Factors such as aging, birth, breastfeeding, weight changes and gravity can cause sagging breasts. This situation causes both physical discomfort and aesthetic concerns. Breast lift surgery (mastopexy) provides a younger, upright and proportionate appearance by removing excess skin from sagging breasts and reshaping the breast tissue.
Breast lift is generally performed on patients who are over 18 years old and in good health. Depending on the degree of sagging, the procedure can be combined with a silicone prosthesis. The physician determines the most appropriate surgical method by evaluating breast size, tissue quality and the patient’s expectations.
The surgery takes approximately 2–3 hours under general anesthesia. In cases of mild sagging, only implant placement is sufficient, while in cases of severe sagging, the breast is shaped using different incisions on the nipple and lower parts. You may stay in the hospital for 1 day after the procedure; It is possible to return to light activities within 1 week and to normal life after 4-6 weeks.
Using a surgical bra, protecting incision scars, avoiding sun exposure and not skipping check-ups supports the healing process. Although the surgery has a permanent effect, factors such as future pregnancy, weight changes or aging may cause sagging again.
