Overview

The breast Lift operation is a completely safe and simple surgery. It aims to remove excess or sagging skin and change the breast shape to make it tight and round, resize the areola or lift the nipples up by tightening the breast tissue.

Aesthetic medicine for Breast Lift has developed and included many methods used by doctors and plastic surgeons to conduct a breast lift operation. The doctor determines the best method according to the woman’s condition and desires, as well as the type of skin tissue she has.

Candidates for Breast Lift Operation

Many women desire to get a tightened breast, but the candidates for Breast Lift operation are limited to the following list:

  1. Women with sagging breasts or skin appendages in the breast area.
  2. Women who had a significant weight loss, which resulted in breasts being sagged.
  3. Women suffer from nipples falling below the breast level.
  4. Frequent pregnancy, lactation, and changes in hormones lead to a change in breasts shape which results in recommendations to undergo a Breast Lift Operation.
  5. Cases of areola expansion. The areola is the dark halo that surrounds the nipples.

With aging, breasts become saggier, and breast shape changes completely, so a Breast Lift Operation is to be conducted.

Pre- Breast Lift Operation Tips

Following the advice dictated by the doctor before the Breast Lift Operation is one of the most important factors that lead to a successful Breast Lift Operation. Such devices are as follow:

  1. Refrain from applying any type of moisturizing creams for at least two days before the Breast Lift Operation.
  2. Stop having stimulants of all sorts, such as caffeine or Arabic coffee, for at least two weeks before the Breast Lift Operation because they affect the anesthesia process and make it difficult to anesthetize a woman who drinks stimulants frequently.
  3. Avoid smoking entirely for a month before Breast Lift Operation because it narrows the veins and reduces the rate of oxygen in the blood.
  4. Stay away from having any type of blood thinners, such as alcohol and vitamin groups (because they contain vitamin E), for at least two weeks before the surgery to avoid bleeding during the surgery.
  5. Stop having any sort of medications that cause blood thinning, such as Aspirin.
  6. Make sure to have healthy and balanced food for at least two weeks before the Breast Lift Operation.

Post- Breast Lift Operation Tips

Adherence must be done to the advice and recommendations dictated by the doctor to the patient after the Breast Lift Operation in order to reach the best results, such as the following:

  1. Adhere to wear a supportive medical bra for six weeks after the Breast Lift Operation, especially after removing the bandages, for it helps speeding up the healing process.
  2. Refrain from itching or pressing on the breast area for a month after the Breast Lift Operation.
  3. Avoid any stressful physical exertion or exercise, and it is recommended to adhere to complete rest for at least two months.
  4. Avoid carrying heavy objects for four to six weeks after the operation.
  5. Ensure having a relatively stable weight and eating healthy and proper food by following some of the diets dictated by the doctor.
  6. Avoid exposure to harmful sunlight for a month after the surgery.
  7. Keep away from high temperatures for at least six weeks, also avoid a Turkish bath or sauna.

Stages of Breast Lift Operation

Breast Lift Operation is conducted through a few simple steps, which can be listed as follows:

First Stage: Conducting Clinical Examination

The doctor examines the patient’s breasts and determines the final shape desired from the Breast Lift Operation.

Second Stage: Conducting the Necessary Tests

Mammography is performed along with the necessary blood tests. These tests are to identify the rates of blood sugar and to make sure that the woman is free of diseases that hinder Breast Lift Operation.

Third Stage: Preparing the Patient

The medical staff prepares the patient. The doctor layouts the breast and determines the proper place where the nipple is going to be. The anesthesiologist then anesthetizes the patient with general anesthesia in order to avoid her feeling any pain at all.

Fourth Stage: Conducting the Breast Lift Operation

The plastic surgeon opens a small incision in the breast using one of the methods followed in Breast Lift Operation in order to remove excess skin and sagging. Then the bandages are placed on the breast.

Health Tips & Info

We help create a care plan that addresses your specific condition and we are here to answer all of your questions & acknowledge your concerns. Today the hospital is recognised as a world renowned institution, not only providing outstanding care and treatment, but improving the outcomes.

The firmness of your breasts often decreases due to, among other things, ageing, weight loss and pregnancy/pregnancies. The nipple can begin to hang under the breast fold, while the filling in the upper part of your breasts often disappears completely. With a breast lift, your nipple is moved upwards, an implant can possibly be placed, and your breasts become firmer again.
Before the procedure, the plastic surgeon marks the skin where the incisions are made and how the nipple will be placed. The treatment method will have been discussed with you. The excess skin is removed and the nipple is then moved upwards. If necessary, the shape of your nipple will also be corrected. After lifting your breast, the incisions are stitched and covered with plasters. Drains and a pressure bandage may be applied if necessary. You will stay in the hospital for the first night. The drain(s) will be removed the following day.
The breast lift is performed under general anaesthesia, so you won’t experience any pain. The wounds may become painful once the procedure has been completed and you may experience a sore feeling in the chest muscle. This post-pain is temporary and will continue to decrease in the days following the breast lift. You can handle the worst of the pain with a painkiller.
Scars after a breast lift are inevitable. The experienced plastic surgeon will accurately determine the locations of the incisions, so that the scars behind are almost inconspicuous. Scarring depends on the extent of the procedure and the technique used. During a consultation with the doctor, you will learn about what you can expect in the area of scarring.
The plastic surgeon removes excess breast tissue during the breast lift. Your breasts may be slightly smaller than before the procedure. Do you want more volume? The breast lift can then be combined with the placement of implants.
After the breast lift, you will not be able to cycle, lift, exercise or drive for a few weeks. Only after two weeks can you carefully begin to build up these and other tasks. You may then also be able to drive again. Physical exertion and heavy work are that time not permitted. If the surgical wounds have healed after 6 weeks, you can then resume your normal work and activities. All this depends on the nature of your work.
You must bear in mind that this will not always be the case. This depends on the treatment method and whether mammary gland tissue is also removed. Doctors recommend that you only have a breast lift if you no longer intend to breastfeed.
Small skin nerves may also be cut while the nipple is being moved. Often the feeling of the nipple is preserved and only occasionally is there a decrease in feeling. In a limited number of cases the nipple becomes hypersensitive due to the breast lift.
Smoking has a negative effect on the blood circulation in your skin. Optimal blood flow is important for recovery after a breast lift. The chance of complications and side effects is considerably higher with smokers than with non-smokers. It is advised to stop smoking at least 6 weeks before and 6 weeks after the planned breast lift.
A breast lift is a relatively safe procedure, with the same risks as any other operation. For example, there is a small chance of infections and post-bleeding. Allergic reactions, poor wound healing and a (temporarily) changed feeling in the nipples may occur. Most women who have a breast lift are not affected by these. Always follow the doctor’s instructions to help ensure a speedy recovery.
The results of the breast lift are long lasting. However, natural body ageing is not brought to a stop. Depending on your age, the breasts change as a result. An increase in weight, going through a pregnancy and surgery also influence the size and shape of your breasts. The results achieved with the breast lift are preserved for years and remain beautiful for a long time with sufficient exercise and a healthy, responsible diet.
It is advised to wear a sturdy, seamless, sports bra after a breast lift. Good support is important for the healing process. In the first weeks you will need to wear this bra 24 hours a day. After 4 weeks you can take off the bra while sleeping. When the first 6 weeks are over and the wounds heal, you can choose to use a normal, well-fitting bra.
