What Is a Breast Lift?
A breast lift surgery, medically known as Mastopexy, is a cosmetic surgical procedure that raises and reshapes sagging breasts to create a firmer and more youthful appearance. It helps restore breast position affected by aging, pregnancy, breastfeeding, weight changes, loss of skin elasticity, and other irregularities.
A Breast Lift surgery can do the following:
- Give your breasts a symmetrical and identical look.
- Result in a more rounded image.
- Provide better support to your nipples and areola by repositioning them and tightening the breast tissue.
- Fix downward-facing nipples and areolas.
- Adjust nipples that point in different directions.
A breast lift is a minimally invasive technique with rapid recovery that offers beautifully balanced, elegant outcomes tailored to your unique figure.
For many women, a beautiful, flawless, youthful breast shape is much more important than breast size. Pregnancy, weight gain and loss, heredity, or advancing age can lead to loss of breast volume, projection, and position. At Millennial Plastic Surgery, our surgeons help you achieve a more uplifted, attractive, natural breast contour that aligns with your personal aesthetic goals and enhances your overall body proportions.
Am I a Good Candidate for a Breast Lift?
A breast lift is designed for women seeking a more elevated and naturally shaped breast contour.
You may be an ideal candidate for Mastopexy if you:
- Notice sagging, loose skin, or changes in breast position
- Feel your breasts appear elongated, flattened, or have lost volume
- Have stretched or enlarged areolas or downward-facing nipples
- Are in good overall health and able to undergo surgery safely
- Have realistic expectations about the results and recovery process
- Do not smoke, or are willing to stop before and after surgery to support optimal healing
Your surgeon will evaluate your breast structure, its impact on your appearance and overall quality of life, and work with you to develop a surgical plan that aligns with your individual goals.
It is important to note that a breast lift improves shape and position, but it does not significantly increase breast size. You can choose to combine your breast lift procedure with breast implants for added volume.

Types of Breast Lift
A mastopexy is performed using a range of specialized techniques to lift and reshape the breasts. Each approach is carefully selected based on the extent of sagging and the desired outcome, ensuring symmetrical results.
The different types of breast lifts include:
- Traditional or anchor breast lift – This procedure offers a comprehensive breast lift for patients with moderate to severe sagging. It involves incisions around the areoles, vertically down the breast, and along the breast crease, allowing for the most dramatic lift and reshaping.
- A vertical or lollipop breast lift – This technique includes making an incision around the areolas and a vertical line down to the breast crease. It is ideal for mild to moderate sagging, allowing significant reshaping with a more limited incision pattern.
- Crescent lift – It is a minimally invasive breast lift technique that involves a small incision along the upper half of the areola. It is best suited for mild sagging, providing a subtle lift with minimal scarring.
- Donut or periareolar lift – This method involves a circular incision around the entire areola for more noticeable reshaping and lifting. It is most suited for mild to moderate sagging and can also reduce the areola sizes while maintaining a natural-looking result.
Each technique helps restore a more uplifted, balanced, and youthful breast contour. Your surgeon will recommend the most appropriate approach, based on your anatomy and aesthetic goals, to achieve harmonious, seamless results.

How Long Will My Breast Lift Last?
While the results of a breast lift are long-lasting, they are not permanent. Factors such as aging, gravity, weight fluctuations, and lifestyle choices can gradually affect the shape and position of the breasts over time.
The following can help preserve your results and support long-term outcomes:
- Following a healthy lifestyle
- Avoiding smoking
- Keeping a stable weight through a balanced diet and regular exercise
With proper care, you can enjoy lasting improvements in breast shape and firmness for many years. In some cases, minor revision procedures may be considered over time to help retain a more youthful appearance.
How Much Does a Breast Lift Surgery Cost?
A breast lift surgery is an investment in both appearance and confidence, and the cost varies from person to person depending on the type of breast lift you have chosen and the complexity of the procedure.
Other factors that can influence the final price include:
- The surgeon’s experience and expertise
- Type of breast lift technique
- Hospital or facility charges
- Your geographical location
- Anesthesia
- Medication
- Post-surgical garments, such as a surgical bra or compression garment
Considering these factors, the exact cost is best determined during a personalized consultation with your surgeon, who will provide a detailed estimate based on your individual goals and treatment approach.
Is Breast Lift Covered by Insurance?
A breast lift is considered an elective, cosmetic procedure that is performed to enhance appearance and not because it is a medical necessity. For this reason, its cost will not be covered by insurance, and patients are responsible for the full cost of the procedure out of pocket.
At Millennial Plastic Surgery, we understand that paying for a breast enhancement procedure, especially when it is combined with other body procedures, out of pocket, can be difficult. We provide flexible payment plans and third-party financing options to make this procedure more accessible and affordable for you.
However, there are rare exceptions where a breast lift may be covered by insurance. This can occur if the procedure is part of breast reconstruction after breast cancer surgery, or if it is performed alongside a medically necessary breast reduction due to issues such as chronic back or neck pain or persistent skin rashes.
In some cases, coverage may also be considered if breast sagging leads to severe physical symptoms that cannot be managed through other treatments. You will need strong medical documentation, and prior approval from your insurance provider before planning your surgery surgery.
