Breast Lift
The Basics
Breast Lift Surgery is a procedure designed to address sagging skin and loss of volume to the breasts.
Unlike a traditional Breast Augmentation (that creates fullness and breast volume), a Breast Lift procedure includes the excess skin being cut away from above, below and around the nipple and areola. The skin will be stretched taut when re-joined.
Treatment Options
Cosmos Clinic offers two treatment options: Vaser Liposuction Breast Reduction/Lift or the Mastopexy. For a substantial lift we advise Mastopexy (traditional surgical lift) with our plastic surgeon. For a moderate lift in women with good skin we advise the Vaser Liposuction Breast Reduction and Lift.
Breast Lift Costs
Vaser Liposuction Breast Reduction prices vary depending on your overall situation and expectations.

Top Breast Lift Questions
How does a Surgical Breast Lift work?
Breast lift, also known as Breast Ptosis Correction or Mastopexy, takes approximately two hours. It is performed under general anaesthesia or deep sedation – depending on the extent of the procedure . Unlike a traditional Breast Augmentation (that creates fullness and breast volume), a Breast Lift procedure includes the excess skin being cut away from above, below and around the nipple and areola. The skin will be stretched taut when re-joined. The pattern followed by the surgeon is that which will cause the breast to be lifted and allow repositioning of the nipple. This breast surgery can give a more lifted, youthful appearance to the chest area. Loss of nipple sensation, although common in Breast Reduction surgery, is not expected, nor is breast-feeding prevented. Often a lift is combined with a Breast Reduction surgery or a Breast Enlargement surgery, to give the best results.
Will I be left with scars after a Surgical Breast lift?

How do I know which treatment option is best for me?
It is important to determine what type of results you are looking for and to have realistic expectations. A consultation is recommended to discuss all your questions and concerns and to establish which treatment option will suit you best. When selecting a treatment option, it is also important to note that swelling and bruising might occur post operation depending on our treatment plan.
