Breast Lift
A Breast Lift elevates and redefines the breasts while repositioning the nipples and areolas to a higher, more natural position. This procedure corrects sagging and improves symmetry in 2-3 hours. If enhancing or reducing volume is part of your vision, a lift can be combined with an augmentation or reduction.

A breast Lift elevates sagging breasts and repositions the nipples for a more perky appearance. It can also enhance breast symmetry and improve nipple projection, especially in cases of extreme sagging. By removing excess skin and tightening surrounding tissue, the procedure creates firmer, more shapely breasts.
Lifting the breasts can relieve skin irritation or chafing beneath the breast crease and may even result in reduced back pain and improved posture. Many clients also find that clothing and bras fit more comfortably and flattering after their procedure.
A rejuvenated breast appearance often leads to increased self-confidence and a more positive body image. Breast Lifts can also be tailored to individual preferences and beauty goals and can be performed alongside other procedures like augmentations or reductions for comprehensive results.
All procedures result in some sort of scarring, though the appearance varies by approach and personal healing. Scars typically fade over time, and proper post-operative care, like keeping incisions clean and moisturized, can aid the process. Some clients may also experience temporary or permanent changes in nipple or breast sensation, with most cases resolving naturally.
Breast Lifts may impact breastfeeding ability, so it’s important to discuss family plans with your surgeon to help guide your procedure’s approach. Post-procedure, some clients may notice asymmetry in breast shape or position. While skilled surgeons prioritize symmetry, minor follow-up procedures might be necessary.
Though rare, complications such as infection, hematoma (blood buildup), seroma (fluid buildup), tissue necrosis, or deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can occur. Monitoring for unusual swelling, discomfort, or redness, and following post-op instructions closely, can help prevent or manage these issues.
