Breast Lift (Mastopexy)

[Translate]

This procedure is also referred to as a mastopexy and will raise and reshape the breasts. The result is a firmer, more youthful breast profile that will leave you rejuvenated and uplifted. It is natural for women to undergo unwanted long-term changes in their breast secondary to aging, gravity, pregnancy, weight fluctuations, breast feeding, and heredity. The end result is a loss of skin elasticity and firmness that once gave the breasts that youthful shape. If the areola, the darker area around the nipple, has become enlarged, then it can be reduced to a smaller size during the same time.
A mastopexy will enhance the beauty of the breast by removing the excess skin, reducing the areola size if needed, and tightening the surrounding tissue. The size of the breast will not significantly change with this operation unless an implant is added during the same procedure. This is also known as an augmentation mastopexy. Dr. Yovino will discuss this option during your consultation depending on your desired outcome. The results are immediately visible and will continue to improve as you recover.
