Your breast skin is responsible for holding your breast in position, but age, gravity, and the kind of skin you have, the size of your breasts, and pregnancy all contribute towards drooping. A "lift" is designed to tighten your skin and perk up your breasts without affecting their size!

How is it done?

Dr. Lockwood will make incisions around the nipple and under the breast. Excess skin is removed and to give a more lifted look, sometimes the nipple may be repositioned. If you have smaller breasts, drooping is less pronounced, and you can have what is called the "concentric" method, which requires fewer incisions, if your breasts are large, you may need an anchor shaped Mastopexy that does leave a large scar.

What kind of risks are involved?

You'll be happy to know a breast lift is considered low risk, although as with any surgery, there can be a reaction to anesthetic.
