Lift your Breasts and Your Self-Esteem

    ORANGE COUNTY, CA, October 03, 2009 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Every woman's breasts change over time. They grow larger, lose mass, start to sag, and the areola may grow larger. Breasts tend to change with pregnancy and breast-feeding. The breasts will grow larger while producing milk and then shrink after the baby has been weaned. Many times, the breasts sag and look "deflated" after breast-feeding. Some women's breasts may sag after extreme weight loss. There are many reasons that the breasts change and these changes may make us feel unattractive.

A breast lift moves the breasts higher on the chest leaving an overall younger, perkier look. The breast lift procedure uses two incisions. The first incision is around the areola. The areola is repositioned to a higher, more attractive place on the breasts. The second incision is hidden under the breasts and the excess breast tissue and skin is removed. The breasts are reshaped and contoured for a more pleasing and younger look. The breasts are positioned in a normal place on the chest.

Candidacy for Breast Lift

Candidates for a breast lift are those who:

• Have sagging breasts
• Are finished having children
• Have realistic goals and expectations
• Will not lose excessive weight after the procedure

A breast lift does not drastically change the shape of your breasts and will not add volume. A woman with larger, sagging breasts will not benefit from a breast lift as much as a woman with smaller, sagging breasts. A breast lift can be performed with other breast surgery procedures to create a more personalized procedure to dramatically change how the breasts look, for example, including breast implant placement.

A woman with smaller, sagging breasts may want to have a breast lift and breast augmentation. The breast lift procedure will remove the excess skin and position the breasts higher on the chest. A breast augmentation will add fullness and help round out the breasts by use of breast implants.

A woman with larger, sagging breasts will want a breast lift and breast reduction. The breast lift will reduce the sagging appearance and the breast reduction will remove the excess breast tissue leaving a perkier and younger set of breasts.
