A breast lift (mastopexy) corrects sagging caused by pregnancy, breastfeeding, weight loss or aging. Excess skin is removed, the breast tissue is reshaped, and the nipple is repositioned to a more youthful height.
When volume loss accompanies the sagging, the lift can be combined with implants to restore both shape and fullness.
