A breast lift is essentially a 'remodelling' of the breast. The procedure addresses skin laxity by excising excess tissue that has lost its elasticity. However, a high-quality mastopexy goes deeper than the skin; we utilize the 'internal bra' technique, where the glandular tissue itself is sutured into a higher, more stable position on the chest wall. This internal scaffolding provides the longevity that many patients seek.

During the surgery, the nipple and areola are moved upward to a more central, youthful point on the breast mound. This is often combined with an areola reduction if they have become stretched over time.

It is important to note that a mastopexy alone will not significantly change the cup size; it simply makes the existing volume more compact and elevated. For patients desiring both lift and increased size, we often perform a combined Augmentation-Mastopexy.

The benefits of this procedure include:

• Corrects breast sagging (ptosis) by elevating the entire breast mound.
• Repositions the nipple-areola complex to a higher, more youthful point.
• Removes 'stretched' skin that cannot be improved by exercise or diet.
• Reduces the size of enlarged or stretched areolas for better proportion.
• Creates a firmer, more compact breast shape that fits better in clothing.
