The BeauCare quality
A breast lift, or mastopexy, is a specialized aesthetic surgical procedure aimed at lifting and firming breasts that have lost their natural shape and firmness. This condition often arises due to factors such as pregnancy, aging, or significant weight changes.
During a mastopexy, the surgeon employs precise techniques to elevate the breasts. This often involves making an incision around the areola to excise excess skin and reposition the nipple to a higher, more youthful location.
Additionally, a breast lift can be combined with procedures like nipple correction or areola reduction for enhanced aesthetic outcomes. It is essential for patients to follow post-operative care instructions to ensure optimal healing and minimize any risks.
The resulting scars from the procedure are generally minimal, nipple sensation is usually preserved, and the ability to breastfeed is typically maintained.
Mastopexy, also known as a breast lift, refers to the same surgical procedure.
Mastopexy or breast lift?
Mastopexy, also known as a breast lift, refers to the same surgical procedure designed to elevate and firm breasts that have lost their natural shape and firmness.
The primary objective of this procedure is to restore the breasts to their natural position and shape.
During a mastopexy, the surgeon removes excess skin and tightens the surrounding tissues to achieve a lifted appearance. In the preliminary consultation, it is essential to discuss with the patient the desired height of the breast elevation, ensuring that the nipples are accurately repositioned for optimal results.
Possible results of a breast lift
In addition to lifting the breasts, a mastopexy enhances:
- Symmetry: to achieve a better match in size and shape between the two breasts;
- Roundness: to improve the fullness of the breast, especially in the upper part;
- Projection: to increase the distance at which the breast extends from the chest.
A breast lift is often an effective way to restore firmness and harmony to the breasts. To ensure the most satisfactory results, it is crucial to determine the size and shape of the new breasts in consultation with the surgeon.
It is important to note that the final shape of the breasts after mastopexy can vary depending on several factors, including the patient’s individual anatomy, the surgical technique used, and the post-operative healing process.
Breast reduction and lift
Unlike a standalone breast reduction, which primarily focuses on decreasing the size and volume of the breasts, combining it with a mastopexy also addresses sagging, enhances the overall contour, and repositions the nipples and areolas for a more youthful and lifted appearance.
Opting for this combination of procedures allows patients to not only alleviate the physical discomfort caused by oversized breasts but also achieve a harmonious and balanced figure.
Breast hypertrophy
When breasts become excessively heavy or large, they can cause back and shoulder pain, as well as posture issues. Additionally, this excessive volume can lead to discomfort and self-consciousness, drawing unwanted attention to the breasts.
Combining breast reduction with a breast lift offers exceptional results, not only reducing the size of the breasts but also reshaping them for a harmonious and aesthetically pleasing outcome.

Breast lift with breast implants
During a breast lift, the use of a breast prosthesis may be recommended to enhance the results. This approach can help:
- Maintain the new breast position and prevent further sagging
- Balance the size and shape of both breasts, ensuring harmonious symmetry
- Increase volume, giving the breasts a fuller and more youthful appearance
It is essential to discuss your goals and expectations with your plastic surgeon before making a decision to ensure the best possible outcome.
Why add a prosthesis when you want a breast reduction?
When a patient is considering a significant breast reduction, the breasts may exhibit sagging (ptosis) or a loss of firmness. In such cases, a breast reduction alone may not be sufficient to address the issue effectively.
Why have a facelift for breast augmentation?
The addition of breast prostheses can enhance volume but will not address breast sagging. Therefore, it is often recommended to combine breast augmentation with mastopexy.
Breast augmentation increases volume, while mastopexy lifts and reshapes the breasts. This combined approach yields more comprehensive and harmonious results.

Correcting the appearance and position of the nipples during breast lift surgery
Genetic factors or breastfeeding can lead to prominent or excessively long nipples, which can be corrected through nipple surgery.
In certain instances, the procedure may involve cutting part of the milk ducts, potentially affecting breastfeeding ability. If maintaining the ability to breastfeed is important to you, it’s crucial to discuss this with your plastic surgeon. They can provide insights into alternative techniques that may help reduce nipple size while preserving milk ducts.
Reposition the nipples
The placement of the nipples is crucial for the aesthetic balance of the breasts. Nipples positioned too low can give the impression of sagging and aging breasts.
By repositioning them higher and more centrally on the chest, the surgeon can create a rejuvenated and dynamic appearance. Raising the nipples to a more elevated and central position not only restores youthful contours but also enhances overall breast harmony.
This correction is instrumental in improving the patient’s silhouette and can have a positive impact on their self-confidence and self-esteem.
Retracted nipples? Are the areolas too large?
In addition to repositioning the nipples, a breast lift procedure can address inverted nipples or oversized areolas.
Inverted nipples, which are recessed inward, can be corrected to protrude naturally for improved symmetry and appearance. Similarly, oversized areolas can be reduced during mastopexy to achieve a more balanced and proportionate aesthetic with the size and shape of the breasts.
This comprehensive approach ensures both functional and cosmetic enhancements during breast surgery.
Patients undergoing breast lift surgery frequently express enhanced self-esteem and heightened satisfaction in their everyday lives, particularly in their clothing choices.
Patient satisfaction after a breast lift
Beyond the aesthetic improvements, mastopexy can alleviate physical discomforts associated with sagging breasts, such as backaches and skin irritation beneath the breasts. This enhancement in quality of life is especially pronounced for women who have endured these symptoms over an extended period.
The importance of advice from our surgeons
