What Is a Breast Lift Revision?
A breast lift revision, also known as revision mastopexy, is a secondary procedure performed to improve or correct the outcome of a prior breast lift. Whether due to the natural effects of aging, pregnancy, weight changes, or dissatisfaction with a previous result, revision surgery is designed to refine the shape, position, and appearance of the breasts. Please note that we offer cosmetic revision surgery only—we do not offer reconstructive revision. This procedure is highly individualized and focuses on achieving better balance, projection, and lift—tailored to your current anatomy and aesthetic goals.

Breast Lift Revision Overview
Consultation and Preparation
Your revision journey begins with a thorough consultation at Forma Plastic Surgery. During this visit, your surgeon will review your surgical and medical history, evaluate your current breast condition, and listen to your concerns. You’ll have an open discussion about your goals and what you hope to improve or change from your original lift. Proper planning is critical for revision surgery, which often requires careful assessment of previous incisions, scar tissue, and tissue integrity. You may be asked to complete lab work, stop smoking, or adjust medications before your procedure. Your surgeon will ensure you are fully informed and confident moving forward with a plan tailored specifically to your anatomy and needs.
What Happens During a
Breast Lift Revision Procedure?
The surgical approach for breast lift revision depends on your individual needs and previous surgery. It typically involves removing excess skin, reshaping breast tissue, lifting the nipple-areola complex, and revising old scars for a cleaner, more aesthetically pleasing outcome. If asymmetry or implant-related concerns exist, additional steps may be taken to correct those as well. Techniques may include anchor, lollipop, or crescent incisions—your surgeon will determine the most effective method based on your goals. Some patients choose to enhance their revision results with implant exchange, removal, or body contouring procedures like liposuction or tummy tuck. Combining treatments can provide more comprehensive and satisfying aesthetic results.

Recovery After Breast Lift Revision
Recovery from breast lift revision is similar to your initial mastopexy but may vary based on the complexity of your case. After surgery, expect mild to moderate swelling, bruising, and temporary discomfort, which can be well-managed with prescribed medications and proper support garments. You will be given detailed instructions for wound care, activity limitations, and garment usage to ensure optimal healing. Most patients feel well enough to return to light work or daily tasks within 1–2 weeks. Exercise and heavier activity can typically be resumed after 4–6 weeks, depending on your surgeon’s guidance. As the swelling subsides over time, your final breast shape and position will gradually reveal itself, typically over the course of several months. Please note that recovery varies from patient to patient.
Results and Expectations
Initial improvements are often noticeable soon after surgery, with continued enhancement over the following weeks and months as swelling reduces and tissues settle. Breast lift revision can restore a more youthful, elevated contour and correct previously unsatisfying results. When performed by an experienced surgeon using the right technique, the outcome is natural-looking and long-lasting. While gravity and aging will continue to affect the breasts over time, your improved shape and confidence can be maintained for years with healthy habits and stable weight.
Ideal Candidate for Breast Lift Revision
The ideal candidate for Scottsdale breast lift revision is someone who has previously undergone a breast lift and is no longer happy with the results. This could be due to recurrent sagging, asymmetry, visible scars, stretched skin, or dissatisfaction with nipple position or breast shape. Candidates should be in good general health, non-smokers (or willing to stop), and maintain a stable weight. Most importantly, they should have realistic expectations and a clear understanding of what revision surgery can accomplish. A consultation with the team at Forma Plastic Surgery will help determine whether revision mastopexy is right for you.
Please note: Breast lift revision is a highly specialized procedure that requires careful consideration. Not all patients are accepted. Candidacy is determined on a case-by-case basis, and a consultation is required to evaluate your candidacy.
