required. The right pattern for your case is decided together during the examination and a Crisalix 3D simulation.
When both position and volume need restoring, Dr Colson performs augmentation-mastopexy in a single stage — lift and implant together — to avoid a second operation.
In line with UAE Department of Health guidelines on modesty and medical advertising, breast surgical results are not published online. Outcomes relevant to your own anatomy are reviewed privately during your consultation, alongside a Crisalix 3D simulation of your planned result.
Consultations and surgery with Dr Thomas Colson are performed exclusively at Sheikh Khalifa Medical City (SKMC) in Abu Dhabi, within the SEHA network. A pre-operative Crisalix 3D simulation lets patients preview the planned breast shape before deciding.
