Breast Lift (Mastopexy) in Minneapolis, MN

Understanding Breast Lift Surgery

Aging, genetics, pregnancy, nursing, weight loss, and gravity can significantly impact breast appearance. Minneapolis Plastic Surgery offers advanced breast lift procedures to restore breast firmness, shape, and nipple positioning.

Ideal Candidates for Breast Lift

• Healthy women with adequate breast volume
• Desire to achieve a more youthful breast appearance
• Realistic expectations about surgical incisions and resulting scars
• Experiencing breast sagging from pregnancy, breastfeeding, or weight loss

Surgical Procedure Details

Board-certified plastic surgeons perform breast lift surgery using precise techniques. The procedure involves removing excess skin and repositioning breast tissue to create a more elevated, youthful contour. Incision patterns are carefully designed to minimize scarring while maximizing aesthetic results.

Incision Techniques

Minneapolis Plastic Surgery offers multiple incision options tailored to individual patient needs, including:

• Periareolar (donut) lift
• Vertical ("lollipop") lift
• Anchor pattern lift for more significant reshaping

Recovery and Results

Patients typically resume normal activities within days of surgery. Full recovery takes several weeks, with final results emerging as swelling subsides. Most patients experience significant improvement in breast shape and self-confidence.

Important Considerations

• Avoid nicotine for 6 weeks before and after surgery
• Minimal postoperative discomfort
• Potential for temporary nipple sensation changes

Procedure Cost

Breast lift surgery costs approximately $13,000. Combined procedures like breast lift with implants range from $14,500 to $16,500. Exact pricing is determined during personalized consultation.
