There is no surgery that is permanent. That being said following any type of surgery, the result will take you back in time. In regards to Mastopexy alone your breasts will never sag quite as far as they did prior to the surgery and if you add an implant, the results will last even longer.
Very very variable
Hello, a full breast lift should last forever, if done properly, and if there is no drastic weight fluctuation on the patient's part. For further information, you can visit my website, at Drroya.com. Good luck!
Indefinitely
Skin responds to pressure by stretching. So no matter how tight and high your surgeon makes your breast lift, the skin will relax and the lift will be lost. However, the extent and timing of the relapse varies greatly. If you have heavy breasts you could be wasting your time and money unless you are also having a reduction. In that case, even if you lose some of the lift, your new size is permanent and you will be very happy. If you have smaller breasts the results will be a lot more long lasting, but the type of skin you have comes into play. If your skin stretches easily you are out of luck. Whatever the case, breast lifts are often over in a year or two.
Hello, thank you for your question.
Breast lifts are expected to last for 5 to 10 years although this varies due to a number of factors such as skin laxity, breast size, smoking, genetics, BMI changes over time, etc. The use of supporting devices like gala flex can prolong the results of a breast lift. You should consult with your plastic surgeon to determine whether you a candidate for a supporting device or not.

It can be for a lifetime. Say you are happy with the result, you need to be serious about taking care of the breasts and do not do anything to destroy the result, like gaining a lot of weight.
Hi there,
You should expect a breast lift to last about 10 years and maybe even a few years longer. The success of the lift will be dependent upon several factors: If you have major weigh fluctuations in either directions, the laxity of the skin may make the lift appear to droop. Maintaining your weight and wearing an appropriate supportive bra are easy ways to keep your lift fresh.
