Breast Lift

Anatomy-Led Breast Reshaping for Position and Balance

What is a Breast Lift?

A breast lift, or mastopexy, restores breast position, contour, and firmness by correcting tissue descent and reshaping the underlying structure.

Over time, skin stretches and breast tissue settles due to aging, pregnancy, weight changes, and genetics. A lift raises the breast, repositions the nipple to a more natural height, and reshapes tissue to improve contour and projection.

Some patients benefit from a lift alone, while others combine it with augmentation or reduction depending on anatomy and tissue quality.

Frequently asked questions

A breast lift is appropriate for patients with sagging, loss of shape, or downward-pointing nipples. This commonly occurs after pregnancy, weight loss, or aging. Candidacy is based on the degree of ptosis and overall tissue quality, and whether volume loss is also present.
A breast lift does involve permanent scars, which vary depending on the technique required. Incisions are strategically placed and typically soften over time, but do not disappear. Scar quality depends on both surgical technique and individual healing.
Yes. A lift can be combined with augmentation using implants or fat transfer. This approach addresses both position and volume, restoring structural support while improving fullness. The combination is tailored to your anatomy and goals.
A breast lift creates a long-lasting structural improvement, but it does not stop aging. Over time, factors such as gravity, skin elasticity, weight changes, and pregnancy can affect shape. The goal is a durable repositioning that maintains a more elevated contour for many years.
Temporary changes in sensation are relatively common during healing. Most patients experience gradual return of sensation as swelling resolves, although some variability can occur. Permanent changes are less common and depend on surgical and anatomical factors.
Cost varies based on anatomy, surgical complexity, and whether additional procedures are performed. A personalized plan is developed during consultation, and exact pricing is reviewed afterward with the surgical coordinator.
