The most common breast lift surgery, called mastopexy, raises and firms the breasts by removing excess skin and tightening the surrounding envelope to reshape and support the new breast contour. It is dependent upon creating an internal brassiere.
A mastopexy can be combined with breast augmentation or breast reduction surgery. A breast lift can be combined with reduction of areolae that have become stretched or enlarged over time to create a youthful and attractive appearance.
