Will my breast lift leave scarring?
How will a future pregnancy affect my results?
Breast and nipple sensations may be significantly affected in the days following your breast lift procedure if your areola were repositioned during surgery. Temporary numbness and hypersensitivity are commonly reported, but these side effects typically resolve as your breasts heal. Changes in breast sensation can last for months or years after your surgery but don’t hesitate to contact us if you’re concerned about any numbness or sensitivity you’re experiencing.
On its own, breast lift surgery will not significantly impact your breast size. Without implants, your breasts may appear slightly smaller due to the removal of excess skin and tissue that causes sagging, but the overall effect will make them look firmer, perkier, and more youthful. If you want to increase the size of your breasts or add fullness, a breast lift with augmentation is recommended to help you achieve your aesthetic goals.
The amount of scarring will depend on which breast lift technique we use, but incisions made during a breast lift procedure are small and strategically placed to minimize their appearance. Any surgical scars from your incisions will gradually fade and flatten over time to become less barely discernible.
Due to the physical changes that occur in the body, pregnancy could impact your breast lift results. Weight fluctuations can have a similar effect. Because many women inquire about breast lift surgery to reverse the effects of pregnancy, we recommend waiting until after you’re done having children to schedule your procedure. However, every woman’s body responds differently to pregnancy, so you can discuss how your plans fit your aesthetic goals during your initial consultation.
