The breast lift surgery or Mastopexy is a procedure that attempts to improve:
  • the appearance of the sagging breasts
  • Or breasts in which the nipple faces down.

Breast lift surgery or Mastopexy is a surgical procedure to raise and reshape sagging breasts, at least, for a time. Sagging breasts are usually caused :
  • by pregnancy
  • breast-feeding
  • Weight fluctuations and the force of gravity.

The skin loses its elasticity; the breasts loose their shape and firmness and begin to sag.
Breast lift surgery or Mastopexy can also reduce the size of the areola, the darker skin surrounding the nipple.

The best candidates for Mastopexy are women:
  • Unhappy with sagging breasts, are out of shape or volume.
  • With nipples and areolas that point downward.
  • With stretched skin and enlarged areolas.
  • With one breast lower than the other.

Anesthesia for the breast lift surgery or Mastopexy is local + sedation or epidural or general anesthesia.

A Breast lift surgery or Mastopexy can enhance your appearance and your self-confidence.
You should also keep in mind that a breast lift surgery or Mastopexy won't keep you firm forever; the effects of gravity, pregnancy, aging, and weight fluctuations will eventually take their toll once more.

Dr. Toni Nassar takes a technique adapted to each case for best results.
If you are having an implant inserted along with your Breast lift surgery or Mastopexy, Dr. Nassar inserts the breast prosthesis through in a box built by peeling of the skin under the muscle.

Following a breast lift you will be required to wear a sports-bra for 4 weeks.
If most of the time the consequences are simple, complications can occur, therefore it must always keep in touch with your doctor.

The incisions should not be subjected to excessive force, abrasion or motion during the healing process.
