Overview

About Breast Lifts

Breast shape changes over time due to factors including aging, pregnancy, weight fluctuations, or gravity. When breasts lose their youthful position and firmness, it can affect both clothing fit and personal confidence in your silhouette.

Breast lift surgery, medically known as mastopexy, restores a more youthful breast position while creating naturally lifted, alluring curves that enhance your feminine appeal. The procedure reshapes and repositions breast tissue to achieve a firmer, more elevated bustline that complements your overall physique.

Dr. Ali Roham approaches breast lift surgery with both technical precision and artistic vision, understanding that successful mastopexy requires careful evaluation of breast anatomy, skin quality, and individual aesthetic goals.

5 star rating

My experience with Dr. Ali Roham has always been a positive one. I appreciate going to this office for the simple fact that they do not try to push treatments or procedures to help me look better. This has happened to me in the past at another establishment, and I was completely turned off and will never go back.

I have been a patient of Dr. Roham for many years and this review is well overdue.
It's very rare to come across a plastic surgeon who is so humble, down to earth and is always smiling. He listens and provides options but mostly he makes you feel comfortable and relaxed.

Dr. Ali is amazing! I had breast augmentation 3 months ago and the pain was minimal to none. The results look and feel super natural. Minimal visible scarring. Dr. Ali's team has been super attentive to all of my concerns and questions, which made me feel at ease with the whole recovery process. Dr. Ali is the only surgeon I trust!

Dr. Roham was recommended by a friend of mine who did her procedure with him. I truly must say his office is the best! I came in with my vision and he truly achieved it! His bedside manners are amazing! I had my liposuction 360, augmentation, and tummy tuck... What I loved most is Dr. Ali keeps your expectations realistic.

What is a Breast Lift?

A breast lift (mastopexy) is a surgical procedure that restores youthful breast position and shape by removing excess skin, repositioning breast tissue, and elevating the nipple-areolar complex to create a firmer, more attractive bustline. The surgery addresses the effects of aging, pregnancy, weight changes, and gravity that cause breasts to lose their natural lift and projection over time.

The procedure involves reshaping the breast tissue itself, not just the overlying skin, to create internal support that maintains the lifted appearance long-term. Modern breast lift techniques allow for highly customized approaches based on the degree of correction needed, skin quality, and individual anatomy, with incision patterns carefully selected to minimize visible scarring while providing optimal results.

Ideal Candidates for a Breast Lift

The most successful breast lift outcomes occur in patients who meet specific criteria that optimize both safety and aesthetic results:

  • Breasts that have lost firmness and descended due to aging, pregnancy, or weight changes

  • Nipples that point downward or fall below the breast crease when viewed from the side

  • Satisfaction with current breast size but desire for improved shape and position

  • Realistic expectations about surgical outcomes and scarring trade-offs

  • Stable weight with no plans for significant future weight changes or pregnancies

  • Understanding that breast lift addresses position and shape rather than size enhancement

Dr. Roham evaluates each patient's breast anatomy, skin elasticity, and aesthetic goals to determine the most appropriate surgical technique and provide realistic expectations about achievable improvements for their specific situation.

Crescent Lift

Addresses minimal breast sagging through a small incision along the upper areola border, making it suitable for patients requiring minor nipple repositioning with virtually invisible scarring. This technique works best for patients with good breast shape who need subtle elevation.

Periareolar (Donut) Lift

Utilizes a circular incision around the areola to correct mild to moderate sagging while allowing for areola size reduction if desired. This approach provides moderate lifting capability while keeping scars confined to the areola border where they blend naturally with tissue transitions.

Vertical (Lollipop) Lift

Combines a periareolar incision with a vertical incision extending down to the breast crease, providing greater lifting capability for moderate breast sagging. This technique allows for significant reshaping and repositioning while avoiding horizontal scars across the breast.

Anchor (Inverted-T) Lift

Incorporates periareolar, vertical, and horizontal incisions to provide maximum lifting and reshaping capability for severe breast sagging. While this technique creates the most extensive scarring, it enables comprehensive correction of significant ptosis and tissue excess.

Recovery after Breast Lift

First Week:

  • Limited arm movement and lifting restrictions to protect healing tissues

  • Compression garment or surgical bra worn continuously for support

  • Pain managed with prescribed medications as swelling and bruising peak

  • Short walks encouraged while avoiding upper body activity

Weeks 2-4:

  • Gradual increase in daily activities while avoiding strenuous exercise

  • Return to work possible for desk jobs, depending on comfort level

  • Continued wearing of supportive garments as directed

  • Progressive improvement in breast shape as swelling subsides

Months 1-6:

  • Cleared for exercise and normal activities as healing progresses

  • Breast shape continues to refine as tissues settle into final position

  • Scar maturation process begins with proper care and sun protection

  • Final results become apparent as all swelling resolves completely

Dr. Roham provides detailed recovery instructions tailored to your specific technique and individual healing characteristics, with regular follow-up appointments to monitor progress and address any concerns during the recovery process.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will my breast size change with a lift?

Breast lift primarily addresses position and shape rather than size, though some patients may notice a slight apparent size increase due to improved projection and positioning, while others may experience minimal volume reduction from tissue removal during reshaping.

How visible will my scars be?

Scar visibility depends on the technique used and individual healing characteristics, with incisions strategically placed to minimize visibility and most scars fading significantly over 12-18 months with proper care and sun protection.

Can I breastfeed after a breast lift?

Many women can successfully breastfeed after breast lift, though the ability may be affected depending on the surgical technique used and individual anatomy, with preservation of milk ducts and nipple sensation being important considerations.

How long do breast lift results last?

Results are long-lasting but not permanent, as natural aging, gravity, and lifestyle factors continue to affect breast position over time, though most patients enjoy their improved breast position for many years with proper care.

Can I combine a breast lift with implants?

Yes, breast lift can be effectively combined with breast augmentation to address both position and size concerns simultaneously, creating comprehensive breast enhancement that addresses multiple aesthetic goals in one procedure.

How do I minimize scarring?

Following proper scar care instructions including sun protection, massage techniques, and potential scar treatment products can significantly improve final scar appearance, though individual healing varies based on genetics and skin type.

Can a breast lift fix asymmetry?

Yes, breast lift surgery is highly effective for correcting breast asymmetry through individualized techniques that address differences in size, shape, and position to create more balanced, symmetrical breast appearance.

How long does the surgery take?

Breast lift surgery typically takes 2-4 hours depending on the technique used and complexity of correction needed, with most procedures completed safely under general anesthesia in an outpatient setting.
