Surgical breast lift at PANTEA® in Munich
Many women value a well-formed breast and a harmonious body image. External influences such as the natural ageing process, weight fluctuations or pregnancy and breastfeeding often lead to a loss of volume and thus to sagging breasts. In addition to aesthetic concerns, this often leads to considerable psychological distress. A breast lift can provide relief here.
As part of a breast lift operation, the skin covering of the breast can be reshaped, if necessary in combination with an implant or an autologous fat transplant, using a special incision and preserving all the fat and glandular tissue so that the breast is restored to the desired position and shape.
We will be happy to explain the various surgical techniques for breast lift surgery to you in a personal consultation.

Why can a breast lift improve your quality of life?
Many women attach great importance to a harmonious body image and develop emotional suffering if their breasts appear saggy and are therefore perceived as unaesthetic.
A surgical breast lift can reshape the skin of the breast through a special incision while preserving all of the fatty and glandular tissue, resulting in a breast that is perceived as aesthetically pleasing and significantly improving quality of life and self-esteem.
Treatment procedure for a breast lift at PANTEA® in Munich
Medical treatment comprises several steps: from diagnosis through to completion of treatment.
1.
The first step is a joint consultation. The doctors at PANTEA® take enough time for you and clarify all your questions. Photo documentation and a physical examination are also carried out.
2.
Depending on the findings, we will work with you to determine an individual treatment plan and discuss all the options for optimally implementing your desired treatment.
3.
Together with our patients, we decide on the most suitable surgical method for the breast lift during the consultation.
4.
The day before the operation you should drink enough fluids and get enough sleep so that you can have the operation in a healthy and rested state.
5.
On the day of the breast lift operation, you should arrive at the clinic on an empty stomach, i.e. you should not eat anything for at least 6 hours before the operation and not drink anything for at least 2 hours before the operation.
6.
After the operation, our patients receive a "post-op kit". This contains useful aids, as well as hints and tips for optimal behavior during the healing phase and afterwards, as well as high-quality nutritional supplements and nutriceuticals to support the healing phase and the sustainable transition to a healthy and balanced diet.
Of course, we are always available to answer our patients' questions after the operation.
7.
We recommend that you take approx. 1 week off after the operation. Aftercare includes wearing a compression bra day and night for approx. 6 weeks. After 4 to 6 weeks you may resume light sports activities.
8.
Follow-up appointments are made after the operation in consultation with the surgeon, depending on the healing process. In addition, follow-up appointments can of course be arranged at any time in the event of uncertainties or questions after the operation.
9.
We take a holistic approach at PANTEA® and are therefore not only there for you before and during the operation, but are of course also at your side after a breast lift.

Please stop smoking for at least 3 weeks after the operation.

Questions about breast lift surgery
In principle, a breast reduction can be performed on adult women aged 18 and over. A breast lift is suitable for patients who are satisfied with the size of their breasts but would like to change their shape and texture. Possible causes are often a severely sagging skin mantle, e.g. after radical weight loss or after major fluctuations in volume due to pregnancy and breastfeeding.
In our experience, a breast lift is a very satisfying step for many patients, bringing back a great deal of quality of life. A breast lift also often has decisive advantages for the neck and back as well as general posture. Heavy sweating under the breasts and dermatological problems are usually no longer an issue after the procedure. After the procedure, the previously sagging breasts regain a beautiful and firm shape, resulting in a significant improvement in self-esteem and self-confidence.
It should be noted that you should have reached a stable desired weight before a breast lift. You should also have been breastfeeding for at least six months before a breast lift.
In a surgical breast lift (mastopexy), the skin covering of the breast can be reshaped using a special incision while preserving all of the fatty and glandular tissue so that the nipple and breast can be restored to the desired position and shape. Smaller breast lifts can also be performed on an outpatient basis under local anesthesia.
During a breast lift, excess skin is removed and the mammary gland tissue is lifted. Depending on the findings and anatomy of the breast, various surgical techniques are used, all of which aim to create a well-formed, firm and youthful-looking breast, the size of which fits the patient's individual physique and personal expectations very well.
Depending on the findings, the incision and thus the extent of visible scars varies. A so-called "T-incision" is usually necessary. This results in a scar in the area of the underbust crease (later only slightly visible to a limited extent) as well as around the nipple and vertically below it (slightly visible). The advantage of this technique is that, with the help of your own tissue, your body's own inner cushion can be formed through special reshaping, which supports, shapes and stabilizes the breast in the long term as an "inner bra".
