Breast lift, also known as mastopexy, is a surgical procedure aimed at lifting and firming sagging breasts (ptosis) caused by loss of skin tone and elasticity. Factors such as age, pregnancies, and changes in breast size can cause the breasts to lose their firmness and position. With a breast lift, the breasts can be repositioned, and if implants are used, you can achieve a beautiful bust that enhances your body’s harmony.
Mastopexy (Breast Lift) Benefits

FAQ
In most cases, women can breastfeed after a breast lift, especially if the surgeon has used a technique that does not significantly affect the milk ducts or the nipples’ ability to produce milk. However, it is always advisable to discuss your breastfeeding plans with your surgeon before surgery to take the necessary precautions.
Yes, like any surgery, breast pexy leaves scars, but these tend to fade over time; scars vary depending on the healing process of each patient.
Although immediate results of breast pexy are visible shortly after surgery, the final shape of the breasts and complete healing may take 3 to 6 months. During the first few weeks, swelling and bruising may make it difficult to fully appreciate the results.
Yes, if you have had breast augmentation surgery previously and are experiencing sagging breasts due to aging, pregnancy, or weight loss, you may be eligible for a breast lift. In fact, many patients choose to combine the breast lift with an implant replacement or adjustment if necessary.
In most cases, nipple sensitivity is not affected, although it is possible to experience some temporary changes due to surgery. If the incision is made around the areola, there may be a risk of altered sensitivity, but this usually resolves over time.
