Implant breast lift is a combined aesthetic surgery that restores both shape and fullness to sagging and volume-lost breasts. In this procedure, the breasts are lifted and reshaped with silicone implants to achieve a younger and fuller appearance. With a surgery plan tailored to the individual, natural and aesthetically satisfying results can be achieved.
Implant breast lift surgery is a combined aesthetic surgical procedure designed for women experiencing both volume loss and sagging in their breasts. The goal of this procedure is not only to lift the breasts but also to add fullness. Over time, factors such as aging, childbirth, breastfeeding, or weight loss can cause breasts to sag and appear deflated. A lift alone cannot compensate for volume loss, and implant placement alone may not be sufficient to correct sagging. Therefore, combining both methods provides a more satisfying and aesthetic result in terms of both shape and size.
Implant breast lift surgery provides volume support to the breasts. It also helps the breasts appear younger and more dynamic. The surgeon creates a personalized plan based on the patient’s anatomical structure and expectations. Both implant selection and reshaping of the breast are important for achieving a natural look. The surgeon’s experience, the technique used, and adherence to the recovery process directly affect the success of the surgery.
Implant breast lift is a surgical approach planned according to the patient’s needs. It is performed to preserve natural contours, ensure symmetry, and achieve a long-lasting aesthetic appearance. After the operation, breasts gain a firmer, younger, and more balanced look. Patients may experience increased quality of life due to feeling more harmonious with their bodies. Our experienced team provides personalized solutions in this field, achieving high patient satisfaction rates.
Implant breast lift surgery is performed under general anesthesia. First, the patient undergoes a detailed evaluation; breast volume, degree of sagging, and skin elasticity are analyzed. Based on these evaluations, the surgeon decides on the size, type, and placement plan for the implant. The surgery consists of two main stages: lifting (mastopexy) and implant placement.
During the lift, excess skin is removed, and the nipple is repositioned to a more aesthetic location. Then, the implant is placed under the breast tissue or under the muscle. The decision about implant placement depends on the patient’s physiological structure and expectations. Implants are usually silicone-based and provide a natural fullness. Incision sites are planned around the areola (periareolar), vertical (a vertical line under the breast), or inframammary (under the breast fold) areas and are closed with aesthetic sutures. The operation duration typically ranges between 2 to 3 hours.

Implant breast lift surgery is especially suitable for women who have given birth, completed breastfeeding, and have experienced both volume loss and sagging in their breasts. Individuals whose breasts have lost fullness over time, whose nipples point downward, and whose skin elasticity has decreased are ideal candidates for this surgery.
It is also preferred for patients with asymmetrical breasts or those whose fullness cannot be adequately restored with lifting alone. It offers a dual solution for individuals who want to increase breast volume and improve shape simultaneously.
Candidates should be in good overall health, without serious chronic conditions that would prevent surgery, and should have realistic expectations about the surgical process. Smoking should be ceased or reduced due to risks that could negatively affect the healing process. Ultimately, the final decision is made after a physical examination and patient consultation by an expert surgeon.
The recovery process may vary depending on the technique used and the patient’s constitution. Mild swelling, pain, and tightness in the first days after surgery are normal. These can be easily managed with painkillers prescribed by the doctor. Arm movements should be restricted and heavy lifting avoided during the first week. Sudden movements and activities that strain the body should also be avoided to support healthy healing.
Patients should rest for the first few days, apply cold compresses, and wear a special support bra. The support bra provides comfort and helps keep the implants in the correct position. It also prevents strain on the stitches, reducing the risk of complications. Light daily activities can generally be resumed within a week. Sutures may be absorbable or removed on a date set by the doctor.
During recovery, sun exposure should be avoided, and the wound area kept dry and clean. Direct sun exposure may cause discoloration or make scars more noticeable. Therefore, it is recommended to use high SPF sunscreen for the first few months. Intense sports and swimming should be avoided for 4-6 weeks. The final aesthetic result may take several months to settle.
Our doctor manages the recovery period with individualized follow-up plans, supporting physical healing and maximizing aesthetic outcomes.
Implant breast lift surgery is a comprehensive procedure that combines many aesthetic benefits. The most important advantage is that the breasts are not only lifted but also gain volume. This results in a fuller and younger appearance compared to lift-only procedures.
Another advantage is improved symmetry of the breasts. The surgery refines breast contours and creates better body proportion balance. This positively impacts many aspects, from clothing choices to posture aesthetics. Patients report increased self-confidence and satisfaction with their physical appearance after surgery.
Personalized implant selection ensures a natural outcome. Different sizes, shapes, and implant structures allow the most suitable form for the body type. Addressing two problems (volume loss and sagging) in one operation enables quicker recovery and fewer surgeries to reach the goal.
The cost of implant breast lift surgery varies depending on the technique applied, implant type, surgeon’s experience, and the facility’s equipment. Since every patient’s anatomy and aesthetic expectations are different, the procedures applied vary as well.
In some cases, lifting alone is sufficient, while in others, special implants are needed for both lifting and volume enhancement. The quality of materials used, implant structure, and operation duration also influence the cost.
The most accurate pricing is determined after an individual examination and consultation with the patient. During this session, the patient’s needs are evaluated in detail, and a personalized treatment plan is created. We prioritize both aesthetic appearance and patient safety in our implant breast lift surgery services.
