As physicists theorize about time slowing down at the centre of a black hole, Dr. Brian Peterson in Kelowna is actually reversing the effects of time and aging with plastic surgery procedures, one of which is the breast lift. According to the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, the popularity of the breast lift, clinically known as mastopexy, has increased by 600% in just over 15 years. As popular as breast augmentation surgery (implants) is, it’s not the only game in town for breast enhancement.
“Time is on my side, yes it is…”
Not so fast, Mick. The combination of aging and gravity can make for a major buzz kill. The truth of the matter is, terms like the “boob job” or “having your breasts done” conjure up generalizations of women wanting larger breasts; however, many women want to restore their breasts back to a younger time. As mentioned, the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery has documented an increasing trend in breast lifts, which elevates and repositions the nipples to achieve a more youthful look. Everyone wants to stay younger, feel younger and stave off the aging process. It’s not a question of vanity; it’s a natural desire. The fact is that there is an emphasis on staying healthy by eating a balanced diet and exercising, and as admirable as this lifestyle is, there are limitations. Where the healthy lifestyle hits a wall, plastic surgery can take you to the finish line.
The popularity of the cosmetic procedure mastopexy can be attributed to the resulting positive changes in patients’ lives. Several patients who have undergone mastopexy at Dr. Peterson’s clinic in Kelowna feel younger, more feminine, sexier, confident and are happy to ditch the push-up bras. Just ask anyone who has lost weight – the physical changes to a body often leads to greater confidence and self-esteem. The physical change doesn’t even have to be drastic. Plastic surgery procedures like the mastopexy can change the way someone talks and walks, the aura of confidence often translates to happier personal relationships and greater success in professional relationships.
The effects of aging are different for everyone; some people seemingly age better than others. Gravity, genetics and fluctuations in weight can make a woman’s breasts begin to sag and hang lower. It’s important to note that although the mastopexy can elevate a patient’s breasts, it also makes them smaller. The mastopexy can be combined with augmentation mastopexy, where Dr. Peterson adds breast implants to this procedure if more fullness is desired.
