Women who have experienced pregnancy and/or the effects of aging may find themselves unhappy with the way their breasts have changed. Due to loss of fat, the breast skin eventually wears thin and the breasts can begin to sag, causing the nipple to droop down below the breast crease. By repositioning the nipple to a more elevated location on the chest wall, you can regain the youthful bustline you once had.
In Toronto, breast lift surgery is performed by William G. Middleton, B.Sc., M.D., F.R.C.S. at his practice, Middleton Cosmetic Surgery Clinic. Our plastic surgeon can help you restore volume and achieve a better contoured shape with this procedure. Dr. Middleton takes your individual needs and anatomy into consideration when creating a personalized treatment plan.
If you would like to enhance the size and/or shape of your breasts while lifting them to a more youthful level, Dr. Middleton may recommend combining breast augmentation ("augmentation mammaplasty") with your breast lift procedure ("mastopexy"). Breast implants, saline or silicone gel filled, can be used to add volume and lift the breasts without the need for large incisions.
Breast lift and augmentation can also be combined with other body contouring procedures for what it is commonly referred to as a "Mommy Makeover." Tummy tuck surgery ("abdominoplasty") and liposuction ("lipoplasty") are frequently performed in order to remove loose, hanging skin and excess fat in the abdominal region. You can regain the shapely figure you had pre-pregnancy when undergoing these procedures.

In order to provide you with the latest in plastic surgery, Dr. Middleton continually participates in local and national organizations that pertain to his field. As a Fellow of the American Academy of Cosmetic Surgery (AACS) and a member of the American Academy of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery (AAFPRS), he has helped to enhance over 10,000 faces and figures since 1985, all of which have led to numerous television appearances, including "Style by Jury" and "Skin Deep."
