A breast lift (mastopexy) reshapes and elevates breasts that have lost firmness or position due to pregnancy, breastfeeding, weight changes, or aging — without the need for implants if you're happy with your volume.
A mastopexy removes excess skin, reshapes the breast tissue, and repositions the nipple-areola complex to a higher, more youthful position. The result is firmer, rounder, more uplifted breasts.
A lift does not add volume — if you also want more fullness, it can be combined with augmentation in the same procedure. Dr. Chung discusses both options and helps you decide what matches your goals.
Common candidates include women who have finished breastfeeding, experienced significant weight changes, or simply notice their breasts have changed position over time.
Dr. Chung evaluates the degree of sagging and selects the ideal technique to restore a youthful, firm breast contour.
The nipple-areola complex is raised to a natural, youthful position appropriate for your anatomy.
Enlarged areolas can be reduced simultaneously to achieve more proportional, aesthetically pleasing appearance.
Breast tissue is reshaped internally for improved upper pole fullness and a more youthful contour.
Excess loose skin is removed for a firmer, lifted contour that maintains its shape.
When volume is also desired, augmentation mastopexy (lift + implants) is performed in a single procedure.
Different degrees of ptosis between breasts are corrected simultaneously for a balanced result.
Dr. Chung and his team accompany you throughout your entire recovery to ensure the best possible results.

In many cases yes, though the ability to breastfeed can be affected depending on the technique. This is discussed individually at your consultation.
