BENEFITS OF A BREAST LIFT
Embrace a More Youthful You
Reclaim the breasts you remember. Rejuvenate your breasts and restore a more lifted and defined appearance, reminiscent of how they looked and felt before pregnancy, breastfeeding, or aging. A breast lift restores firmness and enhances tactile sensation, bringing back a sense of youthful vitality.
Rediscover Your Confidence
Feel more confident and empowered in your own skin, whether you’re looking in the mirror, working out, or being intimate. A firmer and perkier breast contour can improve your overall body image and help you feel more positive about your appearance in everyday life.
Reduce Breast Irritation
Experience relief from discomfort caused by skin-on-skin contact beneath the breasts. A breast lift can reduce or eliminate this irritation, improving your comfort and quality of life.
Enhanced Nipple Appearance
Rejuvenate the nipple-areolar complex. A breast lift can correct drooping, stretched out, or downward-pointing nipples, creating a more natural and youthful projection.
HOW IS A BREAST LIFT PERFORMED?
During your consultation with Dr. Aycock, she’ll listen to your desires and create a personalized plan. The procedure involves carefully removing excess skin and reshaping the breast tissue to create a more youthful contour. If you also wish to increase the size of your breasts, you may have implants or fat grafting performed at the same time. The procedure, typically outpatient and performed under general anesthesia, takes 2-4 hours. Your comfort and safety are Dr. Aycock’s top priorities. You’ll receive detailed aftercare instructions to help you heal beautifully.
Candidates for
BREAST LIFT
If sagging breasts are impacting your confidence or comfort, a breast lift may be a good option. Dr. Aycock will assess your individual circumstances, including skin quality and lifestyle, to determine if a breast lift is right for you. While age is a consideration, it’s your overall health that matters most. It’s also important to be aware that future pregnancies can potentially affect your results.

Enhancing Your Results:
Complementary Procedures
A breast lift can be a powerful way to rejuvenate your breasts, but sometimes, combining it with other procedures can help you achieve even more comprehensive results. Dr. Aycock will discuss your options and recommend the best approach for your individual goals. These complementary procedures may include:
- Breast Augmentation: If you desire both a lift and increased volume, breast implants or fat grafting can be added during your breast lift procedure. This combination addresses both sagging and size concerns.
- Post-Implant Lift: A breast lift can also be performed after implant removal to address sagging that may have developed over time.
- Body Contouring: For those who have experienced significant weight loss, body contouring procedures can address excess skin and improve overall body proportions, complementing the results of a breast lift.
- Mommy Makeover: A breast lift is often a key component of a “mommy makeover,” which combines multiple procedures (such as tummy tuck, liposuction, and breast enhancement) to restore a pre-pregnancy figure.

FAQ ABOUT BREAST LIFT
Am I Too Old For A Breast Lift?
The good news is that there is no set age limit for a breast lift. Women in their 50s, 60s, and beyond are excellent candidates for the procedure, provided they are in good health and have realistic expectations. The question “Am I too old for a breast lift?” often comes from societal notions about beauty and aging. However, the reality is that it’s never too late to prioritize your confidence and well-being. A breast lift is not about defying age—it’s about embracing it with grace and empowerment. If sagging breasts have affected your confidence or comfort, a breast lift can be a rejuvenating solution. Your age should not be a barrier to looking and feeling your best.
How Much Does a Breast Lift Cost?
A breast lift procedure, performed under general anesthesia in a surgical setting, generally starts at approximately $12,300, with the final cost influenced by the complexity and extent of your unique needs. We believe in complete transparency, so during your consultation, Dr. Aycock’s team will provide a detailed quote and discuss all financial options, including our financing solutions, to ensure you feel confident moving forward.
What Is Recovery Like After Breast Lift?
Recovery from a breast lift varies from patient to patient but generally involves some discomfort, swelling, and bruising in the days following the surgery. Most patients can resume light activities within a few days and return to work within a week, although strenuous activities should be avoided for several weeks.
Are the Results of Breast Lift Permanent?
The results of a breast lift (mastopexy) are long-lasting, but they aren’t entirely permanent. While the procedure can significantly improve the shape, position, and firmness of your breasts, the natural aging process, along with factors like weight fluctuations, pregnancy, and breastfeeding, can eventually affect the long-term outcome. Your breasts may experience some degree of sagging or changes in shape over time. However, the improvements achieved through a breast lift will generally last for many years, and most women enjoy the benefits of the procedure for a significant period. Maintaining a stable weight and healthy lifestyle can help prolong your results.
