What is a Breast Lift?
A breast lift, or mastopexy, is a surgical procedure designed to elevate and reshape sagging breasts by removing excess skin and tightening surrounding tissue. Dr. Shamoun performs breast lifts to help patients:
- Rejuvenate breasts that have lost volume and firmness due to pregnancy, aging, or weight fluctuations
- Restore a more youthful, uplifted breast position

- Address drooping or pendulous breasts for a more natural, proportionate look

What to Expect After Breast Lift
Breast Lift Recovery and Results
Results from a breast lift are apparent immediately, with continued improvement as swelling subsides and healing progresses. The procedure restores a more youthful, uplifted contour and natural shape, often enhancing confidence and body image. Final results develop over several weeks as the breasts settle into their new position, with scars fading over time.
How to Support Your Healing and Maintain Results
Proper recovery after a breast lift is essential to protect your surgical results and promote smooth healing. Thoughtful postoperative care helps reduce swelling, supports incision healing, and allows the breasts to settle into a natural, lifted position. Under the care of Dr. John Shamoun, patients receive detailed guidance to ensure a safe recovery and long-lasting outcome.
Support: Wear your surgical or support bra exactly as directed to minimize swelling and maintain breast positioning.
Activity: Avoid strenuous movement, lifting, and upper-body strain during the early healing phase.
Incision Care: Keep incisions clean and dry while following all aftercare instructions carefully.
Sleep: Sleep on your back with your upper body elevated to help reduce swelling and tension on incisions.
Hydration & Nutrition: Maintain proper hydration and a balanced, nutrient-rich diet to support tissue repair.
Medication: Take all prescribed medications as instructed to manage discomfort and prevent infection.
Avoid: Smoking, alcohol, and heavy physical activity during early recovery.
Follow-Up: Attend all scheduled appointments to ensure proper healing and optimal results.
Typical Breast Lift Recovery Timeline:
Recovery after a breast lift follows a predictable surgical healing process, with gradual improvement over several weeks.
First few days
Mild to moderate swelling, tightness, and discomfort are normal. Rest is important, with light walking encouraged to promote circulation and healing.
7–10 Days
Swelling and discomfort begin to improve. Many patients feel comfortable performing light daily activities, though lifting and strenuous movement should still be avoided.
3–4 Weeks
Breast shape begins settling into a more lifted contour. Light lower-body exercise may resume with approval, while upper-body strain should still be limited.
6 Weeks
Many patients are cleared for full activity, including exercise. Swelling continues to subside, and the breasts soften and settle further.
3–6 Months
Final breast lift results become fully visible as residual swelling resolves, scars mature and fade, and the breasts stabilize in their new, natural, lifted position.
