Breast Lift (Mastopexy)
Hawaii breast surgery to lift the position of the breasts is also known as mastopexy. This procedure removes excess stretched skin, reshapes the breasts and lifts the nipples to a higher position. There are many reasons for having a breast lift. Women find as they mature the forces of gravity take over; or after pregnancy, breasts begin to droop, sag and lose shape. The medical terms for this sagging condition is "ptosis." For other women, upper portions of the breasts begin to lose fullness and projection. The goal of
a breast lift is to make your breasts look perkier, fuller and more youthful.

Free Breast Lift Consultation with Hawaii plastic surgeon Dr. S. Larry Schlesinger at his plastic surgery offices in Honolulu, Maui and Kona.
It is important for Hawaii breast surgery patients to understand that a breast lift by itself does not enlarge the breasts. If you desire or need enlargement, you can have a
Hawaii breast enlargement (augmentation mammaplasty) procedure performed at the same time as your breast lift in Hawaii. Breast enlargement is particularly helpful in filling out the upper portions of your breast. If you feel you will benefit from an enlargement and a lift, discuss both options fully with your plastic surgeon.
