Sacramento Breast Lift
Choosing Mastopexy
A breast lift, or mastopexy, can lift and rejuvenate the breasts. Often, due to pregnancy, age, or genetics, breast skin loses its elasticity and the breasts begin to sag. Women who experience extensive breast sagging often feel self-conscious about their figures and resort to wearing uncomfortable, extended support bras or hiding their breasts under baggy clothes.
A breast lift procedure can surgically raise and reshape the breasts, as well as reduce the size of the areola. Exercise, diet, and supplements may promise to rejuvenate the breasts, but surgery is the only way to truly undo the effects of gravity. To completely redefine and rejuvenate your shape, a breast lift can be performed in conjunction with breast augmentation. Breast lifts and other breast augmentation surgeries are offered in the Folsom and Roseville area by the experienced, board certified Sacramento plastic surgeons at Kaufman & Clark Plastic Surgery.
Candidates for Breast Lift Surgery
Healthy women who have realistic goals are the best candidates for breast lift surgery. A breast lift can be performed on breasts of any size, but the results last longer for women with smaller breasts. Larger, heavier breasts will feel the effects of gravity more quickly in the years following surgery.
There's another reason breasts sag to the point of discomfort: weight loss. Once excess weight is gone-whether through bariatric surgery or a sensible diet and exercise program-many newly-slim women choose mastopexy to lift their breasts to a more attractive position in keeping with their new shape.
