Understanding Breast Lift Surgery

A breast lift (mastopexy) is a cosmetic surgical procedure designed to rejuvenate sagging breasts by recontouring breast tissue, tightening skin, and repositioning the nipple-areola complex to a more youthful position. The procedure addresses common breast changes caused by pregnancy, breastfeeding, weight fluctuations, aging, and genetics.
