Looking your best is an important part of overall health, wellness and self-esteem. Unfortunately, things like time, pregnancy and simply aging can take their toll on how we look. This is especially true for the breasts, leading to sagging, irregular shaping and more. In the past, women simply had to accept the effects of time as a fact of life, but today, medical innovations like mastopexy procedures can rejuvenate and restore a youthful appearance to the breasts while improving confidence, bolstering self-esteem and promoting greater mental and emotional well-being.
A mastopexy procedure is commonly known as a breast lift. This procedure involves the reduction of excess skin around the breast and areola to firm up the breast tissue and promote a more perky appearance. This procedure is different from breast augmentation in that the procedure does not involve implants or a change in the size of the breasts. Instead, a lift procedure focuses on lifting the breasts to restore positioning and reduce drooping and sagging.
Virtually anyone who is in good health and is concerned about sagging breasts is a good candidate for breast lift treatment. Our practice treats both men and women who have experienced the effects of aging, but we also work with younger patients who may have noticed a change in breast positioning due to weight gain, weight loss or pregnancy and breastfeeding. If you look in the mirror and are unhappy seeing stretched skin and drooping breasts, chances are you are the ideal candidate for breast lift treatment.
Our clients often find that they experience a boost in confidence after a lift procedure, and this can translate to improved mood, increased mental clarity and more. From a medical health perspective, you may experience improved posture after a lift procedure, and for many of our clients, exercise and everyday living become easier as well.
Although lift surgery and breast augmentation are two separate procedures that are usually performed for two separate purposes, they are related. We often meet with clients who are not only unsatisfied with breast drooping and sagging, but they are also concerned about size and shape. Once again, the effects of time, age and pregnancy can impact these features of the breast, but the good news is that you can have both procedures performed at our plastic surgery center.
Your initial consultation is custom-designed to address your unique concerns. You will have a chance to meet with your plastic surgeon and learn about all of the options available to rejuvenate your look through lift surgery. We take into account your medical history, your current lifestyle requirements and more to ensure that your procedure meets the highest standards of quality care and compassionate support. We always encourage you to ask questions as we value an informed and comfortable client.
A breast lift is completed by tightening skin around the breasts that has become loose due to age, time, gravity, breastfeeding and other factors. This is done by making small, thin incisions to remove excess skin and tighten, tone and firm the breasts while restoring and repositioning them back to their natural perkiness.

Any incision made during a lift treatment is thin and focused to minimize scarring. A breast lift procedure is also minimally invasive, so wounds are generally not aggravated which can lead to more scarring. Our surgeons and your surgical care team will provide you with aftercare instructions to help aid in the healing process, and we’re always here to answer questions or address concerns after your procedure.
Although scarring is possible with any type of surgical procedure, we use advanced technology and the latest in surgical techniques to minimize scarring. Over time, scarring can fade and be addressed using topical products, and most of our clients can’t even tell that surgery was ever performed after recovery.
On average, costs can range between $4,000 and $8,000 for a breast lift in Miami. We will be happy to find a solution that works for you, and if lift procedures are covered by your insurance provider, we can work with your plan as well.
The results of a lift procedure depend on a number of factors, but you are in control of many of them. Maintaining a healthy weight and practicing good skin care are essential to long-lasting results, but utilizing proper support garments is also key. Your breast lift doctor will discuss the specifics of your health, lifestyle and procedure with you prior to surgery and during follow-up care to ensure that your breasts remain perky and properly positioned for many years to come.
Because a breast lift procedure does not affect the way that the breast functions, it should have no impact on your ability to breastfeed. Your plastic surgeon will work with you to find the best path forward if you are breastfeeding currently or plan to in the future.
In most cases, nipple sensation will not be affected long-term as a result of lift surgery. During your short-term recovery period, you may experience pain, tingling and numbness in the nipple area, but these side effects should subside within a few weeks to a few months.
Recovery times can vary, but most clients are able to get back to normal activities within a week, and within six to eight weeks, recovery is usually complete when following proper aftercare and engaging in light physical activities.
A lift procedure can be used to reshape and reposition the breasts without the need for implants. A breast implant may add additional size, shape and weight to breasts that have been lifted, but it is not necessary to have implants in order to experience the benefits of a lift.
Whether or not your insurance provider will cover a lift procedure depends on your plan. As a result, we encourage you to speak with your insurance provider to discuss the specifics of your needs. In some instances, a provider will only cover lift surgery if the procedure is related to a medical condition, but in any case, we will be happy to work with you and your provider to find a solution that meets your needs.
