Many women inquire about breast augmentation to correct their body contour when in fact, a breast lift is more appropriate. A breast lift, or mastopexy in technical terms, surgically boosts the breasts up to make them perkier. Breast augmentation, on the other hand, simply involves the insertion of an implant to make the breasts bigger – placed where the bulk of breast tissue naturally exists.
But if the breasts are saggy and augmented, you’ll just have larger, saggy breasts (and actually over time, they may sag even more as the effects of gravity and age take their toll.)
So how do you figure out if a breast lift is more appropriate for you? Just look at the mirror. If your breasts look better when you lift them up, then you most likely need a breast lift. It’s as easy as that.
And remember, if you want larger and perkier breasts, it is possible to perform breast augmentation at the same time as a breast lift.
