Breast lift, also known as mastopexy, is a surgery to lift, tighten and reshape loose and saggy breasts. This surgery also helps in improving cosmetic imperfections of the breasts and makes them look firmer and symmetrical. Breast Lift Surgery in Delhi is offered at Aestiva Clinic by the famous cosmetic surgeon Dr. Mrinalini Sharma. Read on for more insights!
