What is Breast Lift Surgery?

Breast lift surgery, or mastopexy, is a procedure designed to raise and reshape sagging breasts by removing excess skin and tightening the surrounding tissue. It can also reposition the nipples for a more youthful and proportionate appearance.

Reasons for Breast Lift Surgery

  • Breast Sagging (Ptosis) – Loss of elasticity due to aging, pregnancy, or weight fluctuations.
  • Nipple Positioning – Nipples pointing downward or sitting below the breast crease.
  • Uneven Breasts – Correcting asymmetry for a more balanced look.
  • Enhancing Breast Profile – Restoring a perkier breast shape.

Breast Lift Techniques

  • Crescent Lift – A minimal lift for mild sagging.
  • Peri-Areolar (Donut) Lift – For moderate sagging and nipple repositioning.
  • Vertical (Lollipop) Lift – For moderate to severe sagging, removing excess skin.
  • Anchor Lift – For significant sagging, creating a dramatic lift and reshaping.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I find the right bra to optimize my results after surgery?

Finding the right bra after surgery can make a big difference in both your comfort and your results. While bra sizing isn’t an exact science, it’s helpful to understand a few basics—like your band size (which reflects the circumference around your chest) and your cup size (which is influenced by the width and projection of your breast tissue). After a breast lift or reduction, your chest circumference often becomes a bit smaller, since we bring tissue from the sides of the chest forward. At the same time, the overall width—or "footprint"—of the breast becomes more centralized and compact. Because of this, your cup size may appear larger even though your overall breast volume has been slightly reduced. To ensure you get the best fit, I recommend being professionally fitted for bras about 8 weeks after surgery. Nordstrom offers expert fittings, and locally in Portland, The Pencil Test is a fantastic boutique that specializes in a wide range of sizes and supportive options for post-surgical and fuller-busted patients. We’re also happy to guide you through this during your follow-up visits—your comfort and support truly matter as you heal.

What can I do to minimize scarring after breast lift surgery?

Scarring is a natural part of healing after a breast lift, and I always do my best to place incisions in a way that allows for the most discreet and well-healed result. The type of scar you have will depend on how much skin needs to be removed and where your nipples need to be repositioned. Some women may only need a small crescent-shaped scar around the areola, while others may benefit most from an anchor-shaped scar to achieve a more lifted, balanced shape. The good news is that breast surgery scars typically heal very well over time. Most scars begin to fade significantly between 6 to 12 months after surgery. To support your healing, I often recommend silicone sheeting, which is most helpful when used consistently from about 1 to 4 months post-op. Other effective options we may consider include gentle scar massage, steroid injections, or laser treatments, depending on how your skin responds. We’ll review your scar progress together at follow-up visits and tailor the plan to your needs—my goal is to help you feel confident every step of the way.
