So we want to make the skin appear youthful again. How was it when you were young then? Do smooth, even skin tone and texture, no pores, elastic and glowing more or less describe it? These are all so called intrinsic qualities of the skin determined by the proper functioning of the skin at a cellular level in its uppermost one quarter of its thickness. This is right where a well done TCA chemical peel comes in. A TCA chemical peel hits the reset button of the skin at that level, erases the blackboard, clears the slate or whatever other analogy you like. After healing and regrowth of skin cells from the deeper layers, which are unaffected by the chemical peel, are complete – voila, well programmed and functioning cells sit on top and produce even color tone and texture, some new collagen (thicker skin appears less aged) and a level, smooth surface, all nicely synced to a roughly six weeks cell cycle.

Breast Lift (Mastopexy)
Thus foremost during breast lift / mastopexy we strive to create a conical, youthful breast mound above the inframammary fold.
