That is a good question. A lot depends on skin quality, and gravity. So another way of looking at it is how big your breasts are after the lift. Smaller breast can stay lifted for decades, larger ones can drop somewhat in as little as a year. Your best bet is to make an appointment tenet with a board certified plastic and reconstructive surgeon so they can assess you properly and give you an answer that is more specific to your body type.

Hi. This is a complicated question. Breast lift surgery can be extremely long-lasting (tens of years), and all my breast lift patients (with or without implants) are extremely happy. The main issue is taking care of your breasts after surgery. Subsequent pregnancies after a breast lift will result in the breasts likely becoming saggy again. Similarly, massive weight gain and weight loss after breast lift surgery will also cause them to likely become saggy again. When young, thin patients come in for breast reduction and breast lift surgery, we have these conversations at great length. Hope this helps.
Breast lifting should last a long time unless you gain or lose to much weight.
It is variable depending upon such factors as the condition of the skin envelope, weight loss and gain, and the natural aging process. In addition, future pregnancy can also Affect the long-term outcome.
