Breast Lifting: Restore Youthful Contours and Confidence
Overview
Breast lifting, also known as mastopexy, is a surgical procedure designed to raise and firm the breasts by removing excess skin and tightening the surrounding tissue. This treatment helps to counteract the effects of aging, gravity, pregnancy, breastfeeding, and weight fluctuations, restoring a more youthful and uplifted breast profile.
Procedure Options
- Techniques: Various techniques can be used for breast lifting, including the anchor lift, the lollipop lift, and the donut lift. The choice of technique depends on the degree of sagging and the desired results.
- Combination with Augmentation: In some cases, a breast lift can be combined with augmentation to enhance both the shape and size of the breasts. This approach is ideal for women seeking both lift and volume.
- Incision Types: Incisions can be made around the areola, vertically down from the areola to the breast crease, and horizontally along the breast crease. Your surgeon will recommend the best approach based on your anatomy and aesthetic goals.
