Mastopexy in the Bucks County area is a cosmetic plastic surgical procedure to uplift and reshape women’s breasts. Breasts loose elasticity and firmness due to the aging process, gravity, weight gain and pregnancy. Mastopexy, also known as a Breast Lift is a plastic surgical cosmetic procedure that lifts and firms breasts by removing excess skin, tightening the underlying breast tissue, and elevating the nipple-areola complex to a higher position. This allows the breast tissue to be placed higher on the chest, for a more aesthetically pleasing breast shape without any breast droop.
For patients who have lost significant breast volume, a mastopexy in combination with a breast augmentation allows breast implants to be used to increase the breast volume as well as a breast lift procedure to improve breast shape. This combination procedure also shortens the length of the overall breast lift scars because the augmentation fills up some excess loose breast volume so less tissue needs to be removed and therefore less scarring. Sometimes based on the patient’s medical history, a staged procedure in which the augmentation is performed first and several months later, the mastopexy is performed. This will decrease the risk for complications that could result from performing both procedures concurrently.
