Breast Lift

The Procedure

Breast lift surgery at Prescott Plastic Surgery and Med Spa is performed with the assistance of either general anesthesia or intravenous sedation, depending on the extent of your procedure and your individual needs. Once you’re comfortable, Dr. Prescott carefully creates incisions according to the pattern discussed during your consultation.

Through these incisions, she removes excess skin and reshapes the underlying breast tissue to create a firmer, more youthful contour. The areola and nipple are repositioned to a higher, more aesthetically pleasing location. If you desire a smaller areola, excess areolar skin can be removed at this time as well. The remaining breast skin is then carefully brought together and tightened to support the new shape. Liposuction is often used to optimize breast and under arm contour.

Lastly, Dr. Prescott meticulously closes the incisions with absorbable sutures. The entire procedure typically takes two to three hours.

How Much Does a Breast Lift Cost?

The price of a breast lift at Prescott Plastic Surgery and Med Spa is individualized based on factors like the surgical technique required, the extent of correction needed, whether it is combined with other procedures, and the type of anesthesia used. During your consultation with Dr. Prescott, she will evaluate your anatomy and aesthetic goals to provide you with a personalized cost estimate that reflects your specific needs and desired outcome.

Breast Lift FAQs

Will I have visible scars after a breast lift?

Breast lift surgery does result in permanent scars, though their visibility depends on your incision pattern and how your body heals. Dr. Prescott places incisions strategically in areas that can be concealed by most bras and swimwear, and scars usually fade significantly over 12 to 18 months.

Will I lose nipple sensation after surgery?

Some patients experience temporary changes in nipple sensation, which typically resolve within a few months. Permanent changes are relatively uncommon with modern surgical techniques.

Should I wait until after I'm done having children to get a breast lift?

While you can safely have a breast lift before having children, future pregnancies will likely alter your results, since the breasts change during pregnancy and breastfeeding. Dr. Prescott recommends waiting until you have completed your family to maximize the longevity of your results.

Patient Testimonials

"I can honestly say that I am impressed"

“I have had Ultherapy treatment and I can honestly say that I am impressed. Each treatment brings an immediate tightening effect and then over the next few months you see your skin continue to improve. It is excellent at stimulating the deeper skin layers. The collagen in my face gets a major boost – and so does my confidence level! This is a treatment that actually produces real and noticeable results. I now have a maintenance treatment on a yearly basis. The treatment is completely tolerable with no downtime. In my opinion, there are not too many treatments available that can give you impressive results and no time out for healing, you’re good to go. You should approach the treatment with realistic expectations and afterwards be pleasantly surprised. It is not a miracle worker, but it just might be the next closest thing. My experience has been completely positive and I love to get a big bang for my buck. Ultherapy is an amazing treatment and a very good investment. Aging is inevitable, but who says you can’t do it gracefully and at a slower rate. I will also say that it is incredibly important to have it performed by a trusted provider who is well trained with this procedure. Abby has both the credentials as well as the experience with this treatment and I trust her without reservation. If you are considering Ultherapy, make an appointment with Abby today.”
