What is a Breast Lift?
A woman’s breasts often change over time, losing their youthful shape and firmness. These changes, including loss of skin elasticity, can result from pregnancy, breastfeeding, weight fluctuations, aging, gravity, and heredity. Many women desire the full appearance of their breasts that were present prior to breastfeeding, weight loss, menopause, etc.
Breast lift, also known as mastopexy, raises the position of the breast mound on the chest wall by removing excess skin and tightening the surrounding tissue to reshape and support the new breast contour. Sometimes the areola is inherently large or has become large over time. During a breast lift, the areola will be reduced to the appropriate size while the breast is lifted and reshaped.
A breast lift can rejuvenate your figure with a breast profile that is more youthful and uplifted. Women who would benefit from breast lift surgery often describe their breasts as flat, elongated, or pendulous, with stretched out skin, enlarged areolas, and nipples that face downward. Sometimes one breast is lower than the other. You are a good candidate for breast lift surgery if you have some of these physical characteristics and are bothered by the feeling that your breasts sag or have lost shape and volume.
