Mastopexy or Breast Lift Surgery: An Uplifting experience?

Due to a variety of circumstances, some women need to have their breasts "lifted" back to their original position. Breast feeding and gravity will cause breasts to sag and the skin to stretch and therefore be unable to support breast tissue. A Mastopexy is the actual removal of skin from the breast. The surgery can restore a more youthful appearance and positioning of the breasts. 

There are three surgical techniques used to "lift" the breast.
  1. The Wise pattern, where an incision, in the shape of an anchor, goes around the chest and below the breast.
  2. The LeJeour or Lollipop is an incision that goes around the areola and then down the lower part of the breast, but not below the breast.
  3. Donut or peri-areolar is an incision that goes around the areola only.
Breast LiftOver time, a woman's breasts begin to sag and the areolas become larger. All surgery carries some uncertainty and risk.
Breast LiftIf your expectations are realistic, chances are you'll be satisfied with your breast lift.
