What is a Breast Lift?
A breast lift, or mastopexy, is a surgical procedure that raises and reshapes sagging breasts by removing excess skin and tightening the surrounding tissue. This restores a more youthful, uplifted breast contour, addressing changes caused by pregnancy, breastfeeding, weight fluctuations, or natural aging. The goal is to create a natural-looking result that enhances your body confidence.
Types of Breast Lift Techniques
Periareolar (Donut) Lift
Best for mild sagging. Key features:
- Incision: Around the areola only
- Lift: Minimal repositioning of nipple and breast tissue
- Scarring: Least visible, hidden at areola border
- Ideal for: Minor ptosis (sagging) and small size adjustments
Vertical (Lollipop) Lift
Most common technique for moderate sagging. Key features:
- Incision: Around areola and vertically down to breast crease
- Lift: Moderate reshaping and repositioning
- Scarring: Well-concealed by clothing and swimwear
- Ideal for: Moderate sagging with good breast volume
Anchor (Inverted-T) Lift
For severe sagging and significant reshaping. Key features:
- Incision: Around areola, vertically down, and along breast crease
- Lift: Maximum repositioning and skin removal
- Scarring: More extensive but hidden by bras and swimwear
- Ideal for: Severe ptosis and large breasts requiring substantial lift
