Breast Lift Procedure
A breast lift procedure is a cosmetic treatment developed to reshape and lift sagging breasts. Most women like their breasts to feel or maintain a natural, however, with age, pregnancy, the birth of a child, or weight variation, the breasts lose their shape and begin to sag. Therefore, this procedure can be the solution to enhance your physical appearance and boost your confidence and self-esteem.
What is a Breast Lift?
A breast lift procedure, also known as Mastopexy, addresses lax and uneven breasts, decreased breast volume, and drooping nipples, and stretched areolas (the dark area surrounding the nipples), recreating a youthful shape and lift to your breasts. If breast volume is too small or large, augmentation or reduction may be recommended along with a lift. Each year, countless women successfully undergo the surgery, experience minimal complications, and are ultimately delighted with the results.
When to Consider a Breast Lift?
Pregnancy, nursing, gravity, weight gain or loss, normal aging, and heredity have taken a toll on the shape of your breasts, resulting in sagging.
If your surgeon thinks that breast implants alone are unlikely to achieve the contour you desire.
If the tissue surrounding the nipple or areola has become stretched.
How is the Procedure Performed?
A breast lift is performed under general anesthesia or intravenous sedation in an Accredited Hospital or surgeon’s office equipped with a surgical suite. Different techniques for removing breast skin and reshaping the breast determine the location of the incisions and resulting scars. Your surgeon will select a technique based on your breast size and shape, areola size and position, degree of breast lax, skin quality, and elasticity, and how much extra skin you have. Following are the steps for the procedure:
- Your plastic surgeon will remove excess breast skin and shift the nipple and areola to a higher position.
- If your areola has become stretched, it can now be reduced in size.
- Skin that was formerly located above the areola is brought down and together, beneath the breast, to reshape the breast.
- Your Surgeon will remove excess skin and close your incisions, tightening the skin, sewing the breast back together, and placing sutures deep in the breast tissue to support the new breast position for a longer period.
- Scars are usually hidden under the breasts, although some light scarring may be seen on top of the breast.
- The nipples and areolas remain attached to underlying mounds of tissue, and this usually allows for the preservation of sensation and the ability to breastfeed.
- In some patients, it may be possible to avoid the horizontal incision beneath the breast as well as the vertical incision that runs from the bottom edge of the areola to the breast crease. If you are a good candidate for a modified technique, your plastic surgeon will discuss this with you.

Am I a Good Candidate for the Surgery?
If you’ve become increasingly unhappy about the sagging of your breasts, you may wonder what surgery can do. Surgeons often recommend combining breast lifts with augmentation or reduction to achieve desired results. Additional procedures may be necessary for optimal outcomes.
Reasons when to consider a breast lift:
- 1. Breasts that are pendulous but adequate in size.
- 2. Breasts that lack substance or firmness.
- 3. Nipples and areolas that point downward, especially if they are positioned below the breast crease.
- 4. Breasts that appear different from each other; one breast may appear firm and well-positioned while the other does not.
- 5. Breasts that are not equal in size.
- 6. Relatively small breasts.
- 7. Breasts that are large and heavy can be lifted, but the results may not be as long-lasting as a breast lift performed on smaller breasts; the weight of larger breasts works against surgical changes.
Firstly, consider your family planning status before pursuing cosmetic breast surgery. Moreover, if you intend to have children in the future, it’s advisable to delay such procedures. This is because pregnancy can significantly alter breast appearance. Specifically, it may cause stretching and volume loss. Consequently, these changes could potentially undermine the benefits of your previous surgery.
You are finished with childbearing and breast-feeding. If you plan to have children, you may want to postpone cosmetic breast surgery. Pregnancy may stretch the breasts and reduce their volume, compromising surgery benefits.
