Breast Lift Surgery in Des Moines, Iowa: Rediscover Your Confidence
Are you feeling self-conscious about sagging or uneven breasts? Breast lift surgery, also known as mastopexy, is a highly effective procedure to restore a youthful, lifted appearance to your breasts. At Des Moines Plastic Surgery™, we specialize in helping women achieve their desired look with personalized breast lift procedures tailored to meet your needs.
What Is a Breast Lift?
A breast lift is a cosmetic procedure designed to reshape and reposition sagging breasts by removing excess skin and tightening the surrounding tissue. This procedure can:
- Lift and firm sagging breasts.
- Reposition the nipple and areola for a more natural appearance.
- Improve breast symmetry and shape.
- Enhance confidence and satisfaction with your appearance.
Unlike breast augmentation, a breast lift does not increase the size of your breasts but focuses on creating a more youthful contour. For those looking to add volume as well, breast implants can be combined with a lift in a single procedure.
Who Is a Candidate for a Breast Lift? (Mastopexy)
If you are experiencing any of the following concerns, a breast lift might be the ideal solution for you:
- Breasts that have lost shape or volume due to aging, pregnancy, breastfeeding, or weight fluctuations.
- Nipples that point downward or sit below the breast crease.
- Stretch marks or excess skin on the breasts.
- Asymmetrical breasts.
Good candidates should also be in overall good health, non-smokers, and have realistic expectations about the results of the procedure.

How Does Breast Lift Surgery Work?
Breast lift surgery typically involves the following steps:
Anesthesia: General anesthesia is administered for a pain-free experience.
Incisions: Depending on the degree of lift needed, Dr. Robbins may use one of three incision patterns: around the areola, vertically from the areola to the breast crease, or horizontally along the breast crease.
Reshaping and Lifting: Excess skin is removed, the breast tissue is reshaped, and the nipple and areola are repositioned for a natural look.
Closing Incisions: Incisions are meticulously closed to minimize scarring.
The procedure generally takes 2-3 hours, and patients can usually return home the same day.
Recovery and Results
Most patients experience swelling, bruising, and mild discomfort during the first few weeks after surgery. Dr. Robbins will provide detailed aftercare instructions and schedule follow-up visits to monitor your progress. You’ll notice an immediate improvement in the shape and position of your breasts, with final results becoming apparent as swelling subsides.
