About Breast Reduction & Uplift
Breast reduction and uplift surgery, also known as mastopexy with reduction, is a cosmetic procedure aimed at reshaping and resizing the breasts. This surgical technique is designed to address issues such as overly large breasts, sagging, asymmetry, or discomfort caused by heavy breasts. During a breast reduction and uplift surgery, excess breast tissue, fat, and skin are removed to achieve a more proportionate and youthful breast contour. The procedure also involves lifting the breasts to a higher position on the chest, creating a firmer and more lifted appearance.Many women opt for this surgery to alleviate physical discomfort associated with large breasts, such as back, neck, and shoulder pain. Additionally, breast reduction and uplift surgery can enhance the overall appearance of the breasts, providing a more balanced and aesthetically pleasing silhouette.

Free Online Consultation
Send photos and describe your concerns (sagging, size, discomfort). Our surgeons recommend whether a lift, reduction, or both is right for you, with an initial price estimate.
Travel & Pre-Op Assessment
On arrival, blood tests and a final in-person consultation confirm your surgical plan and desired size/shape.
The Procedure
Takes 2–3 hours under general anesthesia — excess skin is removed, breast tissue reshaped and repositioned (and reduced in volume, if needed).
Recovery in Istanbul (Days 2–5)
You'll wear a surgical bra continuously. Most patients stay 5–6 nights before flying home.
Recovery at Home
Desk work is possible from week 2. The surgical bra is worn for 6 weeks; upper-body exercise resumes gradually from week 6–8.
Results Timeline
Initial shape is visible immediately; final results settle over 3–6 months as swelling fully resolves and scars mature.
Breast Uplift & Reduction FAQ
What's the difference between a lift and a reduction?
A breast lift (mastopexy) repositions sagging breast tissue and removes excess skin without significantly changing size. A reduction removes breast tissue and skin to decrease size and weight, often relieving back/neck/shoulder discomfort. Many patients combine both in one procedure.
Will there be visible scars?
Yes — typically an anchor-shaped or lollipop-shaped scar around the areola and down the breast, fading significantly over 12–18 months. Technique is chosen based on the degree of correction needed.
Can I combine this with implants?
Yes — if you want both a lift and more volume, implants can be added during the same procedure (lift with augmentation).
Will breast reduction affect breastfeeding?
Some techniques preserve milk ducts and sensation better than others. Discuss your future breastfeeding plans with your surgeon so the technique can be tailored accordingly.
How many nights do I need to stay in Turkey?
We recommend a minimum of 5–6 nights for the procedure, initial recovery, and a follow-up check before flying home.
Am I a Good Candidate?
✓ Good candidates typically have:
- Sagging breasts, loss of shape, or nipples pointing downward
- Overly large breasts causing back, neck, or shoulder pain
- Good general health, non-smoker or willing to pause
- Realistic expectations about scarring and final shape
⚠ May need further evaluation if you have:
- Plans for future pregnancy or breastfeeding (better to discuss timing)
- Active breast disease or abnormal mammogram findings
- Uncontrolled diabetes or clotting disorders
- Unstable weight (better to wait until weight stabilizes)
