Full, firm breasts are closely tied to youth, femininity, and confidence. Over time, gravity, pregnancy, aging, weight changes, and breastfeeding can stretch the skin and reduce volume, creating a sagging appearance. Board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Dax Guenther performs breast lift surgery for Boston-area patients at his Hingham and Nantucket practice locations, using advanced techniques to reshape and elevate the breasts.

Meet 'Dr. Dax'
Board-Certified Plastic Surgeon
With impeccable credentials and a personable bedside manner, Dr. Dax gives his patients confidence and peace of mind from their initial consultations through follow-up appointments. He established his boutique private practice in 2012 and is among the best plastic surgeons in the Boston area.
Dr. Dax offers a range of incision patterns for breast lift surgery to suit the differing needs of his patients. The type of incisions he makes is influenced by factors such as skin quality, breast anatomy, or previous breast surgeries. He will work closely with you to explain how various techniques create breasts that look youthful and natural.
Through his extensive training and experience, Dr. Dax has refined short scar (limited scar) techniques for horizontal-only, periareolar (around the areola), and circumvertical (SPAIR-type) incision patterns. Short scar techniques help to minimize the signs of surgery and improve comfort in the short and long term. Women commonly report that these techniques result in an improved breast shape that holds up over time.

Combining Breast Lift With Implants or Other Procedures
Many patients choose to combine their breast lift with additional procedures to enhance their results, streamline recovery, and achieve more balanced, harmonious proportions. A combined approach often provides the most comprehensive aesthetic improvement—especially for changes related to pregnancy, weight fluctuations, or aging.
Popular Procedure Combinations
Breast Augmentation: Adds fullness and volume for patients who want both a lifted and enhanced breast shape.
Liposuction: Refines nearby areas such as the abdomen, flanks, or bra line to create cleaner, more defined contours.
Tummy Tuck: Tightens abdominal muscles and removes excess skin for a flatter, firmer midsection.
Mommy Makeover: Combines breast and body procedures in a single surgery to restore pre-pregnancy confidence and proportions.
Combining procedures is highly individualized, and Dr. Dax will help you decide which options best support your goals while maintaining a safe, efficient recovery plan.
How Much Does a Breast Lift Cost?
The cost of breast lift surgery varies depending on the patient’s needs and other factors. It’s important to understand what the total cost includes when a plastic surgery practice quotes a price. For example, the cost of a breast lift may include:
Surgeon’s fee
Hospital or surgical facility costs
Anesthesia fees
Prescription medications
Medical tests
You should know that choosing a plastic surgeon based on the lowest cost may lead to additional costs later if the surgeon has little training or experience. Choosing a board-certified, experienced surgeon who is qualified to perform your procedure should be your top priority.

Most patients can expect an overall recovery period of several weeks, with initial healing happening within the first 1 to 2 weeks. Dr. Dax’s modern techniques minimize trauma during surgery, helping make this phase as smooth and comfortable as possible. You’ll wear a supportive bra for the first 2 weeks to aid healing, and most swelling improves noticeably within 2 to 3 weeks.
By about 3 months, you should have a clear sense of your results, while scar maturation continues for up to a year with the help of Dr. Dax’s scar-minimizing strategies.
