Mastopexy-lifting

A breast lift — also known as mastopexy — is a surgical procedure performed by a plastic surgeon to change the shape of your breasts. During a breast lift, excess skin is removed and breast tissue is reshaped to raise the breasts.
A breast lift won't significantly change the size of your breasts. However, a breast lift can be done in combination with breast augmentation or breast reduction.
Women with breast ptosis has excess skin compared to breast volume underlying. The thin skin is normally without elasticity and the presence of streaks. The tissue gland is quite mobile on the chest wall by thinning of the ligaments suspending the breast. The fall of the breast is independent of breast volume can be small-volume breast ptosis and breast hypertrophy.

Why it's done

As you get older, your breasts change — losing elasticity and firmness. There are many causes for these kinds of breast changes, including

: Pregnancy. During pregnancy, the ligaments that support your breasts might stretch as your breasts get fuller and heavier. This stretching might contribute to sagging breasts after pregnancy — whether or not you breast-feed your baby.
Weight fluctuations. Changes in your weight can cause your breast skin to stretch and lose elasticity.
Gravity. Over time, gravity causes ligaments in the breasts to stretch and sag.
