Long-lasting results with thoughtful care: Outcomes can endure for years with steady weight, sun protection, and supportive wear.
A breast lift (mastopexy) reshapes breast tissue and tightens skin to restore a youthful contour. The surgeon selects an incision pattern based on your lift goals, skin quality, and breast shape, then repositions the nipple-areola complex and trims excess skin to achieve a lifted, natural result. For some patients in Los Angeles, this may be combined with volume enhancement, as discussed in more detail on our breast augmentation overview.
Throughout the procedure, meticulous care is taken to minimize scarring and preserve sensation and breastfeeding potential where possible. You’ll be treated in an accredited surgical facility with experienced anesthesia support to maximize comfort and safety.
You’re in good overall health with realistic expectations for outcomes.
You have sagging breasts or nipples that sit below the inframammary fold.
You have adequate breast volume and desire a more lifted shape without significant enlargement.
You’re not planning future pregnancies, or you carefully weigh the timing against potential changes in breast shape.
You understand the commitment to recovery and follow postoperative instructions.
Your safety is the top priority. The surgery is performed by a board-certified plastic surgeon in an accredited facility, with anesthesia administered by an experienced anesthesia team.
Dr. Kolker’s approach emphasizes precision, gentle tissue handling, and meticulous hemostasis to minimize risk and promote a smooth recovery. Clear preoperative instructions and close postoperative support help ensure comfort and peace of mind for breast lift patients in Los Angeles.
Recovery is individualized, but most patients report manageable discomfort and a steady path back to daily activities. You’ll wear a supportive post-surgical bra to protect the new contour and reduce swelling.
Light activity typically resumes within a few days, with full activities cautiously reintroduced over 2–6 weeks, depending on your healing and the specifics of your lift. For further guidance on recovery planning and safe cosmetic surgery decisions, many patients also find our informed cosmetic surgery guide helpful.
In some cases, a breast lift is paired with implants or fat grafting to restore both lift and volume. This combination can create a fuller upper pole and a balanced silhouette that aligns with your aesthetic goals. You can explore visual examples in our breast fat transfer gallery and dedicated breast lift gallery, and your surgeon will discuss the benefits, risks, and expected outcomes of any adjunctive procedure during your consultation.
Breast lift pricing varies with the extent of lift, incision type, and facility fees. A detailed, personalized quote is provided after your consultation, reflecting the exact surgical plan. Financing options may be available to support your journey, and our team can discuss these choices with you to fit your budget and timeline. For additional information, you can also review our payment and financing details.
A breast lift (mastopexy) raises and reshapes sagging breasts by tightening skin and repositioning tissue and the nipple-areola complex to achieve a more youthful contour.
A lift primarily reshapes and lifts; size changes are typically subtle. If you want more volume, a lift can be combined with breast augmentation.
Results can last many years, but aging, gravity, and weight changes can affect longevity. Maintaining a stable weight and wearing supportive bras helps.
Incisions will leave scars, which typically fade over time and appear along natural contours. Your surgeon will place incisions to minimize visibility.
Depending on the technique and extent of the lift, many patients retain breastfeeding ability, but this ultimately depends on the specifics of your surgery.
Expect some swelling and discomfort initially, with most patients resuming daily activities within 1–2 weeks. Full recovery and final results take several months.
