Breast Lift in Atlanta
At Artisan Plastic Surgery in Atlanta, we personalize every breast lift procedure we perform. A breast lift can raise and firm the breasts as well as resize and reposition the nipple/areolar complex, but it’s not a one-size-fits-all procedure. Some women prefer subtle results, while others want a noticeable lift and youthful look. We can also deliver a bit of a reduction as well, or incorporate breast implants for a size boost. Our all-female staff and highly experienced plastic surgeons are here to listen and provide results you’ll love.
Breast lift basics
Mastopexy, or breast lift surgery, raises and reshapes sagging breasts by removing excess skin and repositioning the breast tissue to a higher position. Our goal is to give your breasts a firmer, rounder, and more youthful contour, rejuvenating your figure. We can help with concerns including sagging, lack of firmness, or nipples that are too low or point downward.
There are a number of breast lift techniques and incision options; which is right for your will depend on your breasts as well as your specific goals. Essentially, the length and location of scars will depend on the amount of excess skin we need to remove to achieve your desired results; we will discuss our plan in detail with you. The good news is that breast lift scars fade in time and are easily concealed in all typical bathing suit tops.
Breast lift recovery
You’ll need a friend to drive you home after surgery; also plan for a few days of help around the house as you will need to limit your movements (especially in the upper body) during the initial healing period. We encourage frequent, light movement as soon as you feel up to it, but generally recommend waiting 3 to 4 weeks before resuming more vigorous exercise than walking.

Most of our patients return to office work and their regular routine one week after surgery, granted they refrain from heavy lifting or straining. Your Artisan plastic surgeon will confirm when it is OK to return to your exercise routine or physical labor.

Additionally, if you’ve combined breast lift surgery with a body procedure such as a tummy tuck, you’ll likely need to plan for more recovery time. To ensure you are well-informed, we will provide personalized, specific recovery instructions for your chosen procedure at your consultation, and review them with you prior to surgery.
