Chicago Breast Rejuvenation – Breast Lift

Gravity takes its toll on all areas of our bodies, but for women, perhaps none so severe as the breasts. In addition to gravity, we also have genetics, pregnancy, nursing and changes in weight to battle against. If you are dissatisfied with the sagging appearance of your breasts, you may be a good candidate for Breast Lift Surgery.
During a Breast Lift procedure the excess skin from around the areola is removed, the breast are lifted and the remaining skin is closed around the areola to create perkier, firmer and more youthful breasts. The areola can also be adjusted in shape, size or location to better complete the transformation in the most natural and aesthetically pleasing way. Some women may find that in addition to sagging, their breasts have also suffered a loss of mass. If this is the case, a Breast Lift in combination with a Breast Augmentation may be the best route to achieve your goals.
