Before the operation:
- Your doctor will ask you about your current and past medical condition, the medications and supplements you are taking as well as any surgery you have had previously.
- The doctor examines and takes pictures of the breasts, and determines the appropriate surgical procedure for them.
- Discuss with your doctor your expectations and hopes for the operation and what end result you desire.
- You should refrain from smoking and drinking alcohol for at least 30 days before the procedure.
- Fasting completely for 8 hours before the procedure.
This procedure is suitable for the following conditions:
- Healthy individuals with flexible skin.
- Who suffers from sagging breasts and nipples facing downwards?
- Breast sagging after childbirth or after weight loss.
- Breast sagging due to aging.
- The areola around the nipple is expanded to a degree inconsistent with the breast.
About the process:
Anesthesia in this process is general or local depending on what the doctor decides.
As for the incision that the doctor will make, it will be one of the following types:
- Incision around the areola.
- An incision around the areola descends vertically towards the bottom of the breast.
- An incision around the areola descends vertically towards the bottom of the breast and then horizontally around the perimeter of the areola area.
After making one of the previous incisions, your doctor lifts and reshapes the breast tissue to improve the overall appearance of the breast. The doctor repositions the nipple and areola in the right place and in harmony with the appearance of the new breast.
In some cases, the size of enlarged areola is reduced by removing the excess skin surrounding them.
Finally, the excess skin is removed, the rest of it is tightened, and then the incisions are closed. The procedure takes about an hour and a half to two and a half hours.
After a breast lift:
- Small tubes may be placed in the breast to drain excess fluid and blood from the body.
- It is necessary to follow the doctor’s instructions on how to take care of the area of the operation.
- Sleep on the back or side, to avoid pressure on the breasts.
- Commit to wearing a sports bra and compression dress to reduce swelling.
- Avoid intense physical and sports activities for several weeks.
- Avoid intercourse for several weeks.
- Take a break from work for 10 days.
