Board-certified Breast Lift and Reduction Surgeon in Toronto

Breast Lift and Reduction

Restore a lighter, lifted shape with a breast lift and reduction. Whether relieving discomfort or refining contours, this procedure enhances both form and function.

Achieve Balance and Comfort

A mastopexy, or breast lift, is a procedure that elevates the breasts to a higher position on the chest while removing excess skin for a firmer, more defined shape. It reshapes the breast tissue and repositions the nipple for a more aesthetically pleasing look. When combined with an auto-augmentation it can give a look equivalent to having a breast implant, without requiring an implant. When combined with breast reduction, it alleviates discomfort caused by excess weight and enhances symmetry.

Breast Lift and Reduction: Your Questions, Answered

View All
What is breast lift and reduction surgery?

Breast lift and reduction surgery is a procedure designed to reshape, lift, and reduce the size of the breasts to create a more balanced, proportionate appearance. A breast reduction removes excess breast tissue and skin to alleviate discomfort caused by heavy, sagging breasts, while the lift component raises and reshapes the breasts for a more youthful contour.

This procedure is ideal for patients experiencing back, neck, or shoulder pain, difficulty with physical activity, or self-consciousness due to large or sagging breasts. Dr. Plant customizes each surgery to achieve natural-looking, proportional results that fit the patient’s body and lifestyle.

Am I a good candidate for breast lift and reduction surgery?

You may be a good candidate for a breast lift and reduction if you experience discomfort, physical limitations, or self-consciousness due to large, heavy, or sagging breasts. Many patients seek this procedure to relieve back, neck, and shoulder pain, reduce skin irritation from bra straps, or improve comfort during physical activity.

Ideal candidates are in good overall health, at a stable weight, and have realistic expectations about their results. During your consultation, Dr. Plant will assess your medical history, breast anatomy, and personal goals to develop a personalized surgical plan that enhances your comfort and confidence.

How long does a breast lift and reduction procedure take?

The procedure typically takes two to four hours, depending on the amount of tissue being removed and the degree of reshaping required. The surgery is performed under general anesthesia, and most patients return home the same day. Dr. Plant carefully tailors the procedure to create natural, symmetrical results while prioritizing patient safety and comfort.

What results can I expect from breast lift and reduction surgery?

A breast lift and reduction creates smaller, lighter, and more lifted breasts that are proportional to the body. Patients often experience relief from chronic pain and physical discomfort, improved posture, and greater ease in exercise and daily activities. Clothing and bras fit more comfortably, and many patients report feeling more confident and comfortable with their new shape.

Dr. Plant works with each patient to ensure the results align with their personal aesthetic goals while maintaining a natural, proportionate look.

How soon will I see results from breast lift and reduction surgery?

Results are visible immediately after surgery, but swelling and healing will temporarily affect the final outcome. Over the next three to six months, as the breasts settle into their final shape and incisions heal, the full results become more defined. Dr. Plant provides detailed aftercare instructions to support recovery and ensure optimal results

How long is the recovery period after breast lift and reduction surgery?

Most patients can return to light activities within one to two weeks, with full recovery taking about six weeks. Swelling and sensitivity are normal in the early stages, and patients should avoid heavy lifting and strenuous exercise until cleared by Dr. Plant. A surgical support bra is often recommended to aid healing and provide comfort during recovery.

At Lawrence Park Plastic Surgery, Dr. Plant and his team provide comprehensive aftercare support to ensure a smooth, comfortable recovery. This includes personalized guidance, detailed recovery protocols, and follow-up care to promote optimal healing and long-lasting results. From the moment your procedure is complete, you’ll have access to expert advice and hands-on support, so you can heal with confidence.

Are the results of breast lift and reduction surgery permanent?

The results of a breast lift and reduction are long-lasting, but natural aging, weight fluctuations, and hormonal changes can affect breast shape over time. Maintaining a stable weight and healthy lifestyle helps preserve results for many years.

Dr. Plant uses advanced techniques to ensure results remain proportionate and natural-looking, creating a balanced and lasting outcome.

Are there risks associated with breast lift and reduction surgery?

Breast lift and reduction surgery is safe and effective when performed by an experienced surgeon like Dr. Plant. However, as with any surgery, potential risks include scarring, temporary changes in sensation, minor asymmetry, or delayed healing.

Dr. Plant prioritizes patient safety and precision, using the most advanced surgical techniques to minimize risks and ensure optimal healing. During your consultation, he will discuss any potential concerns and how they are managed, ensuring you feel fully informed and confident in your decision.

Will my results look natural after a breast lift and reduction?

Many patients worry that a breast lift and reduction will leave their breasts looking unnatural or too small for their frame. The goal of this procedure is to create a balanced, proportional shape that complements your body while addressing discomfort from overly large or sagging breasts.

Dr. Plant takes a customized approach to ensure that your breasts maintain a natural appearance and feel, with careful attention to size, symmetry, and proportion. Most patients find that their results look refreshed and lifted rather than drastically different, helping them feel more comfortable and confident in both clothing and daily life.

How much does breast lift and reduction surgery cost in Toronto?

The cost of breast lift and reduction surgery varies based on the extent of tissue removal, complexity of the procedure, and individual patient goals. During your consultation, Dr. Plant will provide a detailed estimate after assessing your anatomy, medical history, and desired outcome.

While cost is a consideration, choosing an experienced and skilled surgeon ensures the quality, safety, and longevity of your results.

Can I combine breast lift and reduction with other procedures?

Yes, breast lift and reduction can be combined with other procedures for a more comprehensive transformation. Many patients choose to pair this surgery with liposuction for additional contouring or as part of a mommy makeover for full-body rejuvenation.

Dr. Plant customizes each surgical plan based on individual goals, ensuring safe, natural-looking results. During your consultation, he will assess your needs and recommend the best approach to achieve your desired outcome.
