Breast Reduction and Lifting (Mastopexy) Procedure

Figure 1. Over time, a woman's breasts begin to sag and the areolas become larger. |
|
Figure 2. Incisions outline the area of skin to be removed and the new position for the nipple. |
|
Figure 3. Skin formerly located above the nipple is brought down and together to reshape the breast. Sutures close the incisions, giving the breast its new contour. |
 |
|
 |
|
|
Figure 4. After surgery, the breasts are higher and firmer, with sutures usually located around the areola, below it, and in the crease under the breast. |
|
Figure 5. If your expectations are realistic, chances are you'll be satisfied with your breast lift. |
