A breast lift (mastopexy) is a surgical procedure designed to improve breast shape by lifting and reshaping sagging tissue. If you’re considering a breast lift in Antalya, the most important step is a personalised consultation—your anatomy, skin quality and goals determine the right plan.
Mastopexy focuses on restoring a firmer, higher breast position and improving contour. If loss of volume is a concern, your surgeon may also discuss breast augmentation options.
Suitability is always confirmed during an examination and medical history review.
Incision patterns depend on your anatomy and sagging degree. Some cases require periareolar incisions, while others may require vertical or anchor-type patterns. Scars typically mature over time; scar care instructions and sun protection help optimise appearance.
A breast lift can be combined with implants if volume loss is significant. In other cases, a combined breast reduction + lift may be recommended. The best approach depends on measurements and your desired shape.
| Time Period | What to Expect |
|---|---|
| First 48 hours | Rest, swelling and tightness are common. |
| Week 1 | Follow-ups, dressings, supportive bra use. |
| 7–14 days | Gradual return to daily routine (varies). |
| 3–6 weeks | Avoid heavy lifting; activity increases per advice. |
| 3–6 months | Shape settles; scars continue to mature. |
Total cost may vary depending on technique, hospital/anesthesia fees, and whether implants or reduction are included. For details, see breast lift pricing.
