What 4 Ottawa practices that list breast lift say on their own websites (checked September 2026); one that does not mention something may still offer it, so ask at your consultation.
A vertical breast lift uses a circular scar around the areola (same as the donut breast lift), in addition to a vertical scar down to the breast crease.
If you have lost a considerable amount of volume in your breasts, you may want to consider combining breast implants with your breast lift procedure.
A breast lift doesn’t alter the size of your breasts but can improve their shape and firmness. If you’re looking to increase volume, a breast lift can be combined with breast augmentation ( breast lift with implants ).
Medications are administered for your comfort during the surgical procedure. Breast lift is usually performed under a general anesthesia.
This is the most aggressive form of breast lift surgery and is frequently performed on patients who have undergone a large weight loss.
A mommy makeover combines a breast procedure with a tummy procedure. Usually we perform a breast lift (with possible addition of an implant) and an abdominoplasty (tummy tuck). Liposuction of the armpit areas and flanks is also often performed.
Some incision lines resulting from breast lift are concealed in the natural breast contours; however, others are visible on the breast surface.
Breast Lift generally runs CAD$9,520–CAD$19,040 per procedure, and each Ottawa clinic sets its own price. The biggest variables are the provider's experience level and the specific device or product used. Newer technology and senior injectors price at the upper end. Pricing is quoted in Canadian dollars (CAD). Request a consultation from any of our listed Ottawa clinics for a personalized quote.
Maintenance schedules vary. Most Ottawa providers recommend periodic refresh sessions every 6–12 months once optimal results are achieved.
Most patients wait 24 hours before applying makeup to avoid irritation on freshly-treated skin.
The simplest test is where your nipple sits relative to the fold beneath your breast. If it sits at or below that fold, a lift is what repositions it, and implants alone will not fix that. If your breasts sit high enough but have lost fullness at the top, implants restore that volume. Many patients want both, which is a combined augmentation with mastopexy, a longer operation with a slightly higher revision rate but a single recovery.
Scars depend on how much lifting is needed. A minor lift may need only a scar around the areola. Moderate lifting adds a vertical line from the areola to the fold, called a lollipop. Significant lifting adds a horizontal scar along the fold, called an anchor. Scars are permanent, red for several months, and typically fade to pale lines over one to two years. Any surgeon offering a significant lift with no scars is describing something else.
Most patients hold results for ten years or more, but skin continues aging and gravity does not stop. Weight fluctuation and subsequent pregnancy are the two things that most reliably undo a lift, which is why surgeons generally advise finishing childbearing first. Wearing good support and maintaining stable weight extends the result meaningfully.
Many patients can, though a lift carries somewhat more risk to milk ducts and nipple sensation than augmentation does, because the nipple is repositioned. If future breastfeeding matters to you, say so clearly at consultation, since technique choices can preserve more of the ductal system. And if you plan to have children soon, waiting is generally the better decision anyway.
Almost never as a cosmetic lift. Breast reduction, which removes tissue as well as lifting, is sometimes covered when documented neck, back, or shoulder symptoms meet a carrier's criteria. If you have both sagging and significant volume causing physical symptoms, ask the surgeon's office to explore reduction coverage rather than assuming the whole thing is out of pocket.
