Breast Lift (Mastopexy)

Have you experienced sagging breasts because of pregnancy or changes in body weight, aging or the effects of gravity? This is a common problem for many women because the resulting changes in breast size and shape are hard to reverse naturally, as skin and supporting tissue are stretched.

At your consultation, Dr. Jaffer will personally discuss your desired breast lift outcome, and provide his own professional analysis as a plastic surgeon and artist.

Breast Lift FAQ

Who is a candidate for Breast Lift plastic surgery?

Women who have sagging breasts due to past pregnancies, genetics, or aging are most commonly interested in exploring the benefits of breast lift procedures. Other factors include excess skin and if the nipple-areolar complexes pigmented areas around nipples are enlarged.

What is Breast Lift surgery and recovery like?

The procedure is done on an outpatient basis under sedation and local anesthesia or MAC (Monitored Anesthesia Care). The design of the incisions can vary but usually include incisions around the nipple-areolar complex and in the crease under the breast. The nipple-areolar complex is repositioned higher, the excess skin is removed, and the breast is reshaped in a pleasing contour and in a more normal position.

The patient goes home in a bra with only light dressings over the incision lines. The bra is worn as a “dressing” for 2-3 weeks. Sutures are usually completely removed within 2-3 weeks. Initial discomfort is easily controlled with oral medication. Light activities may be started in 7-10 days.

Additional procedures which may enhance the result are a small Breast Reduction or Breast Augmentation.

With those variables identified, it will then be possible to estimate a firm idea of costs associated with your breast lift procedure.
