You can expect a vertical scar down from the bottom of the areolar/nipple toward the crease under the breast.

These scars usually heal well and fade to a pale, fine line over a year. Some patients do have dark, raised and wide scars. This is unpredictable in general but can often be revised and improved after a few months.

Breast lifts are performed under a general anaesthetic in a day surgery hospital. You can go home a couple of hours after the operation if you’re feeling alright after a period of observation.

Usually, pain is manageable and can be controlled with standard pain relievers. Drains are not routinely used, and dressings are minimal so that a shower can be taken the day after surgery. Sutures are dissolving, so they do not need to be removed.

There is usually swelling and bruising in the first few weeks as the tissues heal. This settles gradually and is usually minimal by about a month after the operation.

For the first four weeks, a support bra should be worn, and no activities should be undertaken that bounce the breast, such as aerobics or jogging. After this time, you can gradually resume normal activities.

Making the decision to have cosmetic surgery is a serious one, and patients considering a procedure should also keep in mind that they need time to recovery, they will need support, and possibly time off work. They may also need other therapies such as massage and compression garments.

During your consultation we will discuss the range of options available to you and recommend treatments that have the best chance of achieving your desired goals. Part of this conversation will cover, in more detail, the types of complications and risks that apply to your specific circumstances. In general, the risks and complications of surgery are:

• disappointing aesthetic outcome
• infection
• bleeding
• scarring
• significant asymmetry (a large difference between sides)
• pain
• change in skin sensation (eg. numbness)
• allergic reaction
• anaesthetic complications
• prolonged recover and wound healing
• collections of fluid

All of these may result in the need for further treatment or surgery.
