McRae Plastic Surgery

A breast lift restores the breast to a more aesthetically pleasing shape by removing excess skin and tightening the surrounding tissue.  If desired, a breast lift can also reshape/reduce enlarged areolas.

 

Factor such as aging, heredity, pregnancy, weight loss/fluctuations, breastfeeding are all contributing factors that can cause us to develop loose, sagging skin in our breasts. A breast lift can help restore your breasts, bringing back a more youthful profile.  Patients planning on future or continued weight loss would be advised to wait until they are close to their ideal weight before pursing surgery to ensure your best overall surgical outcome.

 

An aesthetic procedure like a breast lift is a procedure personalized and tailored to your needs.  In order for us to assist you in achieving your ideal results, patients need to be doing it for themselves and have realistic expectations.
