Mastopexy, commonly known as a breast lift, is a surgical procedure designed to raise and reshape the breasts by removing excess skin and tightening surrounding tissues. At Bellissima Medical Center, mastopexy procedures are performed under expert surgical care to restore breast firmness, position, and a more youthful contour with natural, long-lasting results.
What Is Mastopexy (Breast Lift)?
Mastopexy is a breast surgery procedure that corrects breast sagging (ptosis) by lifting the breast tissue and repositioning the nipple and areola to a higher, more youthful position. The procedure improves breast shape and contour without significantly changing breast volume, although it can be combined with augmentation if desired.
Concerns Addressed
Mastopexy is commonly performed to address breast sagging due to aging, pregnancy, breastfeeding, weight fluctuations, or gravity. It improves breast firmness, restores symmetry, and enhances overall breast aesthetics while maintaining natural proportions.
How Mastopexy (Breast Lift) Works
During the procedure, excess skin is removed, breast tissue is reshaped, and the nipple-areola complex is repositioned. The underlying support structures are tightened to create a lifted, firmer breast contour. Incision patterns are selected based on the degree of lift required.
Who Is a Suitable Candidate?
Mastopexy may be suitable for individuals experiencing breast sagging who desire improved breast position and shape. A comprehensive surgical consultation is required to assess breast anatomy, skin quality, medical history, and aesthetic goals.
