As women age, factors such as pregnancy, nursing, weight gain or loss, and the effects of gravity may cause the breasts to sag. A breast lift or mastopexy is a surgical procedure that lifts and reshapes sagging breasts. To learn more about the breast lift procedure, including costs and candidacy, please schedule a consultation with Dr. Cabrera.