When performing a breast lift, our ultimate goal is not only to create a beautiful and firmer breast, but also to minimize scarring by using the latest techniques.
The breast is still subject to the natural ageing process and can become slightly saggy or lose volume as a result. Major weight fluctuations should also be avoided in order to maintain the result for as long as possible. Once the breasts have been given new firmness and elasticity as part of a breast lift, you can expect the results to last for a long time (usually at least 10 years).
As a rule, the ability to breastfeed can be maintained. However, there is a risk of an impairment of the ability to breastfeed or a reduction in milk production.
Yes, as part of a breast lift (mastopexy), the breasts can be enlarged with implants or autologous fat as well as surgically reduced in size. It is also possible to correct differences in the shape and size of the breasts as well as malformations as part of the procedure.
As part of breast surgery, it is of course possible to correct and adjust differences in the size and shape of the breasts as well as developmental malformations.
What patients say about us:
Now, after a total of 4 months post-operative tummy tuck, the wonderful result is becoming apparent. Another very open consultation and recommendation. Both Dr. Wetzel and Dr. Dozan operate very carefully and focus on healthy wound healing.
Especially on the abdomen with a scar of more than 30 cm should not be underestimated. Competitors who perform liposuction at the same time as a tummy tuck can take a leaf out of their book here. Step by step is definitely the better choice.
Around 4 months after the operation there is no discomfort, the scar heals inconspicuously and thanks to the recommendation for scar care it is also soft, without hardening scar tissue.
In short: A clear recommendation for Drs. Wetzel and Dozan! Tummy tucks are not so common, especially in men, but the correction of the mons pubis was far better than the preliminary consultation had suggested!!!
Personally, it was important to me to go to a woman with this topic because I feel more comfortable personally.
Since I do not correspond to the ideal measurements of a woman but am a little curvier, I was worried that my concerns would not be taken seriously and that I might even be advised against it. But Dr. Wetzel immediately allayed my concerns and gave me the feeling that as a curvy woman I could have aesthetic procedures just as easily.
With her empathetic, honest and humane manner, she made me feel very comfortable from the very first minute and I felt understood and taken seriously right from the start. She is an incredibly competent, professional and at the same time very friendly doctor.
As I was too insecure in the first step, I only decided to have a breast lift in April 23.
Afterwards, however, my breasts had too little fullness and I had a breast augmentation with implants in December 23.
I also received excellent and competent advice on the size and manufacturer of the implants, with 2 to 3 sample photos that I brought with me of what I wanted my breasts to look like.
She took enough time at each appointment to explain everything to me clearly and in detail. And after 4 weeks I am now completely satisfied and happy with the result.
Everything went very well, from the information, to the planning of the operations, to the aftercare.
I have always found Dr. Wetzel to be very friendly, calm, emphatic and human. She radiates such calm that I felt very comfortable and in good hands with her. With Dr. Wetzel, everything just fits.
The entire practice team should not be forgotten here either. The team was always easy to reach or called back quickly. Everyone was always friendly and helpful, no matter what concerns I had.
I was looked after very lovingly and professionally both in the practice and in the Iatros Clinic.
I can really recommend Dr. Wetzel and the Pantea practice to anyone with a clear conscience.
I am incredibly grateful to Dr. Wetzel and the Pantea team!
The result is as I had hoped and the pre- and post-operative care is really great. I could and can ask all my questions.
I have 2 more liposuctions coming up and then finally an arm lift because my upper arms are now quite empty.
I can really only recommend the practice....😘😊❤️
But the clinic where the operation is performed is also totally pleasant - within the scope of the possibilities after such an operation. I still felt that I was in good hands here too...:-)
M. KB
I have been suffering from stage 2 lipoedema for 10 years. The discovery of this disease came about in an unexpected and enlightening way. Here is my story:
In my youth and during my pregnancies, I noticed that my body was changing, which is normal in itself. But my legs looked different from my friends' - they were stronger and had unusual stability. I didn't think anything of it at first, but over time the changes became more and more obvious.
The real problems started during the menopause. My legs changed dramatically, accompanied by severe pain that stretched from my ankles to my knees. By this time, my leg no longer had a natural shape. I tried everything to relieve the pain and find out what was wrong with my legs. I consulted various doctors and specialists, but no one could give me a clear diagnosis. In the evenings, I massaged my legs with a hedgehog ball in the hope that it would relieve the pain.
