About the Procedure:
Breast Lift
Over time, women can experience a loss of volume and lift in their breasts. The aging process can produce a droopy appearance that women find unsavory. Primarily, the culprit is aging but other life events such as pregnancy or dramatic weight loss can contribute to breast sag. We offer breast lift surgery, also called breast mastopexy, to help women regain the youthful shape, firmness, and volume of their breasts.
