How long do breast lift results last?

With proper care, results can last many years. However, natural aging and lifestyle factors like pregnancy or weight change can impact long-term shape.

Will a breast lift make my breasts smaller?

A breast lift repositions and reshapes the breasts but does not significantly change volume. If you want more or less volume, augmentation or reduction can be combined with the lift.

Will I have visible scars?

Yes, but they’re carefully planned and fade with time. Dr. Bravo uses refined techniques and offers scar care guidance to promote optimal healing.

Can I breastfeed after a breast lift?

Breastfeeding may still be possible, but this depends on the technique used and your anatomy. It’s best to have the surgery after you’ve completed your family, if possible.

“Do I need implants too?”

Not necessarily. If you’re happy with your breast size but want to lift and firm the shape, a standalone lift is sufficient. If you’ve lost volume, implants may help enhance the overall result.

What is recovery like after a breast lift?

Expect mild soreness and swelling for the first week. Most patients return to daily activities in 7 days and full physical activity in about 4 to 6 weeks.

Is the result permanent?

The improvement is long-lasting, but gravity, aging, and lifestyle changes can affect the outcome over time. Supportive bras and weight stability help prolong results.

What Is a Breast Lift?

Dr. Miguel Gómez Bravo | Plastic Surgeon Abu Dhabi – Body Contouring & Aesthetics

A breast lift, or mastopexy, is a surgical procedure that reshapes and lifts sagging breasts without significantly changing their size. Over time, pregnancy, breastfeeding, weight fluctuations, and gravity can cause breasts to lose firmness and sit lower on the chest. A breast lift repositions the breast tissue and nipple, removes excess skin, and creates a firmer, more youthful contour.

What to Expect from Surgery

Your surgical plan is based on breast anatomy, degree of sagging, skin elasticity, and whether you wish to add volume (implants) or reduce size.

Anesthesia: General
Duration: 2–4 hours depending on complexity
Techniques: Periareolar, vertical (lollipop), L-shape incision (without scars in the cleavage) or anchor lift depending on the case
Scars: Carefully placed and minimized with advanced closure techniques
Recovery: Return to light activities in 1 week; full recovery in 4–6 weeks

Am I a Candidate?

If you want to increase size, a breast lift with implants may be recommended. If your breasts are heavy or causing symptoms, a lift with reduction may be more appropriate.

Your breasts have lost shape or firmness
Your nipples point downward or sit below the breast crease
You have breast asymmetry or deflation after pregnancy
You are at a stable weight and not currently breastfeeding
