Mastopexy (Breast Lift)
Actual Patient
The Breast Lifting procedure, also called Mastopexy, elevates the breasts giving women a more youthful shape. Breasts droop because there is too much skin. The lifting is accomplished by removing extra skin which requires leaving scars on the lower surface of the breasts. These scars are well hidden beneath clothing and swim wear. In most cases they become flat lines.

You should also keep in mind that a breast lift won’t keep you firm forever–the effects of gravity, pregnancy, aging, and weight fluctuations will eventually take their toll again. Women who have implants along with their breast lift may find the results last longer. Your satisfaction with a breast lift is likely to be greater if you understand the procedure thoroughly and if your expectations are realistic.
