Breast Lift / Mastopexy

Breast Lift is a cosmetic surgical procedure used to raise, reshape, and add fullness to sagging breasts. This procedure can also be used in combination with breast implants to enhance firmness and size. Our doctors specialize in several of the newest techniques, which leave minimal scars and ensure the quickest recovery.

Good Candidates For Breast Lift Surgery

  • Your breasts have lost their volume due to pregnancy or aging.
  • You have large areolas with little fullness on the top of your breasts.

If you are considering breast lift surgery, you should understand that there is permanent scarring involved. Results tend to last longer with smaller breasts. Breasts which are too large may sag over time due to their heaviness. You should also consider whether or not you intend to have more children. Pregnancy and nursing after the procedure may reverse the results of the procedure. With good physical and emotional health, and realistic expectations of your surgery, your new firmer breasts will rejuvenate your silhouette.

Your Breast Lift Consultation

During your initial consultation, you will meet with the plastic surgeon and staff. Your previous surgeries, your medical history, medications you are presently taking, and your overall physical and emotional health will be reviewed. Your skin quality will also be evaluated. Photographs may be taken for your medical record. Your surgeon will determine what you benefit from most and whether or not additional procedures will be necessary for you to achieve your desired results. Recovery time, risks and limitations associated with surgery will be also be discussed. The doctor's patient coordinator will review surgical costs and scheduling with you.
