Mastopexy, or a breast lift, is a body contouring procedure that raises and tightens the breasts by surgically trimming away loose skin and tightening the remaining tissue to produce a more youthful and defined look. This breast surgery is reserved for women who are experiencing breast sagging due to pregnancy, weight loss, or aging. Board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Brian Hwang in West Hills, CA implements the most advanced methods to perform mastopexy, giving you a perkier bust. If you want to learn more about how to address droopy, asymmetrical breasts, reach out to Brian Hwang, MD, Plastic Surgery to make an appointment.
What Are The Benefits?
At our West Hills, CA practice, many patients come to us unhappy with their breast shape after aging, pregnancy, or weight gain and loss. Breast lifts are a wonderful procedure for patients like this, offering them the following benefits:
- Perkier, younger-looking shape
- Ability to adjust size
- Elevation of breast to a more desired position on the chest
- Feel and look younger again!
Am I A Good Candidate for A Breast Lift?
You may come to Brian Hwang, MD, Plastic Surgery wanting breast augmentation using implants; however, after a physical exam, you may discover that breast lift surgery is better. The reason is due to the level of sagging that is shown. Breasts and nipples that point down usually need a lift to correct skin looseness and bring the breasts higher up on the chest wall. If you have nipples that droop downward and your breasts appear stretched, a mastopexy (breast lift) can dramatically help their appearance. If you are contemplating a breast lift, you should be physically healthy and at a healthy weight.
What to Expect from a Breast Lift
A breast lift is performed within about 2 – 4 hours while you are under general anesthesia. The method used for breast lift surgery typically falls within two categories: the inverted-T, known as an anchor technique, and vertical incisions. First, the incision is made, and any loose skin is excised along with breast tissue and fat. The skin left behind is then tightened, and the breasts are elevated so they appear younger and healthy. In most situations, the size of the areola is decreased to be symmetric with the new breast. After the procedure, you will be fitted with a medical compression bra to minimize swelling. Results are most noticeable after a few weeks.

My recovery was easy - results Best experience I have ever had with a surgeon. Im pretty versed in surgical procedures had a few in miami, however the care and communication I received with Dr. Hwang and his team is next level and the true definition of what the experience should be like. I received my medication, pillows, faja, foam boards all prior to surgery, I got a breast lift, fixed a prior bbl and high def lipo. My recovery so far has been easy as I am 5 days post op and moving around normally. My results are already amazing despite the swelling. If you want good communication, skill care and peace of mind, this is where its at!
I had a tummy tuck, 360 lipo and breast lift/reduction. I am extremely happy with my results. Not only am I happy with how I look but I feel great. No more back pain, bras cutting into my shoulder and my posture has improved as well. Aside from his craft, Dr Hwang made this experience so much easier. From the beginning, I felt very comfortable which was important for me. I could tell he takes pride in his craft and I knew I will be in good hands. Dr Hwang was patient, calm, and gave me detailed information. He called in the evening of my surgery to check on me and answered all my texts. Thank you Dr. Hwang!!!

Will my nipples be moved?
