What is Breast Lift Surgery?

A breast lift, also known as mastopexy, is a surgical procedure that raises and reshapes sagging breasts by removing excess skin and tightening the surrounding tissue. The procedure elevates the nipple position, improves breast contour, and creates a more youthful appearance without significantly changing breast size.

Breast Lift Surgery FAQs

What is a breast lift?

A breast lift, or mastopexy, is a surgical procedure that raises and reshapes sagging breasts by removing excess skin and tightening the surrounding tissue. The procedure elevates the nipple position, improves breast contour, and creates a more youthful appearance without significantly changing breast size. Dr. Diaz’s approach focuses on creating natural-looking results that complement your body’s proportions.

Am i a good candidate for a breast lift?

Ideal candidates for breast lift surgery include women who experience breast sagging (ptosis) due to pregnancy, breastfeeding, weight fluctuations, aging, or genetics. You should be in good overall health, at a stable weight, and have realistic expectations about the procedure’s outcomes. If you’ve noticed your nipples point downward or fall below your breast crease, a breast lift may be right for you. During your consultation, Dr. Diaz will assess your specific situation and recommend the best approach.

Will a breast lift make my breasts smaller or larger?

A breast lift alone does not significantly change breast size but rather improves shape and position. The procedure may create the appearance of fuller upper breasts by redistributing existing tissue, but it won’t add volume. If you desire larger breasts along with lifting, Dr. Diaz can combine your lift with breast augmentation. For those seeking smaller breasts, a breast reduction with lift (reduction-mastopexy) can be performed. Dr. Diaz will discuss all available options during your consultation.

What type of breast incisions are used?

Dr. Diaz uses several incision patterns depending on your degree of sagging and desired outcome. These include periareolar (around the areola only), vertical or “lollipop” (around the areola and vertically down to the breast crease), and anchor or inverted-T (around the areola, vertically down, and horizontally along the breast crease). For minimal sagging, less extensive incisions may be possible. Dr. Diaz selects the approach that will provide optimal results with the least visible scarring.

How long is recovery after a breast lift?

Most patients return to light activities and work within 1 week following breast lift surgery. Initial swelling and discomfort typically subside within the first week and can be managed with prescribed medication. A surgical support bra is worn for several weeks to reduce swelling and support your new breast contour. Most patients can resume exercise after 4 weeks. Dr. Diaz provides comprehensive aftercare instructions and follows your healing process closely.

Will i have visible scars from breast lift surgery?

All surgical procedures leave some scarring, but Dr. Diaz uses advanced techniques to place incisions in the natural contours of the breast where they’re less visible. Scars typically fade significantly over time, becoming less noticeable within 6-12 months. Dr. Diaz also provides detailed scar care instructions to optimize healing. Many patients find that the improvement in breast shape and position far outweighs concerns about scarring.

How long do breast lift results last?

Breast lift results are long-lasting, but they cannot stop the natural aging process entirely. Factors such as significant weight fluctuations, future pregnancies, and the natural aging process can affect your results over time. Maintaining a stable weight, following a healthy lifestyle, and wearing supportive bras can help preserve your results. Many patients enjoy their improved breast shape for 10-15 years or longer.

Can i combine a breast lift with other procedures?

Yes, breast lifts are commonly combined with other procedures for comprehensive rejuvenation. Popular combinations include breast lift with augmentation, breast lift with reduction, or as part of a mommy makeover. Dr. Diaz will recommend the safest combination for your goals.

how much does a breast lift cost in beverly hills

In Beverly Hills, breast lift costs typically range in value depending on the complexity of your procedure and whether it is combined with other surgeries. We offer flexible financing options to help make your breast lift more accessible.

What are the risks or potential complications of a breast lift?

Like any surgery, a breast lift carries risks such as infection, bleeding, or wound-healing problems, but Dr. John Diaz’s meticulous technique and experienced team minimize these complications. He reviews all risks during consultation so each patient can decide with full information.

Can a breast lift affect nipple sensation or breastfeeding?

Some patients experience temporary changes in nipple sensation after a lift, and while many retain the ability to breastfeed, Dr. Diaz explains individual likelihoods during the preoperative evaluation. He plans each procedure to preserve sensation and breastfeeding function whenever possible.

How visible will scars be, and how long until they fade?

Scars after a lift are permanent but usually soften and fade over 12–24 months; Dr. Diaz places incisions strategically so they can be hidden under bras and swimsuits. With proper care and follow-up, most patients find their scars to be discreet over time.

Can a breast lift be combined with implants or fat transfer to increase volume?

Yes — Dr. Diaz frequently combines lifts with implants or fat grafting when patients want additional volume, achieving lift and fullness in one operation. Combining procedures is planned carefully to optimize shape, support, and long-term results.

Will my breasts stay lifted forever after a breast lift?

A breast lift provides long-lasting improvement, but natural aging, gravity, weight changes, and future pregnancy can alter the result over time; Dr. Diaz advises on ways to prolong the outcome. Many patients enjoy durable results for years with proper care.

What is the recommended downtime? When can I return to work or exercise?

Most patients return to desk work within 7–10 days, while strenuous exercise and heavy lifting are generally restricted for at least 4–6 weeks under Dr. Diaz’s guidance. He gives a personalized timeline based on the exact procedure and healing progress.

How will aging, pregnancy, or weight changes affect the lift over time?

Aging, pregnancy, and significant weight fluctuations will change the appearance of the breasts, but the exact changes are unpredictable and depend on how each individual heals. During your consultation, Dr. Diaz will discuss timing and expectations so patients can make informed choices about surgery planning.
