Preparation

A week before the surgery you will have to visit the doctor to discuss a few things about the breast lift surgery.

  • The doctor would review your medical history to know the current and past medications are taken, a family history of breast cancer, and
    results of mammograms etc.
  • The doctor would examine your breasts to understand the quality of your skin tone and also to know the position of the nipple and areola. The doctor may also take a picture of your breasts for a medical record.

Before the breast lift surgery:

  • Your doctor may recommend you to undergo a mammogram test to check for any changes in the breast tissues.
  • You may have to stop smoking as the use of tobacco can interfere in the healing process.
  • You may be asked to stop the intake of certain medications like aspirin and anti-inflammatory drugs as it can increase bleeding.

Procedure

The breast-lift is a surgical operation that cuts and removes excess tissues (glandular, adipose, skin) overstretched suspensory ligaments, excess skin from the skin-envelope, and transposes the nipple-areola complex higher upon the breast hemisphere. Scars are hidden under the breasts but slight scarring can be visible on top of the breasts.

Recovery

You will have to visit the doctor a couple of times. He will check the blood supply in the breasts and the color of the nipples. He would prescribe a few pain killers in case you experience pain. Within a few weeks your stitches will be removed. The shape and size of the breasts will improve as time passes.
