What is ptosis?

“Ptosis” is the medical name for sagging. In very minor cases only an implant is needed to improve the shape of the breast. Usually a breast lift (mastopexy) with or without breast implants is needed. There are different types of mastopexies that can be performed depending on the degree of ptosis.

Ptosis or sagging is usually defined as the condition which exists when the nipple areolar resides below the level of the inframammary fold (the area or fold between the breast and abdomen).
