Understanding Breast Lift Surgery

A breast lift, or mastopexy, is a surgical procedure designed to restore and reshape sagging breasts. Over time, factors like pregnancy, nursing, and gravity can cause breast tissue to lose elasticity and firmness, resulting in a drooping appearance.

Procedure Overview

Surgical duration: 2-3 hours
Anesthesia: General anesthesia
Recovery: 1-2 weeks return to work, 4-6 weeks for strenuous activity

Ideal Candidates for Breast Lift

The best candidates for mastopexy are healthy, emotionally stable women with realistic expectations. Ideal patients typically have:

Small to moderate sagging breasts
Stable body weight
Good overall health
Non-smokers

Surgical Technique

During a breast lift, surgeons remove excess skin and reshape breast tissue to create a more youthful, lifted contour. Incisions are strategically placed to minimize visible scarring, typically around the areola and potentially extending to the breast crease.

Potential Combination Procedures

For patients seeking additional volume, breast lift can be combined with breast augmentation using implants. This comprehensive approach can enhance both breast shape and size.

Recovery and Results

Patients can expect some initial swelling and discomfort, which gradually subsides. A surgical bra will be worn for several weeks to support healing. While results are long-lasting, natural aging and lifestyle factors can impact breast appearance over time.
