What is Breast Lifting (Mastopexy)?

Breast lifting, also known as mastopexy, is a cosmetic surgical procedure designed to lift and reshape sagging or drooping breasts. This procedure removes excess skin, tightens the breast tissue, and repositions the areola to restore a youthful and more aesthetically pleasing breast contour. Breast lifting can be performed independently or in combination with breast augmentation (implants) to enhance volume and shape.

Why Consider Breast Lifting?

Over time, the breasts may begin to sag due to factors like aging, pregnancy, breastfeeding, weight fluctuations, or genetics. A breast lift helps rejuvenate the breast’s appearance by restoring its natural shape and firmness. It is particularly beneficial for women who have lost breast volume and fullness after pregnancy or significant weight loss, and for those who have asymmetrical or drooping breasts.

How Does Breast Lifting Procedure Work?

  1. Consultation and Planning: During your consultation, the surgeon will assess your breasts, skin elasticity, and overall health to determine the best approach for the lift. You will discuss your aesthetic goals, and the surgeon will design a customized plan for your procedure.
  2. Anesthesia: Breast lifting surgery is performed under general anesthesia to ensure you remain comfortable and pain-free throughout the procedure.
  3. Incision Placement: The surgeon makes small incisions, in the most suitable pattern.
  4. Reshaping the Breast Tissue: The surgeon removes excess skin and reshapes the underlying tissue to lift and firm the breasts. If necessary, the areola and nipple are repositioned to a more youthful position.
  5. Incision Closure: After reshaping, the surgeon closes the incisions with sutures. The result is a firmer, more youthful breast contour, with the scars generally hidden in the natural breast folds.
  6. Recovery and Aftercare: Following surgery, you will wear a surgical bra to support the breasts during healing. Swelling, bruising, and mild discomfort are normal, but these symptoms will subside within a few weeks. You’ll need to avoid strenuous activities and heavy lifting for several weeks to allow the breasts to heal properly.

Who is a Good Candidate for Breast Lifting?

Breast lifting is ideal for women who:

  • Have sagging or drooping breasts due to aging, pregnancy, or weight loss.
  • Have good overall health and are not pregnant or breastfeeding.
  • Are non-smokers (smoking can interfere with the healing process).
  • Are looking for a more youthful breast appearance and improved breast shape.

Benefits of Breast Lifting

  • Restores Youthful Shape: A breast lift provides firmer, more youthful-looking breasts.
  • Improves Symmetry: It corrects asymmetry in the breasts, creating a more balanced appearance.
  • Boosts Confidence: Many women experience a boost in self-esteem and body confidence after the procedure.
  • Long-Lasting Results: With proper care, the results of a breast lift can last for many years.

Recovery After Breast Lift

Recovery typically takes about 1-2 weeks for most patients, with significant improvement seen within the first month. You will experience some swelling, bruising, and discomfort, but these symptoms will gradually fade. It’s essential to follow your surgeon’s aftercare instructions, including wearing a supportive bra, avoiding heavy lifting, and attending follow-up appointments to monitor progress. Full recovery and final results may take a few months, and scars will fade over time.

Important information!

  • Ensure your surgeon is board-certified in plastic surgery, indicating they have the necessary training and expertise.
  • Be prepared to provide a detailed medical history, including any medications, supplements, and previous surgeries.
  • You should stop taking certain medications, such as aspirin, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), and supplements that can increase bleeding risk, several weeks before the surgery.

Before the procedure, you will have a consultation with your doctor to discuss your goals, outcomes.

After agreeing on the details, our medical staff schedule your operation day.

  • The medical staff starts by administering anesthesia to ensure the patient's comfort during the procedure.
  • Making incisions: The pattern and length of the incisions depend on the degree of lift required and the patient's anatomy. Common incisions patterns are: Around the areola (periareolar), Around the areola and vertically down to the breast crease (lollipop), Around the areola, vertically down to the breast crease, and horizontally along the breast crease (anchor).
  • The surgeon reshapes and lifts the underlying breast tissue to improve breast contour and firmness.
  • The nipple and areola are moved to a more youthful height. If necessary, the size of the areola can be reduced by excising skin at the perimeter.
  • Sagging is corrected by removing excess skin and tightening the remaining skin to support the newly shaped breasts.
  • The incisions are brought together to reshape the now uplifted breast.
  • The incisions are covered with dressings or bandages. In some cases, a tube might be temporarily placed under the skin to drain any excess blood or fluid.

After your breast lifting operation, your surgeon will provide instructions on how to care for your breasts, medications to apply or take orally to aid healing, and reduce the risk of infection: 

  • You will likely be instructed to wear a surgical support bra or a compression garment around the clock for several weeks. This helps reduce swelling and supports the new breast shape during the healing process.
  • Take prescribed pain medication or over-the-counter pain relievers as recommended by your surgeon to manage discomfort.
  • Ensure you get plenty of rest and sleep with your upper body elevated to reduce swelling.
  • Avoid strenuous activities, heavy lifting, and vigorous exercise for at least 4-6 weeks or as advised by your surgeon.
  • Keep the incision areas clean and dry. If you have drains, follow instructions for draining and measuring the fluid.
  • Avoid smoking and alcohol consumption, as it can create complications and alter the healing process.
  • Scars will improve over time but can take up to a year or more to fade significantly.
