What is Breast Lift?
Perfection of resilience breast line, Breast Lift
The breast is sagged as the skin is stretched and resilience is lowered due to reduced breast tissues and fat.
The Breast Lift is a surgery that corrects the breast shape and position of nipples by identifying the size and extent of sagginess of the breast. A resilient, natural, and beautiful breast line is created by raising the sagged breast up and adding volume to the breast.

Self-Diagnosis of Sagged Breast
Degree of Sagging Breast
Grade B If the nipple falls lower than 1~3cm than the breast and the wrinkle but above the bottom of the breast tissue
Grade C If the nipple is lower than the breast and wrinkle by more than 3cm and direction of the nipple faces completely downwards
If the sagged breast is not properly corrected before surgery and augmentation surgery is performed, the upper breast may become convex or create double wrinkles which can be unnatural. Therefore, it is important to consult with a skilled specialist first and then receive the most appropriate surgery for each individual.

Precautions after surgery
- A light shower can be done after 48 hours of operation. (It is not good if you are immersed in the water or in a hot environment.)
- Depending on individual differences, it can cause swelling and bruising. Do not bend your head or bow when sleeping; use 2~3 pillows to make 20~30 degree upper body. This will help prevent swelling and pain.
- During the first week after operation, the arm should not be raised over 90 degrees and it is best to lift heavy objects or to act on your arms.
- From 2 weeks after surgery, light exercise like jogging is possible.
- Drinking and smoking after surgery can slow down the healing and should be avoided for 3~4weeks. Be careful of strong trauma during recovery.
Ruby's Point
Correct implant size to fit the body; insertion position; etc. must be calculated accurately to create natural and beautiful breast.
Ruby Plastic Surgery carries out customized breast surgery that is perfect for patients with surgical know-how from many surgical cases.
Types of Breast Implant
Patients can choose which implant to use for higher satisfaction.
Upper breast volume UP!
Overall volume OK!
Ideal convex breast line
Recommended for flat and sagged breast
Insertion of Breast Implant by area
Breast is located between the skin and the chest muscle (pectoralis), implants are usually inserted beneath or over the chest muscles, or below the mammary tissue.
It is suitable for those who have chest volume already with a lot of chest tissues. If you have dense breast with little fat; it is prone to capsular contracture and will be unnatural looking.
Collection with volume when breast cleavage is open
Insufficient volume on breast
Effective in making small breast enlargement and suitable for those who have less skin and breast tissue.
Reduced nerve damage during surgery
Almost invisible implant line as it is inserted under the muscle.
As implant is not near the mammary gland, it should not interfere with breast cancer screening.
Can create more natural look and texture
As implant is fixed between the fascia and chest muscle, there is less chances of implant shape change
Incision by area
Underarm
About 3.5cm incision will be made along the wrinkle line.
Ruby uses high-tech endoscope to reduce the possibilities of bleeding and improve accuracy.
Advantages
- Reduced damage to important nerves and tissues
- Invisible scarring with the usage of endoscope during surgery
- Faster recovery with reduced pain level and swelling
- No worries for capsular contracture
- No worries for asymmetry due to accurate separation
Areola
A method where the incision will be made around 3cm at the edges of the areola.
There is little scarring but occasionally there is a possibility of a slight decline in the sensation of the nipple.
Advantages
- Scarring is almost invisible.
- Pain level is reduced as it is close to the insertion position.
- Scar heals quickly as skin is thin
- Incision site allows for sophisticated operation with easy access to the breast
- Arms can be moved around freely
Underline
A method where the incision is made at the fold underneath the breast to insert the implant and it is advantageous for operations which requires a complicated reoperation or correction. Scars can be seen a little when lying down and it is a useful method when the fold line is strong or want to enlarge the breast bigger.
Advantages
- Suitable for any breast shape
- Easy accessibility as it enables wide field of view
- Somewhat advantageous when operating with teardrop implant
