Breast lift (or mastopexy) is a cosmetic surgery procedure that focuses on enhancing the contouring and shape of your breasts through an “uplift”. This lift usually removes any extra skin and occasionally tissue around your breasts to give them a more youthful appearance and reverse sagging, while also reducing the proportions of your areolas. Compared to full-on breast augmentation, mastopexy is a simpler (and thereby safer) method to ensure fuller, better-shaped breasts. However, it still requires proper consultation with a plastic surgery expert for a hassle-free procedure. At our clinic for breast lift plastic surgery in Birmingham, we frequently get patients requesting a breast lift, and we leave no stone unturned in guaranteeing their complete safety and satisfaction.
In terms of breast resizing, mastopexy works towards achieving the ideal proportions you desire for your breasts. Some patients opt for a breast enlargement/implant along with an uplift, in which case the lift is performed first and allowed to settle down. Then, the breast enlargement is done at a second stage – based on the desired size by either fat transfer or an implant after all health parameters are conducive to the procedure.
Why Breast Lift Is Important
At our clinic offering breast lift plastic surgery in Birmingham, the most common cause we hear among patient’s is that they want to reverse the effects of sagging and skin drooping in the region. This is usually a result of pregnancy and breast feeding, or drastic weight gain/loss. It is completely natural for the skin to lose its elasticity and texture with age, and mastopexy procedures help reverse that ageing. Breast lifts are also requested by patient’s who seek to test the waters with breast contouring before committing to a breast enlargement procedure either with an implant or fat transfer.
Whatever be your requirement, our expert staff led by Mr. Jag Jagadeesan are with you to provide effective breast lift plastic surgery in Birmingham, for your complete peace of mind and wellbeing.
Breast Lift Procedure
In general, breast reduction is performed under general anaesthesia to alleviate any pain and discomfort during the procedure.
Frequently Asked Questions
Who performs breast lift surgery in Birmingham?
Mr Jag Jagadeesan (GMC 5208914, FRCS Plast, BAAPS member) is a consultant plastic surgeon offering breast lift (mastopexy) in Birmingham at Spire Little Aston Hospital, Hopwood Clinic, The Westbourne Centre and The Vesey Private Hospital. He has over 22 years of surgical experience.
What is the difference between a breast lift and breast reduction in Birmingham?
A breast lift (mastopexy) reshapes and repositions the breast without significant tissue removal — it addresses drooping rather than size. A breast reduction removes tissue to reduce breast size and also lifts the breast. If your concern is primarily drooping with adequate size, a lift is appropriate. Both can be combined if size and drooping are both concerns.
How much does a breast lift cost in Birmingham?
Breast lift surgery in Birmingham with Mr Jag Jagadeesan costs approximately £5,500 to £8,500. This includes consultation, surgery, anaesthesia, overnight stay and follow-up appointments. Initial consultations are available from £150 at his Birmingham clinics.
Can a breast lift be combined with implants in Birmingham?
Yes. Where both drooping and loss of volume are concerns, Mr Jagadeesan can perform breast lift with augmentation in a single procedure. This combination addresses shape, position and volume together. Suitability for combined surgery is assessed at consultation based on individual anatomy.
What is recovery like after a breast lift in Birmingham?
Most patients take 2 to 4 weeks off work. A supportive bra is worn for 6 weeks. Strenuous activity is avoided for 6 to 8 weeks. Final breast shape emerges at 3 to 6 months as swelling resolves. Mr Jagadeesan's team provides full post-operative instructions and follow-up care.
Will my breast lift results last permanently in Birmingham?
The reshaping of breast tissue is long-lasting, but results can be affected by significant weight gain, weight loss or future pregnancy. Maintaining a stable weight and completing your family before surgery helps preserve long-term outcomes. Ageing and gravity continue to affect the breasts over time.
What scarring should I expect after a breast lift in Birmingham?
Breast lift surgery produces permanent scarring around the areola and vertically downward to the breast fold. The extent of scarring depends on the technique used. Mr Jagadeesan positions incisions to be concealed by underwear and a bra. Scars typically fade significantly over 12 to 18 months with appropriate scar care.
Am I a suitable candidate for a breast lift in Birmingham?
Good candidates are women with drooping breasts caused by pregnancy, breastfeeding, weight loss or ageing, who are at a stable weight, non-smoking and not planning further pregnancies. Mr Jagadeesan assesses individual anatomy, degree of ptosis and skin quality at consultation to determine the most appropriate technique.
How can I reduce the swelling post-surgery?
Some degree of swelling is normal after a mastopexy. To cope with the swelling, a well supported bra and anti-inflammatory pain medications are a viable option.
When can I see the results of the procedure?
Your mastopexy results should be visible around a couple of months after the surgery is conducted. We will be conducting routine check-ups to ensure all is in order, so rest assured!
Am I supposed to sleep a certain way after the procedure?
Yes, to reduce the risk of unnecessary strain on the operated region, please sleep on your back with ample support for your back.
