What is a Breast Lift?
A breast lift, or mastopexy, is a surgical procedure that lifts and reshapes sagging breasts to restore a firmer, more youthful appearance. Factors such as aging, gravity, pregnancy, breastfeeding, and weight fluctuations can decrease breast firmness and elasticity, causing drooping, stretched skin, and lower nipple placement, which may affect both appearance and self-confidence.
​
At Panhandle Plastic Surgery, we offer personalized breast lift procedures tailored to each patient’s body and aesthetic goals. Dr. May employs advanced techniques to remove excess skin, tighten surrounding tissue, and reposition the nipples and areolas for a naturally elevated, youthful look. Whether you wish to correct age-related sagging or restore your breast shape after pregnancy, a breast lift in Amarillo at Panhandle Plastic Surgery can help you achieve a rejuvenated silhouette and renewed confidence.
How do I know if a Breast Lift is right for me?
If your breasts have lost their youthful shape and firmness, a breast lift (mastopexy) may help restore both appearance and confidence. This procedure is ideal for individuals who:
-
Have Sagging Breasts: Due to aging, gravity, pregnancy, breastfeeding, or weight changes.
-
Want Improved Shape: Enhance contour and firmness without necessarily increasing size.
-
Experience Nipple or Areola Changes: Nipples that point downward, sit below the breast crease, or stretched areolas.
-
Are in Good Health: Non-smokers or willing to quit before and after surgery to support healing.
-
Maintain Stable Weight: Consistent weight promotes long-lasting results and reduces future sagging.
​
A breast lift reshapes existing tissue but does not significantly increase breast size. It can, however, be combined with breast augmentation or reduction for added volume or proportion.
