What is Breast Uplift Surgery?
Breast uplift surgery, also known as mastopexy, is an aesthetic surgery that aims to raise and reshape sagging breasts by removing excess skin and tightening the surrounding tissue.
To achieve the best outcomes, the breasts, nipples and areola are repositioned to create a more feminine, youthful appearance with long-lasting results during a breast lift in Turkey.
Why Undergo Mastopexy?
A breast uplift is meant for women who have sagging or drooping breasts and are dissatisfied with their appearance. This kind of breast surgery is not a substitute for breast augmentation or reduction, but it can be combined to achieve better results.
If you experience great psychological malaise or discomfort due to sagginess or asymmetry, a breast uplift in Turkey can greatly improve your quality of life.
Ptosis is the medical name for breast sagginess. Breasts become saggy or droopy due to 4 main reasons:
- Aging
- Pregnancy and breastfeeding
- Weight fluctuations
- Genetics
Depending on your case, ptosis may be reversible through exercise, a fat transfer or non-surgical skin tightening, but such methods usually have very limited results. It is precisely what pushes patients to undergo a boob lift in Turkey.
Determining the cause of your breast sagginess is the first and most crucial step to finding a solution. Should you want to receive a free medical evaluation, don’t hesitate to contact us.
