Breast Lift Surgery in Seattle, WA
Sound Plastic Surgery in Seattle offers advanced breast lift surgery, also known as mastopexy, to help women restore a youthful, natural-looking breast contour. Many women experience sagging or drooping breasts over time, whether due to pregnancy, weight fluctuations, or the effects of aging. Our board-certified plastic surgeons, Drs. Cooper and Sattler, specialize in customized breast lift procedures that elevate and reshape the breasts, helping you regain confidence in your appearance.
What is a Breast Lift?
A breast lift is a cosmetic breast surgery procedure designed to lift and reshape the breasts by removing excess skin and tightening the surrounding tissue. The goal is to restore a firmer, more youthful contour without necessarily altering or changing the breast size. This procedure can also reposition the nipples and areolas for a more balanced, natural look. Many patients choose a breast lift to correct the effects of aging, weight loss, or post-pregnancy changes.
Is Breast Lift Surgery Right for Me?
You may be a good candidate for a breast lift if you are physically healthy, at a stable weight, and bothered by breasts that have lost shape or volume. Ideal candidates often experience stretched skin, downward-pointing nipples, or breasts that appear flat or elongated. Patients who have completed their family planning usually seek this procedure as part of a post-pregnancy or mommy makeover plan.
"His staff is wonderful, office is clean and inviting, Dr Sattler has a great bedside manor. Had my breast lift and augmentation recently. They are healing up great and look wonderful. Can't wait for Dr Sattler to do my lower body lift in November. If your looking for a great surgeon don't look any further Dr Sattlers best in the Seattle area."
What Are The Benefits of a Breast Lift Compared To Other Breast Augmentation Surgeries?
A breast lift can significantly improve the shape, firmness, and projection of the breasts. It can also improve breast symmetry, restore youthful positioning of the nipples, and enhance your overall figure. Many patients report an improvement in confidence, both in and out of clothing. The procedure can be performed on its own or combined with breast augmentation to enhance volume, or with breast reduction to reduce size and lift simultaneously.
What to Expect During Breast Lift Surgery
Breast lift surgery is performed on an outpatient basis under general anesthesia. During the procedure, the surgeon will make incisions based on your anatomy and aesthetic goals. Common patterns include those around the areola, vertically down the breast, or along the breast crease. Excess skin is removed, and the remaining tissue is reshaped to create a firmer, lifted contour. The nipples are repositioned, and the areolas may be resized to achieve a more proportionate appearance. The surgery typically takes two to three hours.
"I'd become healthy, active and spent over a year taking care of myself in every way. I wanted to be proud of my body in every way too. This just wasn't the case after breastfeeding 2 children and losing a significant amount of weight. I sought consultation from multiple, excellent plastic surgeons in the area and decided that a breast lift surgery with breast implants was the best decision for me."
Breast Lift Recovery Timeline
After surgery, patients typically return home the same day. Swelling, bruising, and discomfort are normal in the first few days and can be managed with medication and rest. Most patients return to light activities within a week and resume regular routines in about four to six weeks. Supportive garments are often recommended during healing to maintain the shape and support the results. Final results become increasingly visible as swelling subsides and incisions heal.
