Modern breast implants are designed for long-term use. In many cases they can remain in place for many years without replacement. Regular check-ups with a doctor help monitor their condition.

Mastopexy with Implants
Mastopexy with implants combines breast lifting and volume enhancement, allowing restoration of shape while creating a more defined contour.
Mastopexy with implants is a plastic surgery procedure that combines a breast lift with breast augmentation using implants. During the operation, breast tissues are lifted, the position of the areola is corrected, and an implant is placed to restore or increase volume. This combined approach allows improvement of breast shape, correction of sagging tissues, and creation of more balanced body proportions.
About the service
Mastopexy with implants is a surgical procedure that combines breast lifting with breast augmentation. The procedure is designed to correct tissue sagging and restore breast volume that may decrease over time.
Changes in breast shape may occur due to pregnancy, breastfeeding, significant weight fluctuations, or natural aging processes. In such cases the breasts may lose both volume and firmness.
Combining a breast lift with implant placement allows the surgeon to reposition the tissues, restore volume, and create a more defined breast contour.
Indications for mastopexy with implants
This procedure may be recommended when both breast shape and volume require correction.
The most common indications:
• sagging breast tissues
• loss of breast volume after pregnancy or breastfeeding
• combined loss of breast shape and volume
• breast asymmetry
• desire to improve body proportions
During the consultation, the plastic surgeon evaluates tissue condition and determines the optimal surgical plan.
How the surgery is performed
Mastopexy with implants is performed in an operating room under general anesthesia. During the procedure, excess skin is removed, the breast tissues are repositioned, and the areola is corrected.
After that, an implant is placed to restore or increase breast volume. Incisions are carefully planned to ensure postoperative scars remain as discreet as possible.
The duration of the surgery depends on the amount of correction required and the individual characteristics of the patient.
Individual surgical planning
Before mastopexy with implants is performed, a detailed consultation with a plastic surgeon takes place. The doctor evaluates breast shape, skin condition, the degree of tissue sagging, and other anatomical characteristics.
Based on this evaluation, implants of the appropriate size and shape are selected. Individual planning helps achieve a natural and harmonious result.
Indications for mastopexy with implants
Mastopexy with implants is performed when breast sagging is combined with loss of volume. The procedure may be recommended after pregnancy, breastfeeding, or significant weight loss. It may also be performed to correct breast asymmetry and improve body proportions. The final decision about surgery is made after consultation with a plastic surgeon.
Contraindications for mastopexy with implants
Contraindications may include acute infectious diseases, blood clotting disorders, or severe chronic conditions. The surgery is also not performed during pregnancy or when active inflammatory processes are present in the treatment area. Before the procedure, the patient undergoes a medical examination to assess possible risks.
Preparation for mastopexy with implants
Before surgery, a consultation with the doctor and necessary examinations are performed. The patient may be advised to undergo laboratory tests, ultrasound examinations, or other diagnostic procedures. Some time before surgery the doctor may recommend limiting smoking and avoiding certain medications. Following these recommendations helps prepare the body for surgery.
Recovery after mastopexy with implants
After surgery patients are advised to wear special compression garments and limit physical activity. During the first days swelling or discomfort may occur. These symptoms gradually decrease as the tissues heal. The final result develops over several months.

Frequently asked questions about mastopexy with implants
Mammoplasty
How mastopexy with implants differs from breast augmentation
During classic breast augmentation, the main goal is to increase breast volume. Mastopexy with implants combines volume enhancement with lifting of the tissues. This approach allows surgeons not only to enlarge the breasts but also to correct their position.
Will the breasts look natural
Modern implants and surgical techniques allow surgeons to achieve a natural-looking breast shape. Proper selection of implant size and shape plays a key role. That is why consultation and planning are very important stages.
When will the results be visible
Initial changes can be seen immediately after surgery. However, the final result develops gradually as swelling decreases and the tissues adapt to the implants. The final outcome is usually evaluated after several months.
Will there be scars after surgery
Since the procedure involves surgical incisions, scars are a natural part of the healing process. However, the placement of incisions is carefully planned so that scars remain as discreet as possible. Over time scars usually become lighter.
Does the surgery affect breastfeeding
In most cases mastopexy with implants does not affect the ability to breastfeed. However, much depends on the surgical technique and the individual characteristics of the patient. This topic is discussed with the doctor during consultation.
