Breast Lift, also known as a mastopexy, elevates and reshapes the breast into a perkier, youthful appearance by removing excess skin and elevating the nipple and areolar complex.
A mastopexy is the perfect option for a woman with breasts that have begun to sag or deflate due to aging, weight loss, or pregnancy. Mastopexy and breast reductions use similar incisions, including the circumvertical (lollipop) or the Wise pattern (anchor) design.
Your mastopexy should elevate the position of the nipple and areola just like during a breast reduction. However, during the mastopexy, no excess breast tissue is removed, but rather includes removal of excess skin, reduce the areola size, or an auto-augmentation, where breast tissue is rearranged to enhance projection.
The mastopexy may be combined with other options to enhance projection and cleavage, (Breast Augmentation with a Lift), by placing an implant or transferring fat to the breast.
An incision around the areola is used to give to improve nipple position and provide small lift.
This approach is performed through a “lollipop” incision around the areola and into the lower breast to provide a lift and improve ptosis.
This technique is performed through an anchor-shaped incision Mastopexy with auto-augmentation: To improve shape and project of the breast, redundant breast tissue is rearranged into a position behind the nipple and areola.

How long does the recovery process take after a breast lift?: The recovery time can vary, but most patients can expect to resume normal activities within a week. Strenuous activities should be avoided for a few weeks to promote proper healing.
Will a breast lift affect breastfeeding?: While breast lift surgery typically preserves the ability to breastfeed, it’s important to discuss your specific situation with your surgeon. They can provide personalized guidance based on your anatomy and surgical plan.
