What is a Breast Lift?
A breast lift (mastopexy) surgically repositions and reshapes the breast tissue to correct sagging (ptosis) caused by pregnancy, breastfeeding, weight loss, or aging. It removes excess skin and elevates the nipple-areola complex to a more youthful position.
A breast lift does not significantly change breast size — patients who want both a lift and added volume typically combine the procedure with implants. The surgery is performed under general anesthesia and takes 2 to 3 hours. Most patients return to light activity in 1 to 2 weeks and full activity in 4 to 6 weeks.
Scars are permanent but designed to be hidden in natural breast folds. The extent of scarring depends on the degree of lift required (periareolar, lollipop, or anchor incision pattern). Results last many years but can be affected by future pregnancy, breastfeeding, or significant weight changes.
How much does a Breast Lift cost in San Francisco?
A breast lift in San Francisco typically starts at $13,650, with most procedures ranging from $13,650 to $24,640 total including surgeon fees, anesthesia, and facility costs.

What to ask your provider
- Are you board-certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery (ABPS)?
- What incision pattern do you recommend for my degree of ptosis — periareolar, lollipop, or anchor?
- Should I consider combining a lift with implants, or is a lift alone right for my goals?
- Can I see before-and-after photos of your own mastopexy patients at 6+ months post-op?
- What is the full all-in cost — surgeon, anesthesia, facility, and post-op care?
- If I plan future pregnancies, how will that affect results?
Frequently asked questions
How much does a breast lift cost in San Francisco?
A breast lift in San Francisco typically starts at $13,650 and ranges up to $24,640 all-in. The total includes surgeon fee, anesthesia, and facility costs. Combining a lift with implants adds to the total.
What is the difference between a breast lift and breast augmentation?
A breast lift repositions and reshapes existing tissue to correct sagging — it does not significantly change size. Breast augmentation adds volume using implants but does not correct significant drooping. Many patients combine both procedures for lift plus added size.
What are the scars from a breast lift?
Scars are permanent. The pattern depends on the degree of lifting needed: periareolar (around the nipple only) for minor ptosis; lollipop (nipple to fold) for moderate; anchor (nipple, vertical, and horizontal fold) for significant sagging. Scars fade over 1 to 2 years but never fully disappear.
How long does a breast lift last?
Results typically last 10 to 15 years, though the natural aging process continues. Future pregnancy, breastfeeding, and significant weight changes can affect long-term results. Some patients choose a revision lift after 10 to 15 years.
What is recovery from a breast lift like?
Most patients return to light activity in 1 to 2 weeks and resume full activity in 4 to 6 weeks. You will wear a surgical bra continuously for 4 to 6 weeks. Avoid heavy lifting and strenuous exercise during recovery.
