Breast Lift

Breast lift ( mastopexy) is a procedure used to raise and reshape sagging breasts. Breast lift can significantly improve appearance and self-confidence.

The procedure usually takes one to three hours and is performed under general anesthesia. Several techniques can be used depending on breast size and amount of sagging. Generally, an incision is made along the natural line of the breast. Next, excess skin is removed, the nipple is repositioned and the breast is moved to a higher position. As incisions can be made along the natural crease of the breast or in the areola (dark area around the nipple), visible scarring is minimal. Some patients choose to have breast implant surgery at this time to further enhance results.

The best candidates for breast lift surgery are individuals in good mental and physical health with realistic expectations on the outcome of their procedure.
