What is a breast lift?
A breast lift, or mastopexy, is a surgical procedure designed to lift and improve the shape of the breasts for a more youthful and proportionate appearance. Whether due to pregnancy, breastfeeding, weight changes or the natural aging process, this procedure seeks to improve breast contour.
It's important to note that breast lift surgery involves visible scarring, especially during the early stages of recovery. While Dr. Rodriguez uses advanced techniques to minimize scarring as much as possible, scarring is an inevitable part of this procedure.
Why choose a breast lift?
It's ideal for people looking for a firmer and rejuvenated breast appearance. This surgery goes beyond addressing problems at the surface level by remodeling and repositioning breast tissue for long-lasting results.

What to expect during the procedure
Personalized consultation and planning
During the initial consultation, Dr. Rodriguez will listen to your aesthetic concerns, evaluate your breast shape, skin elasticity, and health to design a personalized surgical plan that fits your goals.
The surgical procedure
On the day of surgery, general anesthesia will be applied. The procedure includes repositioning the breast tissue, removing excess skin, and relocating the nipple and areola to achieve a firmer and more harmonious contour. If a larger volume or a more rounded shape is desired, it may be necessary to place implants. This decision is made during the initial consultation, based on your objectives
Recovery and aftercare
After surgery, you can go home the same day. It's normal to feel swelling or discomfort at first, but they get better in a few weeks. Dr. Rodriguez will give you clear instructions and will follow up on your recovery. Most resume light activities in a week and return to their normal routine in about six weeks.
Recovery Schedule
What to Expect After Your Breast Lift
Every stage of the recovery process is key to achieving safe and natural results. With Dr. Rodriguez's guidance, you'll know exactly what to expect, how to take care of yourself, and when to resume your activities with confidence.
- First week: rest and initial recovery
Rest with controlled movement is key to good recovery. Swelling and bruising are common, but most patients can return to mild activities in about a week. - Weeks 2 to 4: Gradual recovery
As the swelling and bruising subside, you'll start to see results. You can resume work and moderate activities, avoiding strenuous exertion or pressure on your chest. - Month 1 and beyond

It's normal to have questions. Here we solve the most common ones.
Will a breast lift leave scars?
Yes, a breast lift involves incisions that leave scars. While these scars are highly visible during the early stages of recovery, they fade significantly over time with proper care. Dr. Rodriguez takes every precaution to strategically place the incisions and minimize their appearance.
Does a breast lift change the size of my breasts?
Depending on the patient's wishes and the surgical possibilities, it is possible to change the size of the breasts. During the consultation, this will be a topic to discuss with Dr. Jorge Rodríguez.
Will a breast lift affect my ability to breastfeed?
While a breast lift preserves most of the breast tissue, there is a possibility that it may affect breastfeeding. If you plan to breastfeed in the future, discuss this with Dr. Rodriguez during your consultation.
Can a breast lift be combined with other procedures?
Yes, a breast lift is often combined with other body shaping procedures.
Are the results of a breast lift permanent?
While a breast lift provides lasting results, factors such as aging, gravity, pregnancy, and weight fluctuations can affect breasts over time.
