Breast Lift (Mastopexy) in Guadalajara, Mexico
Breast shape evolves with life. Weight fluctuations, pregnancy, breastfeeding, and the natural aging process can all cause sagging, volume loss, and nipple descent. A breast lift (mastopexy) with Dr. Antonio García Rodríguez restores your breast contour to its ideal anatomical position—without exaggeration, without false promises, and without compromising who you are.

A breast lift (mastopexy) is a surgical procedure that Raise and change the shape the breast by removing excess skin, repositioning the areola-nipple complex and restructuring the internal tissue of the breast. The goal is not to enlarge the breasts, but to help them look firmer, taller and younger while preserving its softness and natural proportions.
What sets Dr. Garcia's approach apart is his attention to full contour of the upper body—not just the mammary mound. Act frequently lateral thoracic liposuction to eliminate hidden fat deposits in the armpit and lateral chest area, which can distort the silhouette of the breasts. The result is a cleaner transition from chest to torso, improving definition and restoring feminine elegance.
Depending on your anatomy, the procedure may include:
- Internal tissue remodeling (automatic augmentation techniques)
- Skin excision and nipple lift
- Resizing the areola (if stretched)
- Strategic incisions placed for minimum visibility
- Optional placement of implants or fat grafts if you want to increase volume.
- Restores anatomical position and shape: Over time, the mammary gland and skin envelope descend below the natural crease of the chest. A breast lift repositions the tissue and the areola-nipple complex, returning the breast to its ideal anatomical alignment. This creates a firmer and more youthful contour that respects the original proportions.
- Improves breast projection without implants: By remodeling and tightening existing tissue, the procedure restores the fullness of the upper pole and creates a rounded, raised silhouette, even without adding volume. For many patients, this internal remodeling provides the projection they lacked, especially after pregnancy or weight loss.
- Refines the neckline and the symmetry of the upper body: Dr. Garcia often performs lateral chest liposuction along with a breast lift to remove excess tissue that can blur the lateral contour of the breasts. This attention to the chest frame creates a cleaner line in the neckline and a more sculpted and proportionate upper torso.
- Reduces skin laxity and areolar stretching: Over time, the skin stretches and loses its elasticity. The lift removes this excess skin, repositions the tissue and often reduces the diameter of the areola, which can enlarge. This results in a tighter and more defined breast envelope with natural skin tension.
- Improves physical comfort and posture: Sagging breasts can contribute to poor posture, discomfort in bras, and movement limitations. After a facelift, patients often experience greater physical ease, a better fit of clothing, and greater freedom of movement during daily activities or exercise.
Who is an ideal candidate?
A breast lift is often the right choice for women whose breasts no longer reflect how they feel inside. Whether due to age, motherhood, weight changes, or simply genetics, loss of breast position and firmness can affect posture, body confidence and quality of life.

Your breasts appear deflated, elongated, or in the lower part of your chest wall
If your breasts have lost volume and their shape appears to be flat or heavy at the bottom, especially with a downward-pointing nipple or areola that is below the crease of the breast, a lift may be indicated.
You have good general health and a stable weight
As with all surgeries, ideal candidates are in good physical condition and have achieved a sustainable weight. Weight fluctuations after surgery can re-stretch the skin and compromise long-term results.
You have completed (or paused) motherhood
Pregnancy and breastfeeding after a breast lift may affect results, as the gland and skin may re-stretch. While mastopexy doesn't prevent future breastfeeding in most cases, Dr. Garcia recommends delaying surgery until family plans are complete or stable.
You are emotionally prepared for surgery and recovery
Mastopexy is both an emotional and a physical decision. The best candidates understand realistic results, are committed to post-operative care, and are emotionally prepared to see their bodies evolve during recovery.

Your travel and recovery schedule
Before surgery
In-depth evaluation and surgical mapping: It includes breast measurements, evaluation of skin elasticity, and evaluation of asymmetries or previous surgeries.
Lifestyle Optimization: Quitting smoking (at least 3 to 4 weeks before surgery), adjusting medications and supplements, nutritional counseling, and hydration recommendations.
Preoperative checklist: It includes stopping taking weight-loss medications, such as Ozempic (15 days early), starting iron supplements (if needed), and preparing clothes and household help.
Day of surgery
Innovare Hospital Center: Complete general anesthesia and real-time monitoring under the care of Dr. Garcia's surgical and anesthetic team.
Surgical time: Usually 2.5 to 3.5 hours, depending on the complexity and combination of procedures.
Post-surgical observation: In a private recovery room with nursing supervision and comfort management.
Postoperative phase (first 48 hours)
After surgery, patients are advised to wear a surgical bra and rest in a semi-upright position to minimize swelling and support the healing process. Postoperative care includes cleaning wounds, treating pain, and closely monitoring incisions to ensure adequate recovery. If recommended, lymphatic drainage therapy may be initiated along with gentle mobility guidance to promote circulation and reduce fluid accumulation. Eligible patients can also start hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT), which can accelerate healing and improve overall recovery outcomes.
Early recovery (weeks 1 to 2)
During this period, it is important to avoid raising or raising your arms above shoulder height to avoid tension in the surgical area. Emphasis is also placed on the continuous use of compression garments and proper scar care, and guidance is provided at each visit. For those staying off-site, virtual consultations are offered to maintain ongoing care and support throughout the recovery process.
Intermediate recovery (weeks 3 to 6)
patients can resume light activities and return to desk work. Scar treatment becomes a priority at this stage, and often involves the use of silicone strips or a gentle massage to aid healing. Lymphatic and ultrasonic therapies can continue, depending on individual needs, to reduce swelling and promote tissue recovery. In addition, physical therapy may be recommended to help correct posture and support safe and comfortable movement during the healing process.
Final phase of recovery (months 3 to 6)
The scars fade and the breasts take on their natural, raised shape
The final results are visible, including improved contour, cleavage and breast symmetry
All therapies (HBOT, lymphatic drainage and ultrasound) are available on-site or at affiliated recovery centers and hospital spas. You heal in one place, with no need to coordinate care elsewhere.

We answer your questions
Can I breastfeed after a breast lift?
Possibly. If the nipple remains attached to the underlying tissue, some function is retained. However, if breastfeeding is a priority, we recommend that you complete your family before surgery.
Will I lose nipple sensitivity?
Sensitivity may be temporarily reduced early in the healing period, but in most cases, it returns gradually. Permanent loss is rare but possible, especially in cases of extreme sagging or repositioning of the areola.
What type of scars will I have?
Most patients receive a vertical scar in the form of a “lollipop”. If significant tissue removal is required, an anchor-like scar may be necessary. Dr. Garcia places the incisions precisely and initiates scar treatment early to ensure optimal healing.
Do I need implants to get a good lift result?
Not necessarily. Many patients are satisfied with the shape and size of their breasts, but not with their position. Dr. Garcia uses internal remodeling techniques to restore projection without implants. However, implants or fat grafts can be added if volume is also desired.
