Case #159

This patient underwent a breast lift performed by board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Francesco Campanile, one of Colorado’s leading experts in cosmetic breast and body contouring. She initially came to Dr. Campanile because she was unhappy with the drooping and lack of perkiness in her breasts—a common concern for women as they age or after pregnancy and breastfeeding.

After evaluating her anatomy and goals, Dr. Campanile, a surgeon with 25+ years of focused experience, recommended a breast lift to restore a more youthful, elevated breast shape. Candidacy for breast lift surgery is often determined using the well-known “pencil test.” If a pencil placed under the breast crease sits higher than the nipple position, the patient is typically a strong candidate for a breast lift to correct sagging and reposition the nipple-areola complex.

During surgery, Dr. Campanile raised the nipple and reshaped the surrounding breast tissue, anchoring them in a higher, more youthful location on the breast mound. He typically performs the “lollipop” (vertical) lift technique, which creates excellent reshaping with minimal scarring around the areola and a short vertical scar beneath the breast.

Shown here approximately 3 months after surgery, this patient now has a lifted, firmer, and more youthful breast contour. She is very happy with her results and feels significantly more confident in her appearance.

Patients searching for a breast lift in Denver or throughout Colorado consistently choose Dr. Francesco Campanile for his advanced surgical skill, attention to detail, and reputation for producing natural, elegant, and long-lasting results.
