What is a Benelli Breast Lift?
A Benelli Breast is performed by removing a ring of skin around the areola or pigmented area of the nipple. The circular incision is then closed by placement of a purse string suture. Often a breast augmentation is performed at the same time. This type of breast lift is indicated for patients needing a small lift with ptosis not exceeding two centimeters. Other names for this operation are concentric and donut mastopexy.
