The Benefits of a Breast Lift

Over time, factors such as aging, pregnancy, gravity, and weight fluctuation take their toll on the breasts, causing a loss of volume, sagging, and nipples that point downward. In a  breast lift procedure (mastopexy), Dr. Patronella improves the shape and firmness of the breasts and lifts them to a more youthful position on the chest. 

Houston Plastic Surgeon Dr. Chris Patronella

Dr. Patronella has been consistently selected by his physician peers as one of Houston's best plastic surgeons in polls conducted by H Texas Magazine and Health and Fitness magazine. A 2010 Goldline Reseach study published in Forbes magazine named him one of the nation's leading providers of plastic surgery. Dr. Patronella is nationally respected for his expertise in breast enhancement and body contouring procedures. Worldwide medical aesthetics leader, Allergan Medical, invited Dr. Patronella, as the only plastic surgeon in the greater Houston area, to become a charter member of the Board of Advisors for NOVO, The National Council of Leaders in Breast Aesthetics. His skill and excellent safety record in body contouring led Ethicon, Inc. to invite him to join the national board of advisors for Shaping Futures, a group which was charged with the mission to develop safety and procedural recommendations related to body contouring surgery for weight loss patients. In 2007 he developed an innovative technique to more safely combine breast augmentation and breast lift surgery in a single operation. Dr. Patronella's development of advanced techniques to improve the results and safety of aesthetic breast surgery and body contouring has led to speaking invitations to some of the most prestigious plastic surgery organizations, including the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS), the American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS), the International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, and the Texas Society of Plastic Surgeons.
