Over the course of time, through the natural aging process of a woman's breast, glandular tissue deteriorates (involution) and the skin envelope stretches. This leads to sagging. This process is accelerated through childbearing, especially if there is breast-feeding.

Another cause is significant weight loss. The amount of stretching is very individual and varies from woman-to-woman. But the larger the breast, the faster it tends to fall. Surgical correction of this sagging may require a mastopexy procedure.

Women who need a breast lift usually present with one of two requests. The first group may simply ask to have the breasts lifted to their original position. However, the second often ask for a breast enlargement and are unaware of the need for an uplift. The criteria for determining the need for a mastopexy have to do with the degree of sagging, the amount of breast tissue present, and the location of the nipple and areolar relative to the fold beneath the breast.
