Specialist Plastic Surgeon
Breast Lift Surgery
Specialised breast surgery to lift and rejuvenate sagging breasts, resulting in a firmer and perkier appearance.
A breast lift, known as a Mastopexy procedure, is a surgical technique designed to rejuvenate the breasts by removing excess skin and reshaping breast gland tissue. This process enhances the upper breast volume, tightens the overall breast structure, and elevates them higher on the chest wall.
Enhanced Appearance: A breast lift restores a perkier look to the breasts. It addresses sagging or drooping, giving you a more aesthetically pleasing breast contour.
Improved Comfort: Many individuals experience relief from physical discomforts such as neck, back, or shoulder pain that can result from sagging breasts. A breast lift can alleviate these discomforts and improve your quality of life.

Is Breast Lift Surgery Right For Me?
If you’re dealing with breast deflation, sag or a loss of breast firmness, a breast lift might be the right choice to help restore a rejuvenated breast appearance. It’s crucial to have a comprehensive consultation to discuss your unique needs, expectations, and any potential benefits or risks associated with the procedure.
Am I the Ideal candidate?
An ideal candidate for a breast lift is someone seeking to rejuvenate the appearance of their breasts, particularly if they have experienced sagging or loss of volume due to factors such as ageing, pregnancy, or weight fluctuations. During a personalised consultation, we assess your specific goals and determine if a breast lift aligns with your desired outcome.
During breast lift surgery, excess skin is removed, and breast gland tissue is reshaped to create a lifted and firmer breast appearance. The specific technique and incision pattern used will depend on individual factors and goals, which will be discussed during a consultation with a surgeon.
After Breast Surgery
Recovery from a breast lift typically involves a few weeks for the surgical site to heal, with most patients regaining the ability to drive within 1-2 weeks and resuming more strenuous activities at around 4-6 weeks post-surgery. The post-operative care includes wearing a supportive bra for proper healing and managing any discomfort during the initial healing phase.

Frequently Asked
Questions about Breast Lift Surgery?
It is understandable to have a lot of questions when exploring any surgery. Here are the most common ones we receive when talking with patients about Breast Lift Surgery
Is a breast lift suitable for me if I only want a lift without reducing breast volume?
We always aim to retain as much breast tissue as possible during a breast lift. However, sometimes it is necessary to exercise a bit of breast skin and tissue in the process, in order to make room and rearrange the breast into a better and lifted shape.

A breast lift reshapes and tightens existing breast tissue, while a breast augmentation enhances volume with implants; they serve different purposes.

The choice depends on your goals and breast appearance; a consultation helps determine the best approach for your desired outcome.
Can a breast lift be performed if I plan to have children and breastfeed in the future?
It’s advisable to complete breastfeeding and family planning before considering a breast lift.

The type of scars varies based on your individual needs, but common options include peri-areolar, vertical, or anchor-shaped incisions.
