Breast Lifts Can Perk You Up

The effects of gravity over the years, weight loss, motherhood, and the loss of elasticity in the skin can affect how your breasts look. Pregnancy and nursing can get rid of those youthful perky breasts faster than anything else. Not to worry – a breast lift can perk you up in no time.

A breast lift, also called a mastopexy, is a surgery done by a plastic surgeon that lifts and shapes your breasts. It can also reduce the size of the dark skin around the nipple. And if you want firmness or size, then have breast implants done at the same time.

The breast lift procedure varies slightly depending on your surgeon. One recommendation is that if you plan to have more children wait until you are finished having babies. The most common method will involve an incision that is anchor shaped and follows the breasts natural shape. The incision is where the skin will be removed and marks where the new location of your nipple will be.

You may choose to have breast implants done at the same time depending on what your goal is. Sometimes breast lifts are just what you need while other times they simply don’t provide enough "substance," and you’ll want to opt for Boston breast augmentation.

Remember this. It’s your body and only you know what’s right for your body. Breast lifts just might be the way to perk you up.
