Breast Lift in Plano by Dr. J. Martin English
Understanding Breast Lift Surgery
Breast lift surgery, also known as mastopexy, is a procedure that raises and firms the breasts by removing excess skin and tightening surrounding tissue. This reshapes and supports the new breast contour, creating a more youthful and uplifted profile.
Why Consider a Breast Lift?
Women's breasts often change over time, losing their youthful shape and firmness due to factors such as:
- Pregnancy
- Breastfeeding
- Weight fluctuations
- Aging
- Gravity
- Heredity
