What a Breast Lift Can Address
A breast lift, also known as mastopexy, is designed to reposition the breasts higher on the chest and reshape tissue that has stretched or lost firmness over time. Many women seek this procedure after pregnancy, weight fluctuations, or aging have caused the breasts to appear sagging, elongated, or deflated. A lift can elevate the breast mound, improve symmetry, refine the nipple position, and reshape the overall contour for a perkier, more youthful look. In some cases, Dr. Becker may recommend combining a breast lift with augmentation or reduction to achieve the most balanced and proportional result.
Understanding Breast Shape Changes
Loss of volume, stretched skin, and shifting breast tissue can all contribute to changes in breast position and shape. Some individuals notice that their nipples fall below the breast crease when unsupported or that the nipples and areolas point downward due to tissue laxity. Others may have enlarged areolas or one breast that sits lower than the other. During your consultation, Dr. Becker will assess these changes carefully and explain how mastopexy can restore a lifted, natural appearance that aligns with your anatomy and goals.
Who Is a Good Candidate?
Ideal candidates for breast lift surgery are healthy women who are not pregnant or breastfeeding and who have fully developed breasts. Many seek treatment because their breasts sag, have lost volume, or appear flattened or pendulous. Candidates often notice that their nipples fall below the breast crease, point downward, or appear stretched due to aging or pregnancy. Nonsmokers typically have smoother healing, and realistic expectations are essential for a satisfying outcome. Dr. Becker will evaluate your breast tissue, skin quality, health history, and personal goals to determine if mastopexy is the right choice for you.
How to Prepare for Your Surgery
Preparation for a breast lift may involve lab testing, medical evaluation, and reviewing your current medications. You may be asked to stop smoking well before surgery and avoid aspirin, anti-inflammatory medications, and certain supplements that increase bleeding. It is also important to arrange for transportation home and to ensure that someone stays with you during the first night after your procedure. Our team will provide clear, personalized pre-operative instructions so you feel fully prepared and supported leading up to surgery.
Your Recovery Experience
Recovery after mastopexy typically involves avoiding lifting and strenuous activity for the first two weeks while the incisions heal and early swelling subsides. Mild discomfort, tightness, or changes in nipple sensation are common in the early stages, and Dr. Becker will provide detailed guidance to help you manage your recovery comfortably. Follow-up appointments will allow us to monitor your healing and ensure the breasts are settling into their new, elevated position.

It was only 14 days since I had my abdominoplasty and a small liposuction. I am very delighted with the work. They are very kind. Honestly, the entire team, the surgeon, the anesthesiologist, and the girls, I recommend it 100%. My stomach is a beautiful thing, and I am still very swollen. I love my new navel. Thank you very much.
