Breast Lift in Aventura, FL

A natural, lifted, youthful breast shape—without needing implants.

A breast lift, also known as mastopexy, is a surgical procedure designed to raise and reshape sagging breasts by removing excess skin and repositioning the breast tissue and nipple.  Many women choose a lift after weight changes, breastfeeding, aging, or when implants no longer sit correctly. As a board-certified female plastic surgeon, Dr. Baotram Tran understands how breast shape affects confidence, clothing fit, posture, and feminine silhouette.

While some patients combine a lift with implants or fat transfer for added volume, others choose a lift alone to restore natural fullness and projection without adding size.  See pre-op and post-op photos of breast lift without implants. For patients with older implants, we may recommend breast implant removal or exchange during the same surgery.

At our Aventura, Florida practice, Dr. Tran performs advanced breast lift techniques focused on natural shape, symmetry, and long-lasting results.

We proudly serve patients from Aventura, Fort Lauderdale, Miami, Sunny Isles, Hallandale Beach, and throughout South Florida.

What Is a Breast Lift (Mastopexy)?

A breast lift restores a more youthful breast position and contour without significantly changing breast volume. It is commonly chosen after pregnancy, breastfeeding, weight loss, or aging.

A breast lift can:

  • Elevate sagging breasts

  • Improve breast shape and firmness

  • Reposition the nipples to a more youthful height

  • Reduce stretched skin and asymmetry

A breast lift is frequently combined with breast augmentation for patients who desire both lift and added volume.

Breast Lift With or Without Implants — What’s the Difference?

Lift Only:
✔ Keeps natural size
✔ Tightens and reshapes tissue
✔ Best when you like your current cup size

Lift + Implants or Fat Transfer:  Fat transfer is ideal for women who want subtle, natural volume instead of implants.  Other patients who are not a fat transfer candidate and wants more volume will need breast augmentation with implants.
✔ Adds upper-pole fullness
✔ Improves cleavage
✔ Enhances roundness

Most common volume choices:

  • Modest implant size (250–300cc)

  • Fat grafting (200–300cc per breast)

Types of Breast Lift Techniques

The incision pattern used for a breast lift depends on the degree of sagging and desired outcome.

Periareolar Breast Lift

Best for mild sagging with minimal excess skin.

Vertical (Lollipop) Breast Lift

Addresses moderate sagging and reshapes the breast for improved projection.

Anchor (Wise-Pattern) Breast Lift

Used for significant sagging and excess skin removal.

Your technique is selected during consultation to optimize both shape and scarring.

Am I a Candidate for a Breast Lift?

You may be a good candidate if you:

  • Have sagging or deflated breasts

  • Experience nipple position below the breast crease

  • Are in good overall health

  • Have stable weight

  • Have realistic expectations

Patients who desire increased volume may benefit from combining mastopexy with breast implants.

Breast Lift Recovery

Most patients return to light activity within 1–2 weeks. Swelling continues to improve over several months as the breasts settle into their new shape.

Breast lift surgery may also be performed as part of a Mommy Makeover for comprehensive post-pregnancy rejuvenation.

✨ What Is an Endoscopic Brow Lift? ✨

Have you noticed your eyebrows sitting lower than they used to, making you look tired, angry, or older than you feel?

An endoscopic brow lift is a minimally invasive procedure designed to elevate the brows and smooth forehead lines, creating a more refreshed and youthful appearance.

✔️ Small hidden incisions placed behind the hairline 
✔️ Less scarring compared to traditional brow lift techniques 
✔️ Lifts drooping brows and opens up the eye area 
✔️ Softens forehead wrinkles and frown lines 
✔️ Natural-looking results without changing your facial expression

Using a tiny camera called an endoscope, Dr. Tran can precisely reposition the brow tissues through small incisions, resulting in a quicker recovery and a more youthful, rested appearance.

The goal isn’t to make you look different—it’s to help you look like a refreshed version of yourself.

Your eyes are often the first feature people notice—and one of the first areas to show signs of aging.

Blepharoplasty, also known as eyelid surgery, is a procedure designed to remove excess skin and fat from the upper and/or lower eyelids. It can help improve a tired, heavy appearance while creating a more refreshed, youthful look.

Benefits of blepharoplasty may include:
✨ Reduced under-eye bags
✨ Smoother, more youthful eyelids
✨ Improved upper eyelid contour
✨ A brighter, more rested appearance
✨ Enhanced vision when excess upper eyelid skin interferes with sight

Whether performed on the upper eyelids, lower eyelids, or both, blepharoplasty can create natural-looking rejuvenation while preserving your unique features.

Breast Lift vs. Breast Implants — what’s the difference? 👙✨

A breast lift (mastopexy) is designed to lift and reshape the breasts by removing excess skin and repositioning the breast tissue and nipples to a more youthful position. This procedure is ideal for patients experiencing sagging, stretched skin, or loss of shape after pregnancy, weight loss, or aging.

Breast implants, on the other hand, are used to increase volume and fullness. Implants can enhance size, improve symmetry, and restore lost upper pole fullness.

In many cases, patients may benefit from a combination of both procedures to achieve a lifted, fuller, and more balanced result.

The best option depends on your anatomy, skin quality, goals, and desired outcome. A personalized consultation is the best way to determine the right approach for you. ✨
