Breasts That Sit Higher and Look Natural.
Gravity and time change things. Breastfeeding can leave a shape and position that feels unrecognizable. For some patients, their breasts never sat the way they wanted, even before kids.
Hundreds of before-and-after photos. Surgeon after surgeon compared. Months of scrolling through results, trying to find someone with a similar starting point who got results worth pursuing. And underneath all of it, the same worry most patients share: heavy scarring and results that look "done."
Breasts that sit higher, look natural, and feel proportional.
Choosing clothes without thinking about how things sit. Going braless in the right top and feeling good about it. Results natural enough that people notice something looks great, not that surgery happened.

A Breast Lift Built Around Each Patient's Goals.
A breast lift (mastopexy) is not just about going up. Whether the goal is restoring position after pregnancy, correcting asymmetry, reducing areola size, or combining a lift with modest volume, the result should look like it belongs on the body.
- Customized to each patient's anatomy: The surgeon evaluates tissue, skin elasticity, and nipple position to recommend the right lift technique. Patients leave the consultation knowing exactly what to expect, including the type of incision and where scars will be placed.
- Scars that fade, not define: Scarring is the most common concern patients share. Techniques are designed to minimize visible scarring, and most scars fade significantly within the first year. Scar placement is reviewed during consultation so there are no surprises.
- Option to add volume: Some patients want their current size, just lifted. Others want modest fullness restored. If implants or fat transfer would complement the lift, the surgeon will walk through all options.
Dr. Truong and Dr. Lin customize every lift based on anatomy, goals, and how each patient wants to feel.

Book With Dr. LinWhy Patients Choose Us
"I am so incredibly happy with my decision to get my breast lift with implant. My boobs look so natural and perky, I am so confident, and I don't have any back pain. My scars overall are starting to look nearly nonexistent. If you are still on the fence, do it."
"First-time surgery trust. I've heard people say not to commit to a big surgery without shopping around, but Dr. Lin was the first doctor I ever had a cosmetic surgery consultation with and I'm so lucky and happy with my decision. I wanted a breast lift and augmentation, and Dr. Lin gave me a lot of information and helped me through the whole process."
"Dr. Truong guided me into the best fit and answered all my questions. Even after I put down a deposit, I got nervous about having a breast lift and implants done, and he was happy to see me again before surgery just to put my mind at ease. My surgery went without a hitch, with almost no bruising, limited pain, and results that were everything I expected. A year later, I couldn't imagine looking any better."

Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, all breast lift procedures leave some degree of scarring, but scars typically fade significantly over time. Dr. Truong and Dr. Lin place incisions along the natural creases of the breast, where they can be easily concealed. With precise closure techniques that minimize tension, most scars become faint and difficult to notice. Scar treatments are also available to help further improve the appearance of incisions as they heal.
Individual results may vary.
Most patients describe breast lift discomfort as mild to moderate, and many are comfortable without pain medication within a few days. Chicago Breast & Body Aesthetics uses a long-acting, extended-release bupivacaine that numbs the surgical area for 48 to 72 hours, so patients experience minimal discomfort during the initial recovery period. The care team provides clear post-operative instructions and is available by call or text if any concerns arise during healing.
Most patients retain normal nipple sensation after a breast lift. Some temporary numbness or increased sensitivity is common immediately after surgery, but this typically resolves during the healing process. The risk of permanent sensation loss is low. Dr. Truong and Dr. Lin use precise techniques specifically designed to preserve the nerve pathways to the nipple during repositioning.
Most patients enjoy breast lift results for 10 years or longer. Breasts will continue to change naturally over time due to aging, gravity, and hormonal shifts, which may gradually affect results. Maintaining a stable weight and a healthy lifestyle can help the lifted shape last as long as possible.
Individual results may vary.
Most patients return to work within one week and resume full activity by 8 to 12 weeks. Day 1: walking the same day or the next day. Week 1: rest and attend the first post-operative visit. Weeks 4 to 6: no submerging in water or swimming. Weeks 8 to 12: gradual return to a regular workout routine. 6 months: final results, including breast settling and skin softening, become fully visible. The surgeon provides personalized post-operative instructions, and coordinators are available by call or text throughout recovery.
Individual recovery timelines may vary.
Breast lift surgery at Chicago Breast & Body Aesthetics starts at $10,995*, with pricing that varies based on the technique used and whether implants are included. All pricing is transparent and all-inclusive with no hidden fees. Flexible financing is available through CareCredit, Cherry, and Alphaeon. Contact the practice for a complimentary consultation and a personalized quote.
*Final quotes may vary based on the personalized surgical plan.
Most patients can still breastfeed after a breast lift, though results depend on the surgical technique used. Because the nipple-areola complex is repositioned during the procedure, there is some risk of affecting the milk ducts. Dr. Truong and Dr. Lin use pedicle techniques designed to preserve as much ductal tissue as possible. Patients who plan to breastfeed in the future should mention this during the consultation so the surgeon can tailor the approach.
