No. There are a variety of different breast lifts; which one is right for you depends on how much sagging you have and how much of a lift you want. In a standard breast lift, a considerable amount of skin is removed from the lower portion of the breasts while the areola around the nipple is made smaller. The nipple and areola are then moved to a higher position on the breast. Skin from the upper breast is then moved to the lower pole of the breast to provide support. The final scars run around the areola, in a line straight down from the areola to the crease under the breast, and along the crease. Although it appears that the nipple and areola have been completely removed, they have actually been left attached to the breast tissue underneath.
