Scarring is part of any breast lift procedure, but surgical techniques are used to minimize visibility. Scars typically fade over time and may continue to improve with proper post-operative care.

Breast Lift Surgery in Winston-Salem, NC

Q: Will a breast lift change my size?

Not necessarily. A breast lift improves breast shape and position but does not increase volume. During your consultation, your surgeon will discuss whether combining a breast lift with implants is appropriate for your goals.

Q: How long do results last?

Many patients enjoy long-lasting breast lift results, especially when maintaining a stable weight and healthy lifestyle. Although aging and gravity continue, the improvement in breast shape and position is typically significant and enduring.

Q: Is this procedure painful?

Most patients report soreness rather than sharp pain after breast lift surgery. Discomfort is typically well managed with prescribed medication and generally improves during the first week of recovery.

Q: What is the difference between a breast lift and breast augmentation?

A breast lift reshapes and raises sagging breasts by removing excess skin and repositioning breast tissue. Breast augmentation increases breast size and fullness using implants or fat transfer. These procedures can often be combined to improve both breast shape and volume.

Restore Shape, Confidence, and Lift

A Personalized Approach to Breast Lift Surgery

Over time, factors like pregnancy, weight fluctuations, and aging can lead to stretched skin, sagging, and loss of breast firmness. A breast lift (mastopexy) raises and reshapes the breast, restoring a more youthful, natural-looking contour without changing your overall size.

At Forsyth Plastic Surgery in Winston-Salem, our board-certified plastic surgeons personalize every breast lift to match your anatomy, goals, and desired level of correction. Whether you’re concerned about sagging, nipple position, or asymmetry, we’ll guide you toward the right surgical plan.

If you’re happy with your breast size but not the shape, a lift alone may be the ideal solution. For those seeking additional volume, a breast lift can be combined with augmentation to achieve fuller, lifted results.

Am I a good candidate for a breast lift?

You may be a good candidate for a breast lift if your breasts have sagged due to aging, pregnancy, breastfeeding, or weight changes, and you want to restore a firmer, more youthful shape. Ideal candidates are in good overall health, maintain a stable weight, and have realistic expectations. A consultation at Forsyth Plastic Surgery can determine the best treatment for your goals.
