Breast Lift
Repositioning and shaping to improve appearance
What is it?
The surgery consists of lifting the sagging breast, repositioning and reshaping both the breast and the complex of the areola and the nipple.
The nipple and areola in a sagging breast descend below their position (which is central in the breast cone), giving the breasts an appearance of flaccidity, deterioration, and old age.
In Mastopexy or Breast Lift surgery, the objective is to improve the shape of the breast, lifting it, giving it a more turgid appearance, and raising the areola-nipple complex to its normal position, also correcting the lowered breast tissue in the lower pole of the breast. . This can be achieved by drying out the skin in excess and rearranging the internal breast tissue.
Candidates
