If you’ve noticed changes in the appearance of your breasts due to aging, pregnancy, or weight loss, you may be wondering whether a breast lift is right for you. Sagging, uneven, or flattened breasts can affect your self-esteem and make it difficult to find flattering clothing. Fortunately, a breast lift, or mastopexy, can restore a youthful, lifted contour to your bust.
At Genesis Plastic Surgery & Medical Spa, Dr. Jayesh Panchal offers over 20 years of experience in plastic surgery, including breast lifts. Nationally and internationally recognized for his compassionate approach and surgical precision, Dr. Panchal is dedicated to helping his patients feel confident and supported.
Find out if you’re a good candidate for a breast lift below.
What Is a Breast Lift?
During a breast lift, a surgeon repositions the breast tissue and nipple, removing excess skin and reshaping the breasts for a firmer, perkier look.
This procedure does not drastically change breast size. However, you can combine it with breast augmentation or reduction.
Signs You May Be a Good Candidate
You might be a strong candidate for a breast lift if you:
- Experience sagging or drooping breasts
- Feel your nipples point downward or fall below the breast crease
- Have an asymmetrical or elongated breast shape
- Have lost volume or firmness after pregnancy, breastfeeding, or weight loss
- Are done having children
- Have maintained a stable weight for at least 6 months
- Are in good general health and a non-smoker
If you can check these boxes, you will likely benefit from mastopexy. However, a discussion with Dr. Panchal is the best way to determine if a breast lift is right for you.
What to Expect from the Procedure
When deciding whether to move forward with a breast lift, it’s essential to consider what the surgery entails and set realistic expectations.
Dr. Panchal uses advanced surgical techniques tailored to your body and goals. The surgery usually lasts two to three hours and takes place in our fully accredited surgical facility.
Recovery time varies, but most patients return to light activity within a week and continue to see results improve over several months.
