Breast Lift (Mastopexy)
A refined, individualized approach to breast lift (mastopexy), designed to enhance your natural features with results that look and feel like you.
Overview
What is Breast Lift?
A breast lift raises and reshapes sagging breasts by removing excess skin and tightening the surrounding tissue. It restores a firmer, more youthful profile without necessarily changing your cup size.
Dr. Leppard’s approach prioritizes results that are refined, balanced, and true to each patient’s natural features. During your consultation he takes the time to understand what you want to achieve, then explains every option, tradeoff, and realistic outcome so you can make an informed decision.
To learn whether breast lift (mastopexy) is right for you, the best next step is a personal consultation.

FAQ
Breast Lift frequently asked questions
Does a breast lift make breasts bigger?
A breast lift raises and reshapes the breast but does not add significant volume. Implants can be added if you also want more fullness.
How long do breast lift results last?
Results are long lasting, though aging, weight changes, and pregnancy can affect breast shape over time.
Will there be scars?
Scars depend on the technique and are placed around the areola and sometimes on the lower breast. They fade significantly over the first year.
