What is a breast lift?
A breast lift surgery, also known as a mastopexy, is a cosmetic surgical procedure that is designed to raise and reshape sagging breasts. During a breast lift surgery, excess skin is removed from the breasts, and the surrounding tissue is tightened to give the breasts a more youthful and lifted appearance. The nipple and areola are also repositioned to a higher location on the chest while restoring the breast shape using your own tissue. As a female plastic surgeon, Dr. Haley Augustine understands the feelings and concerns women may have toward their breasts. She recommends breast lifts to help women restore lost volume and enhance the overall shape and contour of the breasts.

Who is a good candidate for breast lift?
Ideal candidates for breast lift surgery are women who have experienced changes in breast shape and position due to pregnancy, breastfeeding, weight fluctuations, aging, or genetics. Breast lifts can benefit patients who are unhappy with their natural breast appearance and are looking to improve the balance and symmetry of the breasts, improving comfort in clothing and activities. Ideal candidates are in good overall health, non-smokers, and have a stable weight. They should also have realistic expectations about the surgery’s outcomes.
Is this procedure right for you?
Dr. Haley Augustine provides an empathetic and gentle approach. As a female surgeon and mother of two, she is patient and understands the unique challenges many women face regarding their bodies.

Breast lift vs Breast Reduction
Breast lift (mastopexy) and breast reduction are two different surgical procedures. While both procedures involve altering the shape of the breasts, they are used to address different concerns.
A breast lift is a procedure designed to lift and reshape sagging breasts. It involves removing excess skin, repositioning the nipples and areolas, and tightening the surrounding tissue to give the breasts a more youthful and lifted appearance. The goal of a breast lift is to improve the shape and position of the breasts, but it does not typically involve removing a significant amount of breast tissue.
Breast reduction, on the other hand, is a procedure that is designed to significantly reduce the size and weight of the breasts to help with back pain and other physical symptoms. It is often performed on women who have disproportionately large breasts, causing physical discomfort, back pain, and other health problems. During a breast reduction, excess breast tissue and skin are removed.
When will I see my transformation?
The results of a breast lift are noticeable immediately after the procedure. Still, they will become more pronounced over the following weeks as swelling diminishes and your new breast shape settles. The final results will become more visible over the following months. These results are long-lasting, especially if you maintain a stable weight and a healthy lifestyle. Improving the shape and position of your breasts will give you a more youthful, rejuvenated appearance, significantly boosting your self-confidence.

How long do the results of a breast lift last?
The results of a breast lift surgery and its longevity vary based on age, lifestyle, and the quality of the skin and soft tissue. Changes in weight, gravity, hormonal changes, and aging can cause the breasts to sag again over time, which may affect the longevity of the results. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle, wearing a supportive bra, and avoiding significant weight fluctuations can help prolong the results of a breast lift surgery. Discussing the expected outcomes and potential risks before the procedure is important.
