Mastopexy - Breast Lift
Aging and gravity effects play a major role in the breast changes. Like the facial skin, skin around the breasts tends to lose its elasticity, responding to gradual breakdown of the supporting structures of the skin.
It causes the skin to become lax. Additionally, suspensory ligaments, attaching the breast to the chest wall begin to weaken and stretch over time, responding to gravity. Breasts also enlarge during pregnancy and breast feeding, causing the skin to stretch.
One of the primary reasons for performing breast augmentation in combination with breast lifting is that breast augmentation alone cannot change the sagging or drooping of breasts. Increasing the volume and size of the breast will only lead to sagging even more with time.
Mastopexy Surgery
Usually, breast lift procedure takes from two to four hours, depending on whether any other procedures are to be combined.
Post-Operative Care
Bandages will be applied for a few days. Minor pain, bruising or swelling are to be expected within
several weeks after the procedure.
