Breast Lift Procedure
A breast lift—also known as a mastopexy—restores lost shape, firmness, and elasticity caused by pregnancy, breastfeeding, significant weight changes, aging, or genetics. This procedure is designed to elevate and reshape the breasts, improving symmetry and correcting a drooping or deflated appearance. It can also reduce enlarged or stretched areolas, a common concern after breastfeeding or weight fluctuations.
By removing excess skin and tightening the surrounding tissue, a breast lift can restore youthful contours, improve overall balance, and renew your confidence. While a breast lift alone does not significantly change breast size or add fullness to the upper portion of the breast, these goals can often be achieved through a simultaneous breast augmentation if desired. One of the most popular cosmetic procedures in Oklahoma, mastopexy is a well-established surgery that typically involves minimal incisions and a straightforward recovery.
You may be a good candidate for a breast lift if you:
- Are a non-smoker
- Have nipples & areolas that point downward and/or fall below the inframammory fold
- Have breasts that sag or have lost shape and volume
- Have breasts with a flat, elongated, or pendular shape
- Have one breast lower than the other
- Have stretched skin and enlarged areolas
Breast lift surgery can be performed using several incision patterns and techniques, depending on your anatomy and aesthetic goals. Factors such as skin quality, elasticity, breast size and shape, degree of sagging, and areola position all influence the surgical approach.
In general, the breast tissue is lifted and reshaped to restore a more youthful contour and improved firmness. The nipple and areola are repositioned to a more natural height, and in some cases, resized by removing excess surrounding skin. Additional skin is removed to compensate for lost elasticity, resulting in a smoother, more supported breast shape.
The benefits of a breast lift are visible immediately, with continued improvement as swelling subsides and incision lines gradually fade. The final result is a beautifully contoured, natural-looking breast shape that can dramatically enhance both your appearance and self-confidence.
