What is breast lift?
Over the years, it is very common for breasts to lose their tone and firmness and begin to sag as a result of age, weight fluctuations, pregnancy and breastfeeding. Although breast lift surgery does not make the breasts larger or fuller, this procedure helps slow the effects of aging by tightening the skin of the breasts. Also, breast lift surgery can be helpful in reducing the areola, which is the darkly pigmented area around the nipple (nipple) of the breast. Breast lift can also be combined with breast augmentation, especially for women who have lost their breast volume due to pregnancy or weight loss.
The breast lifting operation is performed in the operating room under total anesthesia and lasts 2-2.5 hours. After the intervention, it is recommended to stay in the hospital for 1-2 nights in order to continuously monitor the patient. The aesthetic surgeons of the DaVINCI Clinic perform the breast lifting intervention by leaving a thin cicatrice (mark) around the breast nipple and in the lower part of the chest in the shape of _I_. The result after the operation is a lifted and taut breast. Breast lift surgery can be performed in combination with other aesthetic interventions, such as breast augmentation with prosthesis or fat.
Pre-Operative Preparation
- On the day you perform the consultation with the surgeon, you must inform the surgeon if you are allergic to any medication, as well as refer to the doctor if you are taking any medication for health reasons that may influence the performance of the surgical intervention
- A few days before the operation, you will perform a series of pre-operative examinations which inform the medical staff about your health condition before the operation;
- At least 2 weeks before surgery, you must stop taking drugs containing Acetylsalicylic Acid (such as Aspirin, Vivin C, Cardiospirin, etc.) and stop taking oral anticoagulants. Discontinuation of any therapy due to surgery must be consulted in advance with your doctor who prescribed the therapy;
- Smoking must be stopped at least 2 weeks before the intervention;
- The patient must have taken a shower, remove gel or nail polish products the day before the operation, and not consume food or liquids at least 8 hours before the intervention;
- We recommend that patients wear comfortable clothes with buttons or zippers on the day of surgery.
After the operation
Patients undergoing breast augmentation surgery must stay overnight in the hospital under the care of medical staff. Three days after the operation, the patient must come to the Amo clinic to have the wound treated. A patient who underwent surgery for breast augmentation with a prosthesis reports tightness and pain in the chest area, especially in the first few days. This is as a result of positioning the breast implants under the pectoral muscle. Most patients leave the hospital with empty stomachs. After 2-3 days from the operation, the removal of the chest drains by the Clinic’s medical staff is planned.
After the first month, the immune system begins to create a wrap around the prostheses, isolating the latter. It is precisely this moment when the patient begins to no longer feel the prostheses as a foreign body, as over time the body begins to consider them as part of the organism, which makes it possible to return to normal activity. During the recovery period, it is important to keep special recipes that serve to keep the chest immobile. We advise you to avoid heavy physical activities for 3-4 days after the operation.
