Your Breast Lift Surgery
A woman's breasts changes over time, losing their youthful shape and firmness. These changes, including loss of skin elasticity, can result from pregnancy, breast-feeding, weight fluctuations, aging, and gravity. Heredity may also be a factor, and a woman in her teens may experience loose, sagging breast tissue. Breasts that have lost their firm, uplifted contours can affect a woman's self-image and confidence.
If you desire to restore the firmness and shape of your breasts, then a breast lift (mastopexy) may be right for you. In general, a breast lift (mastopexy) raises and firms the breasts by removing excess skin and tightening the surrounding tissue to reshape and support the new breast contour. Sometimes the areola (the pigmented skin surrounding the nipple) has become enlarged over time, and a breast lift will reduce this as well. A breast lift rejuvenates the female figure with a breast profile that is more youthful, uplifted, and firm.
For further improvement in the volume of your breast after a breast lift (mastopexy), the breast lift surgery can be combined with breast implants. The breast implants can add extra fullness to the breasts especially in the upper portion of the breasts.
Breast lift surgery is a highly individualized procedure. Choosing to have breast lift surgery is a very personal decision. Every patient's body and breasts are unique and different. In addition, every patient's desires and goals are unique and different. By giving his personal attention to every detail, Dr. T. Y. Steven Ip aims to create the best possible breast lift result for your body.
