Meet Dr. CovillePregnancy, breastfeeding, weight fluctuations, and the natural effects of aging and gravity can cause breasts to lose firmness and begin to sag. A breast lift, or mastopexy, is a surgical procedure that raises, reshapes, and restores breasts to a more youthful position on the chest.
In many breast lift NJ cases, Dr. Coville also reduces the size of stretched areolas and, when desired, combines the lift with breast augmentation implants or natural fat transfer to restore lost volume. Unlike many surgeons, Dr. Coville specializes in short-scar breast lift techniques that minimize visible scarring, even in larger cases. He also uses auto-augmentation, repositioning, and reshaping of your own breast tissue to create fullness and natural curves without the need for implants.
At Cornerstone Plastic Surgery, Dr. Coville’s advanced approach to breast lift surgery in New Jersey delivers elegant, lasting results with less scarring, greater preservation of your natural tissue, and a youthful, confident shape. Women throughout South Jersey and the Jersey Shore choose him for his surgical artistry and innovative techniques.

When appropriate, Dr. Coville may request a mammogram (especially for those over 40 or with relevant family history). We can also assist with transportation, post-operative support, and accommodations for patients from out of town.
Most mastopexies take between 1.5 and 3 hours. Unlike many surgeons who rely on anchor-shaped incisions, Dr. Coville specializes in short-scar techniques to minimize visible scarring while delivering a stronger, longer-lasting lift. He also reshapes internal breast tissue to create an “internal brassiere” for durable support, especially helpful when skin elasticity is limited.
If added volume or upper-pole fullness is desired, implants can be placed over or under the muscle, based on your goals and anatomy. Your plan is finalized with Dr. Coville for proportional, natural results.
Any breast lift will leave some scarring, as the procedure requires incisions to reshape and reposition the breast. The good news is that Dr. Coville is known for his advanced short-scar and vertical mastopexy techniques, which reduce the length and visibility of scars compared to traditional methods. He also carefully places incisions along natural breast contours so they are easier to conceal. With proper healing, most scars fade over time, leaving patients with long-lasting, natural results.

Schedule Your ConsultationThe cost of a breast lift varies depending on the complexity of your procedure, whether implants or fat transfer are added, and your individual anatomy. Dr. Coville provides a personalized estimate during your consultation.
A “Vampire” breast lift uses PRP injections to improve skin texture and minor volume. It is non-surgical and cannot achieve the lift, contour, or long-term results of a true mastopexy.
Breast lifts for cosmetic reasons are typically not covered by insurance. Coverage may apply only if combined with medically necessary breast reduction to relieve pain or functional issues.
With proper care, a breast lift can provide results that last 10 years or more. Aging, gravity, lifestyle changes, and weight fluctuations may affect long-term outcomes.
Yes. Dr. Coville frequently performs breast lifts using auto-augmentation, reshaping your own breast tissue to restore fullness naturally without the need for implants.
Post-operative discomfort is usually mild to moderate. Most patients manage soreness with prescribed pain medication and feel able to resume light activities within a week.
Many patients can breastfeed after surgery, but it is not guaranteed. The ability to nurse depends on the lift technique, incision placement, and individual breast anatomy.
Incisions typically heal within two to four weeks. Scars gradually fade over months and are often well-concealed along natural breast folds and contours.
Some temporary changes in nipple or breast sensation are common after surgery. Most patients experience gradual improvement, with full or near-full sensation returning over several months.
Scars fade significantly over time but do not completely disappear. Dr. Coville places incisions strategically along natural contours, helping scars remain discreet and well-concealed.
