A breast lift is a surgical procedure called a mastopexy. It is a combination of procedures to lift the breasts higher on the chest wall and reposition the nipple so it is in a natural, youthful position at the front of the breast.
The type of procedure is based on the patient. The incision placement will be based on the degree of sagging that has occurred. The incisions are often placed around the nipple area, but in some cases of extreme sagging, there may be an incision from the center of the nipple to the bottom of the breast.
As with any invasive procedure, you can expect some swelling. Sleeping on extra pillows or a foam wedge will help limit swelling. Drink lots of water and avoid salty foods during healing. If you carefully follow all of our post-op procedures, you should heal quickly without much concern about excessive swelling.
While the results are long-lasting, over time, you may experience a greater amount of skin laxity. Caring for your skin correctly helps keep it firm and healthy. Typically, the results last many years before another procedure is needed, if at all.
The procedure is geared to produce symmetrical, round, plump (and natural-looking) breasts. Some slight variations in the structure of the chest wall, ribs, or spine may create minor imperfections in matched breasts.

Yes, although it is recommended to wait to have breast surgery until you are done having children because of the impact of pregnancy and breastfeeding on the shape and characteristics of the breast. If the nipple structure is left intact, breastfeeding is possible, but other variables may occur during the procedure that could affect breastfeeding.
