A breast lift is a cosmetic procedure that is often performed to address sagging and uneven breasts. During the process, our plastic surgeon repositions your breast tissue to give it a firmer and perkier contour. Dr. Alfonso Barrera will work with you to have your breasts achieve a more proportional and aesthetically pleasing appearance.

Reasons You May Get a Breast Lift

Weight Loss

If you have lost weight, your breasts may have excess skin. There is also a chance that you may be experiencing breast ptosis or sagging. With a breast lift, you can have that extra skin removed and have your breasts reshaped.

Aging

As we age, our skin loses its elasticity. This can result in our breasts sagging down over time. You can retain your youthful look with a breast lift by having your breasts placed in a more prominent position.

Post-Pregnancy and Breastfeeding

Childbearing causes many changes to your body. Both pregnancy and breastfeeding can change your breasts’ shape and volume.

Confidence

For many, a breast lift can change how you feel about your body. It can enhance your appearance in your clothes and make you feel more comfortable with your body. Breast lifts can boost your self-image and your self-confidence.

What Happens During a Breast Lift?

If you decide to undergo a breast lift, here are some things that can occur:

Remove Excess Skin

Our plastic surgeon may remove any excess skin to eliminate sagging and give your breasts a tighter and smoother appearance.

Reshape the Breast Tissue

Our surgeon may move and tighten your breast tissue. This creates a more youthful and rounded contour to your shape.

Reposition Your Nipples

With sagging, your nipples may have also moved to a descended position. During a breast lift, your nipples can be repositioned. The elevated nipples help make an aesthetically pleasing breast shape.

Improving Breast Symmetry

For many people, breast asymmetry is a typical phenomenon. However, you do not have to live with this asymmetry. Our plastic surgeon can readjust your breasts to create a more balanced look.
