The Impact of Aging on Breast Shape and Volume

As we age, our bodies undergo various changes, and the breasts are no exception. With time, the skin loses its elasticity, and the breast tissue may lose volume and density. These changes, combined with the effects of gravity, can lead to breasts that sag and lose their youthful shape and firmness. Factors such as genetics, lifestyle, pregnancies, and weight fluctuations also play a significant role in these changes.

Breast Lifts: A Solution for Age-Related Changes

A breast lift, or mastopexy, is a surgical procedure designed to address these age-related changes. It involves removing excess skin, reshaping the breast tissue, and repositioning the nipples and areolae to a higher, more youthful position. This procedure can significantly rejuvenate your breast appearance, making them look firmer and more lifted.

Tailoring Breast Lift Techniques for Mature Women

At Gilson Plastic Surgery, we understand that every woman's body and aesthetic goals are unique. We offer a range of breast lift techniques tailored to address the specific needs of mature women. During your consultation, we will discuss the most suitable approach for you, whether it's a traditional breast lift, a minimal-incision technique, or a combination procedure that includes augmentation for added volume.

Maintaining Your Results: Tips for Long-Lasting Youthfulness

Post-surgery, it's important to maintain your breast lift results. This includes adopting a healthy lifestyle, wearing supportive bras, and following a skincare routine to preserve skin elasticity. Regular follow-ups at our clinic will help ensure that your youthful contours are maintained for years to come.


Breast lifts offer a rejuvenating solution for women looking to counteract the effects of aging on their breasts. At Gilson Plastic Surgery, we are dedicated to helping you achieve and maintain the youthful contours you desire.
