Breast Lifting ( Mastopexy) is a procedure used to lift sagging breasts. It is usually performed on women who have gone through pregnancy and breast feeding , which can affect the shape and appearance of breasts.
The intervention comprises three main steps : excision of excess skin, reshaping of the breast tissue and re-positioning of the nipple-areola complex. If the breasts are small , the lift may be combined with the insertion of implants .
