While exercise and diet can tone and shape the body, no amount of toning can restore projection and firmness to breasts that have lost their structure and elasticity. In a breast lift procedure, triple board-certified Houston plastic surgeon, Dr. Henry Mentz removes excess skin to reshape and restore a firmer, uplifted contour to the breasts. Many patients choose to combine a breast lift with breast augmentation surgery to add fullness and further enhance the shapely appearance of the breasts.
Breast implants alone do not lift breasts. If you are low-breasted and want to improve breast sagging then you would benefit from a breast lift. Dr. Mentz’s innovative technique allows patients to achieve the following: reposition the nipple-areola higher on the breast mound, tighten breast tissue, and improve overall breast shape.
Once lifted, if your breasts require added volume, saline or silicone implants can be added at the same time to improve the shape and gain fullness. All stitches are dissolvable and covered with surgical tape for 3 weeks post-op.
Breast lift surgery is a 2-3 hour outpatient procedure that is performed while a patient is under general anesthesia. Dr. Mentz performs surgery at his private AAAASF-certified SurgiCentre facility in Houston, Texas, where patients are monitored and cared for by board-certified physician anesthesiologists and Dr. Mentz’s highly skilled team of medical professionals.
For women who would like to add volume to their breasts, as well, a breast lift procedure may be combined with breast augmentation in a single procedure using an innovative technique that Dr. Mentz and his colleagues developed.
With this technique, saline implants are placed within the breasts during a breast lift and inflated with saline approximately two weeks later in a quick office procedure. Staging the procedures in this way supports the proper healing of breasts, while allowing women to reduce the costs of having two separate surgeries.

A breast lift firms and raises the breasts to give you a more youthful, attractive contour. Over time, a woman’s breasts lose their youthful shape and firmness due to factors such as gravity, pregnancy, breastfeeding, and weight fluctuations. A breast lift procedure may be a good option for you if you have one or more of the following conditions:
Breast lift surgery has a very high satisfaction rate among patients who have undergone the procedure. While the results are typically long-lasting, gravity and aging will continue to effect the appearance of the breasts over time.
As millions of satisfied breast lift patients have discovered, you don’t have to live with the disappointment of sagging, shapeless breasts. A breast lift, or mastopexy, can markedly rejuvenate your body’s contour by restoring youthful lift, projection, and firmness to the breasts. While a lift alone may achieve your aesthetic goals, many women choose to combine a breast lift with breast augmentation in a single surgery to give their breasts the fuller, shapelier curves they desire. This rewarding procedure will restore the youthful beauty of your breasts and allow you to wear tops, swimsuits, and lingerie with greater confidence.
