Breast Lift in Millsboro, DE

Breast Lift Surgery

A breast lift, also known as a mastopexy, reshapes and raises sagging breasts, giving the breasts a more youthful, lifted appearance. The procedure typically includes one or more enhancements: repositioning the nipple, elevating the breast mound, and improving the contour of the entire breast. Whether you’re dealing with volume loss after pregnancy or seeking a refreshed silhouette, a breast lift delivers lasting, confidence-boosting results.

At Peninsula Plastic Surgery in Millsboro, DE, our board-certified plastic surgeons—Dr. Perrotta, Dr. Luppens, and Dr. Kerestes—bring unmatched expertise to every breast lift surgery performed in our AAAHC-accredited, state-of-the-art surgical suite within our Salisbury office. Most procedures are completed on an outpatient basis, allowing patients to recover comfortably and privately at home.

For those seeking additional enhancement, breast lift with implants can be performed during the same procedure. If large or heavy breasts are contributing to discomfort or imbalance, a breast reduction may be a better option. Patients interested in less invasive methods may explore the non surgical breast lift or trending options like the vampire breast lift.

The Breast Lift Procedure

Our surgeons perform breast lift surgery under general anesthesia or IV sedation. The approach used depends on your breast anatomy and the level of correction needed.

Donut lift: circular incision around the areola
Lollipop lift: incision around the areola and vertically downward
Anchor lift: adds horizontal incisions along the breast fold

Each method allows for reshaping the nipple-areolar complex, removing excess skin, and recontouring the breast. For patients desiring volume, an implant may be placed. Others may opt for a lift only or explore the vampire breast lift or laser breast lift techniques.

Following surgery, the area is dressed and supported with a surgical bra.

Post-Op Recovery

You will return home the same day wearing your dressings and support garment.

Medication can relieve mild to moderate discomfort
Resume light activity in 5–10 days
Full breast lift recovery time takes several weeks
Follow-ups will be scheduled to monitor healing

Our surgeons use advanced techniques to minimize breast lift scars, placing incisions in discreet locations. Over time, these scars fade significantly, especially with proper aftercare.
