Breast Lift FAQ's

How does a breast lift differ from a breast augmentation?

Breast lift and breast augmentation are two common plastic surgery procedures to enhance the appearance of your breasts. Breast augmentation involves the placement of implants beneath the breast tissue or muscles. The procedure is designed to increase the actual size and volume of your breasts to create a more appealing figure.

Why do breasts sag and droop?

Age, gravity, and pregnancy can cause breast tissue to break down over time. This deterioration can create saggy or droopy breasts. A breast lift is a cosmetic plastic surgery procedure that is used to lift and tighten the breast tissue to create a more youthful and appealing contour and shape.

What are the different methods of a breast lift?

Depending the conditions of your breasts, there are different breast lift techniques each differing in the amount of tissue removed as well as the location and number of incisions.

A traditional breast lift is ideal for women who have severely droopy breasts. This technique uses three incisions and enables the removal of larger amounts of skin and tissue.
A vertical breast lift uses only two incisions and is appropriate for a moderate amount of sagging.
A circumareolar breast lift only uses one incision around the nipple border. This technique produces a subtle result and is used for women that have a minor degree of sagging.

What is the cost range of a breast lift?

A mastopexy can range in price. You can expect a breast lift to cost between $4,000 and $5,000, but as it is a customized surgery, the prices can vary. When considering a breast lift procedure, it is important that you are given all the facts regarding the associated costs of the procedure, including anesthesia, operating room facilities, or other expenses.