It wasn't until May of this year, when my daughter suggested I visit the Pantea Clinic in Munich on the recommendation of a colleague, that I found a ray of hope. I had no great expectations when I went to the clinic, but was rather hopeless.
At the clinic, I was looked after by Dr. Simone Hermanns, a young and empathetic doctor who spoke to me at eye level. She asked me numerous questions and carried out a thorough examination. Finally, she made the decisive diagnosis: I have stage 2 lipoedema. It was a shock for me, because at that time I had hardly any knowledge about this condition. However, Dr. Hermanns patiently explained everything I needed to know in detail.
The good news was that although lipoedema cannot be cured, there are ways to significantly improve quality of life. Specially made compression garments and pants can help you live pain-free. However, permanent improvement requires an operation to remove the diseased fatty tissue. Dr. Hermanns also explained to me how the diseased fat affects circulation and stability in the knees and joints. These explanations helped me to better understand the causes of my pain and discomfort.
I immediately decided to have the operation. At 59, I couldn't and didn't want to wait any longer. On June 22, the first operation was performed on the front of my legs. Seven liters of diseased fat were removed. I noticed a significant improvement soon after the operation. The pain on the front of my legs had disappeared.
On October 5, the second operation was performed on the back of my legs. The results were promising and I am sure they will be just as positive as the first operation. My mobility has already improved significantly and the pain is history. I no longer have to hide from others and no longer feel guilty about my legs.
I would like to thank Dr. Simone Hermanns from the bottom of my heart. Her expert advice, support and perfect operations have made a lasting improvement to my life. Although I was in a state of shock at the beginning, I was able to trust her and she guided me compassionately and expertly. I can move better, am no longer in pain and can finally go through life with confidence.
which I was relieved of during the preliminary consultation and also during the treatment by the doctor Mrs. Ehrl.
I was given type and professional advice!
What can I say?
I will repeat the treatment at any time.
Looks really great and natural!
Absolutely recommendable!
Many thanks to Mrs. Ehrl! 🙂
I can wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Lipp and the Pantea practice.
You get an all-round feel-good package.
The whole practice team is friendly and always available to answer any questions.
My surgery results exceeded my expectations.
I already feel very comfortable in my body, I'm fitter, pain-free and the circumference has reduced dramatically.
I'm looking forward to my recovery year and I'm excited to see what else is possible with sport.
My quality of life has improved by 100%.
Dr. Lipp + team thank you very much for the great care and the fantastic result.
The almost 3 hour drive there and back was always worth it to me, from the first consultation to the post-op care.
The new practice is also very classy and chic again, but you never have the feeling of being "looked down upon", as if you were in a "Schicki Micki clinic", but always a warm cooperation at eye level from all sides.♥️
(Also, of course, a big thank you to Dr. Hermanns and the team)
In the summer of 2022 I went to the consultation for the first time because of my lipoedema. The holistic treatment approach and the initial examination/consultation with Dr. Hermanns convinced me that PANTEA would be the right practice for me.
In April 2023 I had the last of 3 liposuctions. Dr. Hermanns has always accompanied me fully on my journey before, during and after. With her emphatic, respectful and honest manner, she is the ideal doctor for me and I am incredibly grateful to her for everything.
Dr. Hermanns has operated with both Dr. Mirko Dozan (2x) and Dr. Lipp (1x) and I can't think of any better doctors/surgeons. Everyone is very empathetic and the surgical result is more than I would have expected 🙂
Many thanks to Dr Lipp and Ms Ehrl
It is such a relief to finally be taken seriously as a lipoedema patient. After 2 operations, not only has my body and the associated pain changed, but my whole lifestyle has suddenly become healthier and more active. And I owe it all to Dr. Lipp and her entire team.
Dr. Lipp and Dr. Hermanns are my live savers, thanks to them I no longer have any pain and finally have slim legs. I was able to come to them with all my questions and always felt understood and seen. Simply great people with a big portion of professionalism, I am so happy because I can continue to work with them professionally. ❤️ A huge thank you for the new attitude to life ❤️
Due to her research, she is very familiar with the conditions of this disease.
I have been operated on twice by Dr. Lipp so far. Her colleagues and the practice team are also very nice.
Dr. Hermanns has also been able to give me lots of helpful tips.
I am very happy to have gone down this path with Dr. Lipp. And I hope she can help many more patients to lead a pain-free life.
