Breast Lift Surgery Cost? Why Looking Up the Price First Is Meaningless.
Below, we have organized the recommended procedures by degree of sagging — please make sure to read through them.
Hello. We are U&U Plastic Surgery, a clinic born from 20 years of research devoted solely to the breast.
We are likely the only plastic surgery clinic in Sinsa-dong that dedicates an entire five-story building exclusively to breast surgery.
Thanks to that, a great many people have come to U&U Plastic Surgery. It renews our resolve to keep focusing only on the breast, without being distracted by eyes, noses, or other areas.

U&U Breast Center
After childbirth and breastfeeding,
my breasts have sagged noticeably..
Every time I undress to take a shower,
I just hate what I see in the mirror..
While looking for a way to improve the sagging,
I learned about breast lift surgery —
how much would it cost..?
Breast lift surgery cost
Honestly, looking into the cost at this stage is not very meaningful.
There are two ways to correct sagging breasts.
- Breast lift (mastopexy)
- Breast augmentation with implants
Which of these two methods is performed depends on the degree of breast sagging.
( Naturally, the surgery cost changes accordingly.)
We have prepared a test to diagnose the degree of breast sagging.
We encourage you to try it yourself — measure the height difference between your inframammary fold and your nipple.

Normal nipple position
- Sagging can be improved with implants alone

If your nipple position is normal, implant surgery alone may be enough. Filling in the upper volume with an implant can improve the sagging.
( * Breasts with no inframammary fold at all — what people commonly call a completely flat chest — fall into this category as well. )
Grade 2 / Grade 3
- Implants + breast lift required
Source
However, if your nipple sits at grade 2 / grade 3 or even lower, implants alone may not be enough.
In such cases, a breast lift may need to be performed together with implant insertion to raise the nipple position.
Grade 1 / pseudoptosis
- Choice between implants or a breast lift

This is the type where the recommended procedure differs depending on the surgeon you consult. Depending on the operator, opinions diverge on whether to perform a breast lift or use implants.
Personally, I tend not to prefer a lift, as it leaves scarring around the areola.
So I usually help patients lift sagging breasts by making the most of implants instead.
First, through the self-diagnosis, check how much sagging you have and,
based on that, judge which corrective procedure would suit you best.

In fact, among those who visit us convinced they need a lift, examination often reveals that a lift is not actually necessary.
How a third party (the medical team) sees a patient
and how the patient sees herself can sometimes differ.
Whenever I see situations like this, I feel that what ultimately matters is your answer to how you currently view your own breasts.
Some of you may want breast surgery, yet when it comes to actually visiting a clinic, wonder whether you really need it.
So yes, cost matters, but
I would like you to take a moment to reflect on yourself first.
Whether you are truly someone who needs breast surgery,
whether you have simply been swept along by those around you,
whether, comparing yourself with others,
you have judged your own breasts too harshly as sagging.

Please use the checklist below to decide.
- I have often searched breast surgery-related terms on the internet.
- I have envied someone around me who had plastic surgery.
- I feel embarrassed about my breasts at the public bath or in bed.
- I am reluctant to wear a bikini at the pool.
- I have felt depressed seeing myself put pads in my bra.
- I miss the breasts of my younger days and feel my sexual attractiveness has declined considerably.
- My breasts are noticeably asymmetric and I have wanted to correct them.
- I have thought, 'I should have chosen something other than breastfeeding..'
- People around me have suggested I get breast surgery.
- As a woman, I want some kind of change.
If three or fewer of these apply to you, it is fine to keep your breasts as they are.
Please stop typing 'breast surgery' into search portals now, and embrace yourself as you are.
But if eight or more apply, we recommend actively considering surgery.
