Breast Lift in Cancun: Restoring Youthful Contours

Are your breasts showing signs of sagging, having lost their firmness or ideal position due to aging, pregnancy, or weight changes? A breast lift, also known as mastopexy, is a transformative surgical procedure. It addresses breast ptosis (sagging) by removing excess skin and tightening surrounding tissue. This reshapes and supports a new, elevated breast contour.

The goal is to restore firmness, improve symmetry and proportion, and regain a youthful appearance. A breast lift itself does not increase breast size; however, it can be combined with breast augmentation if added volume is desired. Dr. Arturo Valdez, a board-certified plastic surgeon and leading specialist in breast lift procedures in Cancun, offers personalized solutions. This includes the auto augmentation breast lift option, using your own tissue for fullness. Patients from the US, Canada, and locally trust Dr. Valdez for beautiful, natural-looking results.

Breast Lift Procedure: What to Expect

Step 1: Anesthesia

The procedure begins with local anesthetic and IV sedation to ensure your comfort throughout.

Step 2: The Incision(s)

Precise incisions are made, often in patterns around the areola, vertically, or in the breast crease, to allow for reshaping.

Step 3 – Reshaping and Lifting

Excess skin is carefully removed, and the underlying breast tissue is tightened and lifted to a higher, more youthful position. The nipple and areola complex may be reduced

Step 4 – Closing the Incisions

Incisions are meticulously closed with sutures, and surgical dressings are applied to support your new breast contour.

Step 5 – Recovery Time

Initial recovery involves swelling and bruising, with most patients able to return to light activities within 1-2 weeks.

Step 6 – The Results

Immediate lifting and reshaping are visible, with final, firmer contours emerging as swelling fully subsides over several months.

Frequently Asked Questions

While all breast lifts result in some scarring, incisions are strategically placed to be as discreet as possible (often around the areola, vertically, or in the breast crease) and tend to fade over time.

The results are long-lasting, providing significant improvement for many years, but natural aging, gravity, and significant weight fluctuations can gradually affect the breasts’ appearance over time.

Yes, a breast lift is frequently combined with breast augmentation (implants) for patients who desire both an uplifted position and increased volume or fullness.

The procedure is performed under local anesthesia with IV sedation, so you will not feel pain during the surgery; discomfort after is typically mild and managed with medication.

A breast lift primarily reshapes and elevates the breasts; it generally does not significantly increase or decrease their size, though they may appear smaller due to a more compact, lifted contour.

Initial recovery, with most swelling and bruising subsiding, typically takes 2-3 weeks, allowing a return to light activities. Final results emerge as healing continues for several months.

While many women can still breastfeed after a breast lift, the ability to do so can be unpredictable as some milk ducts or nerves may be affected during the reshaping process
