Procedures - Breast Lift
(Mastopexy)

This day surgery procedure is indicated for women who are
happy with the size of their breasts but who desire a more
youthful shape and contour. It is performed under
general anaesthesia at one of our fully accredited
hospitals. Poor breast contour and droop (ptosis) is
most common with aging, after pregnancy or
weight loss but can occur at any age for a
variety of reasons. The goal of surgery is to
tighten the breast skin reshape the tissues
and reposition the nipple to a higher more
youthful area of the breast.

Depending on the contour that needs to
be corrected, incisions can vary from those
limited to around the nipple (areola) to more
extensive incisions underneath the breasts
within the crease. Dr. Nodwell will help you
decide which approach is best, based on your
specific characteristics and goals. Some women
may benefit from a combination of Mastopexy
and Breast Implant to improve both contour and
volume (please see Breast Implant).
