What is a Breast Lift?

A breast lift, also known as a mastopexy, is a cosmetic surgical procedure designed to correct sagging and reshape the breasts. Over time, factors like aging, gravity, pregnancy, and significant weight changes can cause the skin to lose elasticity and the breast tissue to drop. This results in the nipples and areolas pointing downward and sitting below the crease of the breast.

The procedure involves removing excess, stretched skin, compressing the underlying breast tissue to create a firmer, more rounded silhouette, and repositioning the nipple and areola so they are properly centered and positioned at the most elevated point of the newly shaped breast. A mastopexy is often performed as a standalone procedure but may be combined with a breast augmentation.

Am I a Good Candidate for a Breast Lift?

A breast lift is an excellent option for women who are seeking to address issues of breast sagging or poor contour. During your personal consultation, Dr. Firouz will assess your anatomy and discuss your goals to determine if you are an ideal candidate.

You may be a good candidate for a breast lift in Beverly Hills if you:

  • Experience Breast Sagging: Your breasts have lost their youthful shape and firmness, causing the nipples to point downward or rest below the crease of the breast.
  • Have Loss of Volume: You wish to restore breast volume that has diminished due to factors like aging, pregnancy, or breastfeeding.
  • Have Stable Weight: You are at a stable, healthy weight and do not plan for any significant weight loss or gain in the future, as major fluctuations can impact your results.
  • Have Completed Childbearing: While not a strict requirement, most candidates have completed their family, as future pregnancies and breastfeeding can compromise the results of the lift.
  • Are in Good Health: You are a non-smoker and are generally healthy with no medical conditions that would impair healing.

The Mastopexy Procedure

A mastopexy is a highly customized surgical procedure tailored by Dr. Firouz to meet your unique aesthetic goals. This surgery is performed under general anesthesia at an accredited hospital or state-of-the-art surgical center in Beverly Hills and typically takes between one and three hours to complete. To begin, Dr. Firouz makes precise incisions, always opting for the smallest possible pattern that will effectively achieve the desired elevation and shaping.

Through these incisions, he removes any excess, stretched skin, tightens and reshapes the underlying breast tissue for better projection, and carefully repositions the nipple and areola to a higher, more youthful location. Once the new shape is finalized, the incisions are closed with sutures, and patients are typically able to return home immediately to begin the initial recovery process.

Breast Lift Incision Options

There are three primary breast lift incision options available, and the one you choose will have a major impact on your results. During your private consultation for mastopexy in Beverly Hills, Dr. Firouz will walk you through the options and help you select the right one. 

Anchor

Most breast lifts are performed using the anchor incision (sometimes called the inverted-T). With this approach, Dr. Firouz will create an opening around the areola, down the breast, and along the breast crease.

He recommends this technique to correct substantial sagging and when patients are getting another surgery (such as a breast reduction) simultaneously. The anchor incision allows for the greatest lift and maximum skin removal, but it also produces the most scarring.

Keyhole

The keyhole incision (also known as the vertical or lollipop lift) is slightly less intensive than the anchor technique and is highly versatile. For this opening, Dr. Firouz will make a precise incision around the nipple and down the front of the breast, stopping at the breast crease.

It is best for women with moderate sagging who need significant shaping but do not require the extensive skin removal of the anchor pattern. This approach produces moderate scarring but offers excellent correction and a significantly shorter scar than the anchor method.

Donut

The donut incision (also known as the periareolar lift) is the least invasive approach. The incision is made only around the areola. This technique is the ideal option for women with small breasts and minor sagging who primarily need slight nipple repositioning or mild reshaping.

Because the incision is entirely confined to the border of the areola, the primary benefit is that it results in very minimal, virtually imperceptible scarring that is often disguised by the color change between the areola and the surrounding skin.

Your Recovery

The recovery period immediately following your Beverly Hills mastopexy is a crucial phase, and Dr. Firouz’s team is dedicated to supporting you every step of the way. Immediately after surgery, your breasts will be wrapped in specialized bandages or a surgical bra to minimize movement and provide crucial support to the incisions. Some discomfort, swelling, and bruising are normal during the first few days, but we will ensure you have the necessary medication to effectively manage the pain. During the initial week, it is critical to prioritize rest, avoid any strenuous activity or heavy lifting, and limit arm movement. Most patients can return to light, non-strenuous desk work within five to seven days.

After the initial dressings are removed, you will be required to wear a special supportive bra continuously for several weeks to help reduce swelling and maintain the newly created shape. While light walking is encouraged to promote circulation, you should plan to avoid vigorous exercise, jogging, and upper body workouts for at least four to six weeks. Dr. Firouz and our staff will provide detailed post-operative instructions and schedule follow-up appointments to monitor your healing and ensure a full, comfortable recovery so you can enjoy your beautiful, lasting results.

I had absolutely no idea what to expect going into this experience of getting a breast lift and augmentation and was very nervous about it but Dr. Firouz and his staff made me very comfortable and I LOVE my results. I had severe sagging and a cup size difference between my two breasts and now they are like I’m 22 again! My husband calls him “The Boobie Whisperer” I highly recommend him and will return for any future procedure.
