What is a Breast Lift?

Over time, aging, life events, and gravity can impact the appearance of even the most beautiful breasts. A breast lift, or mastopexy, can restore sagging breasts to a more youthful position and correct nipple placement. At Athēnix, our board-certified plastic surgeons prioritize minimizing scarring. The choice of incisions for addressing breast sagging varies according to each patient's unique breast and nipple condition.

Is a Breast Lift for You?

Nowadays, women have the advantage of correcting the effects of time and life on their bodies. Whether it's the aftermath of pregnancy, breastfeeding, weight fluctuations, or simply the natural passage of years, cosmetic procedures are available to help you regain that youthful and vibrant profile. A breast lift in Bellevue with Athēnix can address a range of concerns, including:

  • Sagging or pendulous breasts
  • Loss of breast volume due to weight loss or breastfeeding
  • Deflated or flat-looking breasts
  • Reduced fullness in the upper breast area
  • Loss of firmness
  • Unattractive cleavage appearance
  • Breasts descending due to decreased skin elasticity
  • Nipples pointing downward

The Benefits of a Breast Lift

  • Breasts with enhanced projection
  • Improved cleavage
  • Restoration of a youthful nipple position
  • Enhanced breast-to-buttocks proportion
  • Firmer, higher breasts
  • Freedom to go braless or wear low-cut tops and bikinis with confidence
  • Increased self-assurance and overall well-being

Choosing Your Lift

A breast lift surgery eliminates surplus skin, resulting in a firmer and raised breast contour. While a breast lift doesn't alter the breast's size, it can be paired with breast augmentation to recover lost volume or enhance size. Your Athēnix plastic surgeon will evaluate your requirements to ensure the attainment of the most aesthetically pleasing and balanced outcomes.

Anchor lift

The anchor breast lift technique involves incisions encircling the areola, extending vertically down the breast and horizontally along the breast crease to achieve a comprehensive lift.

Crescent lift

The crescent breast lift utilizes a surgical method with a crescent-shaped incision around the upper border of the areola, focusing on elevating and reshaping the breast for a more subtle lift.

Circumareolar lift

The circumareolar lift approach utilizes an incision encircling the perimeter of the areola to reshape and elevate the breasts, often recommended for minor lifting and contouring.

Combining a Breast Lift With Other Treatments

At Athēnix, we provide the chance for a complete makeover by integrating a breast lift with additional procedures. For example, women facing sagging in both the breast and abdominal regions can find an advantage in a mommy makeover, encompassing a breast lift and tummy tuck. Pairing breast augmentation with a lift can lead to larger, more lifted breasts, contributing to a more striking transformation.

Your Recovery Process

Immediate Post-Op & Day Of 

Medical professionals will take you to a recovery area for close monitoring following your breast lift surgery. It's common to experience pain and discomfort but rest assured, you'll receive medication to manage these symptoms. Your breasts will be securely wrapped with bandages and placed in a surgical bra to provide essential support.

Following Days

Rest and avoiding strenuous activities are crucial for the first few days post-surgery. While some discomfort may persist, it should gradually diminish.

One Week

Around one week after your procedure, you'll return to Athēnix for a follow-up appointment. Your surgeon will remove the bandages, evaluate the healing progress, and determine if you need to wear a surgical bra for added support.

Two Weeks

You can typically return to work and engage in light activities after two weeks. However, it's essential to continue avoiding heavy lifting and strenuous exercise.

Six Weeks

You can usually resume normal activities at the six-week mark, including exercise. By this time, the breasts will have undergone significant healing, and any scars will begin to fade.

Three Months

Around the three-month mark, you'll follow up with your Athēnix surgeon. The scars will continue to fade, and the breasts will have settled into their new position.

Six Months

At the six-month post-surgery mark, the breasts will have fully healed, and any remaining scars will continue to fade. This is when you can expect to see the final results of your breast lift surgery.

Perky Results

Whether it's due to pregnancy, breastfeeding, the natural aging process, or genetic factors, many women desire to restore the high, firm, and perky breasts they once had. While we can't turn back time, a breast lift can work wonders for your overall appearance and well-being. It improves clothing fit, boosts confidence, and enhances your overall figure.

What is the minimum age requirement for a breast lift?

How do I choose between a breast augmentation or a breast lift?

If you're looking for a more pronounced transformation than what a breast lift can offer on its own, you may want to consider combining breast augmentation with a breast lift. This can help you achieve fuller, firmer, and higher breasts. However, if you're satisfied with your current breast volume and simply want to restore and uplift them to their previous position, a breast lift alone may suffice.

Can exercise improve the appearance of sagging breasts?

Maintaining a healthy lifestyle is important to delay the effects of time. However, the impacts of aging, gravity, and life events on the breasts often require a breast lift procedure, either with or without the addition of saline or silicone gel implants for breast augmentation.

What are the risks?

Before undergoing a breast lift procedure, it's important to be aware of the potential risks. These may include scarring, infection, complications related to anesthesia, changes in nipple sensation, asymmetry, and delayed healing. It's recommended that you discuss these risks with your surgeon beforehand to ensure you have a thorough understanding of what to expect.

Will breast lift surgery result in visible scars?

Although breast lift surgery, like any other surgical procedure, can result in scarring, our skilled plastic surgeons use advanced techniques to minimize scarring and make it as inconspicuous as possible. As time passes, the scars tend to become less noticeable and fade away.

Can I breastfeed after a breast lift?

In most cases, breast lift surgery does not affect breastfeeding. However, it's recommended that you discuss your intentions regarding breastfeeding with your surgeon during the consultation. This will help ensure that the procedure has minimal impact on your ability to breastfeed in the future.

What is the minimum age requirement for a breast lift?

The suitability of a breast lift is not determined by age, but rather by your overall health and aesthetic objectives. During the consultation, the surgeon will evaluate your candidacy for the procedure based on these factors. As such, there is no strict age limit for a breast lift.
