What is a Breast Lift?
A breast lift procedure, or mastopexy, raises and firms the breasts by removing excess skin and tightening surrounding tissue to create more youthful, naturally shaped breasts. Incisions are strategically placed around the nipple and may extend from the nipple to the inframammary crease.

- Sagging or asymmetric breasts

- Breast shape changes after pregnancy or weight fluctuations
Types of Breast Lift Techniques
Crescent Lift
A minimal breast lift technique using a small crescent-shaped incision along the upper edge of the areola. Typically used for patients with smaller breasts and minimal volume loss.
Donut Lift
Involves an incision circumferentially around the areola, used for mild to moderate ptosis and potential areola reduction.
Lollipop Lift
Extended periareolar incision with a vertical component, ideal for moderately drooping breasts seeking enhanced shape without implants.
Anchor Lift
Most comprehensive technique for severe breast sagging, with incisions around the areola, vertically down to the breast crease, and horizontally along the crease.
