What is a Breast Lift?
A breast lift is a procedure that involves lifting droopy breasts. The results are that breasts look more youthful and firm in appearance. Skin is removed from underneath the breast and the dark area around your nipple. The skin and tissue of the breast is then tightened and the nipple is repositioned to a higher level. This procedure is also called a Mastopexy.
Is it possible to breastfeed after a breast lift procedure?
In order to reposition the nipples, they may need to be detached from the milk ducts. This means that after a breast lift, it may not be possible to breastfeed.

It may take a few months, before your breasts fully take on their new shape.
