Also known as mastopexy, the breast lift is performed on women who have experienced sagging or drooping of the breasts. This procedure may be done in conjunction with augmentation. Several different techniques can be used to correct this condition depending on the degree of sagging. Surgery consists of removing excess skin from around the areola and from the bottom of the breast and shifting the skin of the breast to tighten the skin envelope. In doing so, the position of the nipple & areola can be elevated to a more natural position.

You’ll need to wear an elastic bandage or support bra to minimize swelling and support your breasts as they heal. Overtime, your breast can continue to change due to aging and gravity. But you’ll be able to retain your new look longer if you: maintain your weight and keep a healthy lifestyle.
