Breast lift (mastopexy) is a commonly performed cosmetic surgical procedure that improves the shape and contour of the breasts without altering size. It may also be performed in combination with breast augmentation (implants) to achieve an optimal result. Many women, while satisfied with their basic breast size, still feel self-conscious about their breasts for a variety of reasons.
The most common reasons women consider this procedure include:
- to balance the shape or position of uneven breasts
- to reshape sagging breasts following pregnancy/childbirth/breastfeeding
- to raise the position of downward pointing nipples and areolas
- to reduce the size of the areolas
- to increase the firmness of soft breasts.
Breast lift surgery provides pleasing results in those women who are satisfied with their existing breast size.

The breast lift procedure can be performed at any age once breast development has stopped. Breast size and shape can change with pregnancy, childbirth and breastfeeding, weight loss and ageing and it's important to remember that following the lift, your breasts will continue to be affected by these events over the coming years. The result of breast lift surgery is longer lasting in smaller-breasted women.
