A breast lift is performed to improve the appearance and shape of drooping or sagging breasts in women who have lost volume in their breast tissue due to massive weight loss, breastfeeding, or pregnancy. This procedure restores and reshapes the breast to look more lifted, youthful and natural. In many cases, a breast lift is performed in conjunction with breast augmentation for optimal results, depending on your condition and desired results.

Compared to other breast lifting procedures that are often thought to reduce the size of the breast, our affiliated clinic is more flexible in its breast lifting treatment, taking into consideration the health of the breasts and the best finish.

Depending on your diagnosis, these treatments will be proposed:

<Breast Augmentation>
For breasts with small size and less sagging. This procedure is performed by inserting implants to increase the areola height by 1 to 2 cm.

<Breast Lifting>
This procedure is suitable for women with drooping breasts. It works by adjusting the position of the nipples to a higher position. If the upper part of the chest is not suitable for the procedure, the breast shape will be balanced by moving the tissue of the sagging breast upward to hold the breast in place.

<Breast Augmentation-Lifting>
If the sagging is severe and the breast size is small, then a double procedure of inserting the implants and correcting the position of nipples will be done.
