Breast Lift (Mastopexy) is a surgical procedure aimed at lifting and reshaping sagging breasts to restore a more youthful and perky appearance.
Preparation: Before the procedure, patients should attend a pre-assessment appointment to evaluate their general health and discuss any medications they are taking. It's important to follow specific instructions regarding fasting before the surgery and to arrange for transportation home, as driving immediately after the procedure is not advisable.
Procedure: Performed under general anaesthesia, the surgeon removes excess skin from the breast to lift and reshape them. The procedure typically lasts between 1 to 2 hours, depending on complexity.
Recovery: Post-surgery, patients may experience some pain and swelling, which can be managed with prescribed painkillers. It's essential to begin gentle exercises as advised by a physiotherapist to restore mobility and prevent stiffness. Full recovery varies per individual but generally ranges from a few weeks to several months, during which adherence to rehabilitation exercises is crucial for optimal outcomes.
