Breast lift (mastopexy) is an aesthetic surgical procedure aimed at removing excess skin and tightening the surrounding tissue in order to restore the breasts to a higher, firmer, and more youthful position. Over time, due to factors such as pregnancy, breastfeeding, weight loss, the natural aging process, or the effects of gravity, breasts can lose their natural elasticity and shape. This procedure elevates the position of the nipples and areolas, reshapes the breast, and restores contours that complement your figure, providing a long-lasting solution for regaining confidence.
Preoperative and postoperative consultations
Before starting any treatment, a detailed consultation is required. During this appointment, our team of plastic surgeons dedicates full attention to your wishes, analyzing your body structure, skin quality, and breast anatomy in order to define your goals together. Postoperative examinations are an equally important part of our relationship with each patient. Through a series of follow-up appointments, the surgeon monitors the healing process, ensures proper recovery, and evaluates aesthetic progress. Our care does not end when you leave the clinic — we are here throughout every stage of follow-up to confirm that the results are fully aligned with the planned outcome.
Preparation for surgery
Proper preparation is the foundation of a successful procedure. At our clinic, the preparation process is designed to be as simple and stress-free as possible. All necessary laboratory tests are performed directly at our clinic shortly before the procedure, saving your time and ensuring complete medical supervision. You will also receive precise instructions regarding lifestyle, nutrition, and hygiene to help your body be in optimal condition. Our team is available to answer all your questions, so you can enter the day of surgery feeling relaxed and confident.
Type of anesthesia
Patient safety is our highest priority, which is why breast lift surgery is performed exclusively under general anesthesia. This approach ensures that you remain in a safe and pain-free sleep throughout the entire procedure. The anesthesia is administered by our experienced team of anesthesiologists, who monitor vital parameters from the moment you fall asleep until you wake up, ensuring minimal side effects and a smooth start to the postoperative recovery process.
The surgical procedure
The surgical procedure lasts between one and two hours, during which the most advanced surgical techniques for breast lifting are applied. Our surgeons work with exceptional precision, aiming for minimal and strategically placed incisions, while ensuring aesthetically refined suturing. Excess skin is removed, breast tissue is reshaped and lifted, and the nipple and areola are positioned in an anatomically ideal location. The goal is not only to change the position of the breasts but also to achieve a harmonious shape that looks natural.
Recovery after surgery
Recovery is a process in which you play an active role. After surgery, patients stay one night under the close supervision of our medical staff. After returning home, an essential part of recovery is wearing a special compression garment, which helps the tissue heal properly and reduces swelling. A return to everyday activities is possible after several days, while more intensive exercise is recommended after 4 to 6 weeks. It is completely normal to experience mild discomfort during the first few days — by following your surgeon’s instructions, your journey toward the desired appearance will be safe and smooth.
