A Breast Lift procedure, also known as mastopexy, is designed to raise and reshape a sagging breast. Factors such as weight loss or pregnancy can lead to the skin losing its elasticity, causing the breast to lose shape and begin to droop. A Breast Lift is performed to raise and reshape the breast. The operation can also reduce the size of the areola (darker skin around the nipple). If the breasts have lost volume, a breast implant can be inserted in conjunction with this procedure to increase size and firmness.
