A breast lift (mastopexy) is a cosmetic surgical procedure that elevates and reshapes the breasts and nipples for a more youthful and perky appearance. When the breast and nipple position move downward, breasts may appear saggy and aged, a condition known as ptosis. This typically happens to women due to factors such as weight loss, aging, pregnancy, genetics, or breastfeeding.

Dr. Rodriguez selects the most appropriate breast lift technique for your anatomy, carefully reshaping the breast tissue and tightening the surrounding skin. She typically reduces the size of the areola to achieve a more proportionate appearance in relation to the size and shape of the breast after it is lifted. Dr. Rodriguez often utilizes innovative tools such as DuraSorb® and GalaFLEX™ to reinforce internal support and help maintain beautiful results over time. Mastopexy incisions are closed with dissolvable stitches, and you will be sent home in a soft bra.
A mastopexy typically takes 2 to 3 hours and is performed under general anesthesia as an outpatient procedure, meaning you can return home on the same day of your surgery.
Dr. Rodriguez customizes your breast lift using one of the following techniques:
If the nipple only needs to be moved up slightly, a periareolar incision, also known as a “donut breast lift,” may be an option. This involves a scar around the edge of the areola only. However, Dr. Rodriguez rarely performs this technique because the scar tends to widen over time, which also causes the areola to enlarge.
This breast lift involves a scar around the edge of the areola and from the lower part of the areola down to the crease under the breast. Commonly referred to as a “lollipop” incision, Dr. Rodriguez typically uses this technique for patients with mild sagging.
A wise mastopexy, or “anchor lift,” is the most common type of mastopexy Dr. Rodriguez performs. It leaves the same scar as a vertical lift, but with the addition of a discreet scar in the crease under the breast. It’s a preferred approach when a moderate to significant amount of skin needs to be removed to improve breast position and shape.

Yes, vertical breast lift incisions typically leave visible scars in the shape of an anchor. However, Dr. Rodriguez utilizes advanced scar management protocols, including Sylke® sheets and Biocorneum® scar treatment gel to help support smooth healing and minimize visibility.
Dr. Rodriguez applies Brijjit on the incision at the time of surgery and again 3 to 4 weeks after the procedure. Brijjits are pain-free to apply and wear, as they adhere gently to the skin and remain in place due to their built-in adhesive. While many women are nervous about scars after a breast lift, they usually fade quite nicely over time.
To prepare for a breast lift, it’s essential to follow Dr. Rodriguez’s detailed preoperative guidelines. This usually includes quitting smoking at least 6 weeks beforehand, refraining from taking ibuprofen and aspirin 7 to 14 days leading up to the surgery, and avoiding alcohol in the weeks before your procedure.
The results of a breast lift typically last anywhere from 10 to 15 years, but individual factors, such as aging, weight fluctuations, and lifestyle choices, may influence longevity. While breast tissue may continue to change over time, many women find they still enjoy a more youthful breast appearance for many years.
Breast lift surgery is frequently combined with other procedures, such as aumento de senos with implants or injerto de grasa o revisión mamaria to address cosmetic or medical breast concerns. A breast lift can also be combined with a abdominoplastia (abdominoplasty) or liposucción como parte de un proyecto integral maquillaje de mamá.
Many women breastfeed successfully after a mastopexy. Dr. Rodriguez recommends waiting about 6 months after you finish breastfeeding before considering breast lift surgery. She encourages you to openly discuss your future breastfeeding plans during your initial consultation.
