Every breast lift technique that works leaves some kind of scar.   There simply is no reliable technology available to lift the breasts without leaving some sort of mark on the skin. 

What we can do is to minimize the scars of a breast lift by leaving them only at the border of the areola in an effort to camouflage them.  Another option might be to have an augmentation because this can create the illusion that the breast have been lifted due to the volume enhancement.  These two options are only going to help patients who need minimal lifting.

There are other techniques that create less scarring with a more formal lift.  I would also advice the use of silicone sheets and lasers to assist with minimizing scar formation post-operatively.

Good Luck,
