BREAST LIFTING SURGERY
A breast lift restores a firmer, perkier, and more aesthetically pleasing shape to sagging breasts. This not only can improve a patient’s appearance by restoring her youthful, feminine proportions, but also help bras and swimsuits fit more comfortably and attractively.
By removing excess, stretched out skin, reshaping the breast tissue, and raising the nipple & areola into a more forward position, a cosmetic surgeon can create a more youthful breast contour. Stretched, large areolae can also be reduced during breast lift surgery, creating an overall better proportioned, natural looking breast.
In normal cases, the nipple stays above the fold line at the bottom of the nozzle. However, over time, the nipple begins to descend into the breasts that lose their elasticity and tissue volume. In this case, the most effective and permanent solution is breast surgery. The breast lift surgery is an remodeling, which gives a perfect fullness and a perfect stiffening for breasts that have lost their volume and shape. You can obtain great results with breast lift surgery performed by experienced doctors in Turkey.

Before Breast Lifting Surgery
Before undergoing the operation, choose a skilled and experienced surgeon you trust, who is able to perform the surgery in a modern facility that is equipped with advanced medical equipment. It is very important that you discuss every aspect of the procedure and what you can expect with your surgeon beforehand. You might also be required to send pictures of your breasts so that the surgeon can assess your condition prior to your first meeting. Make sure you listen carefully to your surgeon’s opinion and voice any concerns or questions you might have.
Prior to the surgery itself, you must:
- Inform your surgeon of all your medical conditions and allergies.
- Inform your surgeon of the medication that you are taking
- Inform your surgeon if you are suffering from hypertension
- Avoid aspirin and any medication containing aspirin or derivatives of aspirin such as NSAIDs or anticoagulants for 2 weeks or as advised
- Refrain from smoking for 2 weeks, as nicotine can affect your response to the anaesthetic and complicate your healing process

Process Of Breast Lifting Surgery
Under general anesthesia, the breast lift operation lasts approximately 2 to 3 hours and is performed in the operating room. During the operation, the collapsed breast tissue is reshaped, the excess skin is removed and the nipple is brought to where it should be. The surgical technique varies depending on the degree of sagging of the breast. However, whatever the technique used, there is no trace left on the breast. Although the marks are very visible and red the first months, they pale in the following months and become less noticeable.
The silicone prosthesis is applied to patients who experience slight sagging and slight breast volume during the breast lift operation. Breast reduction is also performed in patients with excessive sagging and breast volume. The silicone prosthesis is applied to patients who have both a breast volume problem and a sag.

After Breast Lifting Surgery
You will be wrapped in bandages and gauze dressings after surgery. These bandages will be removed the next day or a couple of days after the operation and the drainage tubes will be removed. All the incisions will be covered with water-proof bandages, so you are able to take a shower. The area must be kept dry, especially after showering. If there are no complications, you will only need to stay 1-2 nights in the hospital and follow up with your surgeon 1-2 times before returning or flying back to your home country.
If the surgeon did not use dissolvable sutures during the operation, your sutures will be removed within 7-10 days. For dry skin a moisturizer, especially Vitamin E cream, is recommended. Applying cold packs can also help reduce the swelling and bruising. You can apply scar-minimizing cream along the incisions after the wounds heal completely, which is usually 2-3 weeks after surgery. There are many brands on the market, so ask for a recommendation. It can help lessen the scarring.
Life After Breast Lifting?
Breast lift surgery is typically performed as an outpatient procedure using general anesthesia or local anesthesia + intravenous sedation. The procedure takes about 1-2 hours to perform, depending on the extent of surgery. You will be able to go home shortly after surgery to continue your recovery. Your breasts will be bandaged or placed in a surgical bra.
Most patients experience some soreness and swelling after breast lift surgery. Your cosmetic surgeon will prescribe pain medication to help keep you comfortable, and many patients find they can switch to Tylenol after the first few days.
While you’ll be able to get up and walk around the house the same day of surgery, take it easy for the first few days. Also, expect to sleep on your back for the first several weeks or more after surgery. If you normally sleep on your side or stomach, invest in some extra pillows to help keep you from turning over.
