Bruising and swelling of the breasts are common after a breast lift and you can expect to have some discomfort after your surgery. You will stay overnight so that your initial recovery can be overseen by attentive medical staff. Once you return home, you will be advised to rest for several days to provide your body time to heal and recuperate. Most patients head back to work within two weeks of their procedure and can resume their regular exercise routine after four weeks. Most of your swelling should be gone within six weeks, but you may continue to experience minor swelling for many months.","description":"The breasts are an essential feature of a person\u2019s sense of femininity, so when someone is disappointed with the appearance of their breasts, it can affect their overall confidence and self-image. Breast tissue and elasticity can weaken over time, due to genetics, pregnancy, weight fluctuations, or the aging process. Changes to the breast skin over time can lead to mild or pronounced sagging and a body contour that is less than desirable. The surgeons at Lickstein Plastic Surgery use surgical procedures like mastopexy, also referred to as breast lift surgery, to effectively reverse these changes and restore a perkier, more youthful body profile for patients in Palm Beach Gardens, Jupiter, and Port St. Lucie.","url":"https:\/\/www.licksteinplasticsurgery.com\/breast-surgery\/breast-lift\/","preparation":"Before undergoing breast lift surgery, you will have a thorough initial consultation with one of our surgeons to discuss your expectations, preferences, and medical history. This meeting will allow you to develop a customized treatment plan with our doctors to produce the best possible results for you. You will be advised to quit smoking six weeks before your surgery, and you should avoid taking blood-thinning medications for two weeks before your procedure. A healthy diet and ample hydration leading up to your surgery day will also provide your body with the nutrients your body needs for healing.","@id":"https:\/\/www.licksteinplasticsurgery.com\/breast-surgery\/breast-lift\/"}
