breast lift and breast reduction plastic surgery
Breast lift and breast reduction are surgical procedures that involve the removal of breast tissue and reshaping of the breast.
Breast lift plastic surgery is an option for women who, although satisfied with the size of their breasts, are unhappy about the sagging and loss of firmness. This breast lifting procedure is called 'mastopexy'.
Breast reduction plastic surgery is an option for women who are trying to ease the physical symptoms caused by the weight of excessively large breasts. This procedure is called 'reduction mammaplasty' and is similar to breast lift surgery. Incisions are made around the areola, down the breast and along the natural curve of the breast crease.
Healthy women of any age can have a breast lift or breast reduction surgery. It is recommended to wait until breast development, child birth and breastfeeding have stopped. All of these can have unpredictable effects on breast shape. Breast lift and breast reduction plastic surgery can be used to balance the size and shape of significantly unequal breasts.
