Breast Lift (Mastopexy)

A breast lift or mastopexy is a procedure to re-shape the sagging or ptotic (drooping) breast. It is often advantageous to consider a breast augmentation with a breast lift. There are different mastopexy techniques to consider. Dr. Silberman can give you a full evaluation at a complimentary cosmetic office consultation. For more information you can go to the American Society of Plastic Surgery.
