Cleavage is defined as the visible space between a woman’s breasts, typically accentuated when wearing a bra, swimsuit, or low-cut clothing. With age, the desire for more visible cleavage is common — especially when the breasts start to flatten or stretch out after pregnancy, menopause, or the natural aging process. While supportive bras and bikinis can emphasize cleavage, these solutions are temporary and only effective when worn.

For patients who want to improve a lack of volume and shape in their breasts, our board-certified plastic surgeon in New York City can provide several different remedies. Dr. Ira Savetsky, an extensively skilled and fellowship-trained aesthetic plastic surgeon, can help enhance cleavage using highly effective, long-term solutions including:

Breast Implants: Our practice offers high-quality breast implants in a variety of shapes, sizes, and profiles to give each patient the natural-looking enhancement they desire. Our team can help you select the most ideal implant size, type, and fill-material to create more pronounced cleavage in your breasts.
Fat Transfer Breast Augmentation: With fat transfer to the breasts, Dr. Savetsky can often make the breasts fuller and more supple using your own natural fat cells. The results are usually maximized when fat grafting is combined with implant placement during the breast augmentation procedure.
Breast Lift: Mastopexy is designed to reshape breasts affected by volume loss, stretched tissue, or an elongated look. By lifting and rejuvenating the breast shape, a breast lift may be able to highlight cleavage and give you a more youthful bust.
Breast Augmentation-Mastopexy: For some, a breast lift combined with implant placement can be the best choice to enhance visible cleavage. This option can help the breasts appear fuller and “perkier,” thereby emphasizing cleavage by bringing the breasts closer together.

The level of cleavage possible with breast surgery also depends on anatomical factors, such as shoulder width, the distance between the breasts, and a patient’s natural breast size. If your aesthetic goals include gaining additional cleavage, Dr. Savetsky can speak with you about treatment options to give you the fuller, more voluptuous look you desire.

Dr. Ira Savetsky is well-versed in the different breast surgery techniques to give you the custom contours you desire. Don’t hesitate to contact Dr. Ira Savetsky at our New York City-area practice to book a consultation or to learn about our breast procedures in further detail.
