What is a Los Angeles Mastopexy?

November 17th, 2009 | Posted in: Breast Lift |

A Los Angeles mastopexy procedure is also known as a breast lift. This elective, cosmetic procedure is designed to help women reshape and lift their breasts. A Los Angeles mastopexy can be performed alone or in conjunction with a breast augmentation.

There are many reasons why women choose to have a Los Angeles mastopexy. Most women are interested in reshaping and lifting the breasts after the breasts sag with age and breastfeeding. A breast lift can create a more youthful bust and can offer women a more attractive figure without the more dramatic changes usually associated with breast augmentation.

Los Angeles mastopexy procedures are often outpatient procedures, which means that patients can return home after a few hours at a clinic and can often return to many normal activities within a few days. Some patients who require minimal lifting may not even need a general anesthetic. Today’s plastic surgeons often focus on creating a natural breast contour with minimal scarring so that patients can feel confident in their appearance in even the most intimate situations.
