Breast lift or ptosis treatment is an intervention adapted to the treatment of "sagging breasts" or breast ptosis.
Breast sagging can exist immediately but most often occurs after significant weight loss or pregnancy with breastfeeding.
Our preferences: breast lift
Mammary ptosis surgery is based on a mammary plasty to lift the breast by acting on the skin envelope and glandular tissue, and reposition the areola and the nipple initially too low in the right position.
The breast is in a too low position and frequently "uninhabited" in its upper part. Only surgery can correct this situation.
In the case of moderate ptosis, two scars are produced using a so-called vertical technique.
If the ptosis is larger, the scar is shaped like an inverted T, with three scars: peri-areolar, vertical between the areola and the inframammary fold, and horizontal in the inframammary fold.
Alternatives: mammary plastic surgery and prostheses
Correction consists mainly of removing excess skin, but when there is insufficient volume, it may be desirable to place breast implants at the same time of the operation in order to restore satisfactory volume.
In this case, it is possible to limit the scars only in the peri-areolar.
