| Description: |
Mastopexy, or breast lift, is a breast lift surgery performed to elevate and reshape sagging breasts and reposition the nipple to a more desirable site. This procedure can also reduce the size of the areola.
Women who are non-smokers, physically healthy, and realistic in their expectations about the surgery are the best candidates for the procedure. Life events, such as pregnancies, loss of skin elasticity due to aging, loss of breast volume, and gravity are several factors that result in sagging breasts. A breast lift is one way you can fight the signs of aging, in conjuction with a breast augmentation you can acheive additional lift to the breast by increasing its volume. |

| Procedure: |
Cosmetic surgery to uplift the breast, also called mastopexy, removes excess breast skin to raise, reshape and firm your breasts. The result is a more youthful breast contour.
If you are considering mastopexy or breast lifts, you need to be thoroughly informed about the procedure. Reading this is the first step. A confidential consultation with one of our specialist surgeons is the best way to obtain the additional information you will need.
Loss of skin elasticity, gravity and other factors such as weight loss, pregnancy and breast-feeding ultimately affect the shape and firmness of your breasts. Patients who are generally satisfied with the size of their breasts can have a breast uplift to raise and firm them. Some patients may be unhappy that they have lost a significant amount of breast volume over time. In such cases, implants can be inserted to increase breast size, at the same time as the shape and position of the breasts are enhanced.

| Breast Implants: |
A breast implant is a silicone elastomer (rubber) shell filled with a salt-water solution known as saline. In 1992, the Food & Drug Administration (FDA) decided that more safety and effectiveness information was needed on the type of breast implant filled with silicone gel, and greatly restricted the use of these implants in the United States. Saline-filled implants continue to be available to breast augmentation patients on an unrestricted basis. Read more on Breast Implants |
