Breast Lift Surgery or ‘breast lifts’ for short, are
becoming an increasingly popular plastic surgery
technique that will allow women to regain their
youthful appearance, vitality and vigor. Breast Lift
Surgery is done with a surgical procedure that is
known in the medical world as mastopexy. Breast
lifts are designed to raise and reshape sagging
breasts. End results of this surgery are usually
patients with breasts that have a more youthful
breast contour. Many times breast lifts are often
used in conjunction with breast augmentation, as a
way to provide patients with increased size and
firmness in their breasts.
In 2002 a study was conducted by the American
Society for Aesthetic Plastic surgery and they
reported that a total of 62, 458 individuals
obtained breast lifts. This figure represents an
increase of 214% in the number of patients from five
years ago.
Breast Lift treatments are short and last anywhere
from 1 to 3 hours. They are one of the safest and
easiest cosmetic surgery techniques and most
patients who have undergone treatment will be able
to return to work within a week.
If you’re curious to know what the benefits of
breast lists are, here is a list of some of the
major benefits of maxtopexy: reverses the effects of
ptosis or breast sagging, corrects breast imbalances
in shape and size, reduces the size of the areola
(darker area surround the nipple), regains volume
and look of breasts prior to pregnancy and nursing,
reverses the drooping effect of breasts caused from
not wearing a bra, reverses the effects of
stretched, saggy skin caused by significant weight
loss and can also be used to reduce breast size.
