Would you like to restore firm breasts? Want to feel great in a summer top?
Ageing, pregnancy, or significant weight loss can reduce skin elasticity, especially in the breasts. This can cause sagging and a loss of youthful contour. A breast lift restores your breasts to their natural position without reducing size. Nipple sensitivity is not affected. The procedure requires completed physical development.
Performed under general anaesthesia, the surgery involves tightening the skin and moving the nipple higher without reducing breast volume. Techniques and resulting scars depend on breast size, ranging from an areola-only scar to an inverted T-shape scar.
Following surgery, a supportive bra must be worn day and night for six weeks, and during the day only for another six weeks.
A lift can also be combined with breast augmentation.
