The shape of breasts can change and become ‘droopy’ following child birth and breast feeding, with weight loss or natural ageing.  Mastopexy or “breast uplift” aims to reshape the breasts and reposition the nipple to create a fuller, more youthful appearance. A mastopexy can also help improve breast asymmetry if there are differences in the breast size, shape or nipple position.  

An augmentation mastopexy is a breast uplift plus implants. If you do not have enough breast tissue or wish to enhance the size of your breasts, silicone implants can be placed to achieve the desired size. The implants can be inserted either at the same time (single stage) as the mastopexy or months later as a separate procedure (two stage). Any difference in the breast size can also be corrected by placing different sized implants to even up the breasts
