What a Breast Lift Can Do for You
A breast lift (mastopexy) is about more than aesthetics—it’s about restoring your self-image. Women choose this procedure for many personal reasons, but the benefits often include:
A more youthful, uplifted breast shape
Restored firmness and contour lost after pregnancy or weight loss
Better symmetry between the breasts
Nipple repositioning for a more natural placement
Improved fit in clothing and swimwear
Renewed body confidence
This procedure does not significantly change breast volume, but you can combine it with implants if you also want to add fullness.

Minimizing Scars Without Compromising Results
One of the most common concerns about breast lift surgery is scarring. Dr. Ablavsky uses precise surgical techniques to reshape the breast while keeping incisions as discreet as possible.
Depending on your anatomy and goals, he may recommend one of several incision patterns —including periareolar (around the nipple), vertical (lollipop), or anchor-shaped incisions. Each technique is selected carefully to maximize your results while limiting visible scarring.
Over time, most breast lift scars fade significantly, and with Dr. Ablavsky’s meticulous closure methods and aftercare guidance, patients are often surprised at how minimal their scars appear.

" ... I have had nothing short of a wonderful experience with Dr. Ablavsky and the sweet women in his office … I have gone from very droopy/saggy uneven breast from breastfeeding five children and the fluctuations that come with that, to symmetrical perky voluminous breast that seem to only change for the better the further out I heal."
