Get Rid of Sagging Breasts With Breast Lift Surgery
One of the most common frustrations that leads women to consider cosmetic surgery is breast sagging, formally known as breast ptosis. This often occurs over time as a result of aging, gravity, breastfeeding, weight fluctuation, and other factors.

Why do breasts start to sag with age?
There are several factors that contribute to drooping breasts, many of which are unavoidable and considered a natural part of the aging process. Still, these changes can leave women feeling unhappy with their appearance and wanting to regain their more youthful physique. Some of the primary factors that cause breast sagging include:
- Age
- Gravity
- Weight loss
- Stretched skin
- Breastfeeding
- Pregnancy
- Genetics
How can I get perkier breasts?
Whether your breasts have started to sag after having children and getting older, or if you have always had nipples that point to the ground, breast lift surgery is one of the most effective and longest-lasting solutions for restoring perky breasts. While push-up bras can certainly help to create the illusion of lifted breasts, a surgical breast lift is the only way to physically raise the breasts to a higher, more youthful position on the chest wall.
How does a breast lift work?
Breast lift surgery is typically performed as an outpatient procedure using general anesthesia. While each breast lift surgery is customized to align with the patient’s individual anatomical needs and personal preferences, the procedure usually involves an incision on the breasts, through which Dr. Dauwe will reposition the breast tissue, remove excess skin, and tighten the remaining skin to create a firmer, perkier new breast shape.
Is breast lift surgery permanent?
Patients who undergo breast lift surgery often ask whether their perky breasts will start to sag again. While individual results can vary and will depend on the patient’s lifestyle, future weight fluctuations, age, genetics, and other factors, the results of breast lift surgery can last for many years or even decades. It’s important to keep in mind that the natural aging process will continue even after breast lift surgery, and subtle changes may become noticeable over time. Still, most women are able to enjoy many years’ worth of their younger-looking, lifted new look.
