Breast Lifting

Firmer, higher, lifted back into shape.

A breast lift — mastopexy — removes excess skin and reshapes the breast tissue to restore firmness and lift. It reshapes rather than resizes.

What it is?

Reshaping, not resizing

A breast lift tackles sagging and helps the breasts regain a healthy look. Shape restored — not size changed.

A breast lift is a surgical procedure to modify the shape of your breasts — removing excess skin and reshaping the tissue to restore firmness and lift.

It's worth being clear: a breast lift won't significantly change the size of your breasts. It doesn't influence size at all — it tackles sagging and helps the breasts regain a healthy, youthful look.

With age, breasts inevitably lose elasticity and firmness. At Risus Care, the lift restores their position and shape, so they sit firmer and higher than before.

Why breasts change

What causes sagging

Over time, breasts lose elasticity and firmness. A few common factors are usually behind it.

Pregnancy

As the breasts get fuller and heavier, the supporting ligaments can stretch — contributing to sagging afterwards, whether you breast-feed or not.

Weight fluctuations

Changes in your weight can stretch the breast skin and cause it to lose elasticity.

Gravity

Over time, gravity stretches the ligaments in the breasts and they begin to sag.

Three approaches

The operation is done in three ways

The right one depends on how much lift is needed — and whether volume or reshaping is required too.

Lift alone

When only the breast sags, the breast alone is lifted back into position.

Lift with a prosthesis

Lifting to remove sagging can sometimes make the breast look smaller, so a breast prosthesis is implanted to lift and restore volume.

Lift with reshaping

When the tissue also needs shaping — and the nipple may need treatment — lifting is combined with reduction mammoplasty: tissue is removed and the drooping eliminated together.

Ideal candidates

Who a breast lift suits

Breast lift tends to suit women who want to:

Lift sagging, drooping or flat breasts.

Increase the size and volume of their breasts.

Reposition or reshape the nipples.
