 Breast Lift Recovery Time

Breast lift recovery time can very.  Some patients will recover in quicker  time than others, but we've found that most of our patients return to work around one week later. If a larger breast lift procedure is performed along with the laser bra, your breast lift recovery time can take up to one and a half weeks or even two weeks.  Even if a patient has returned to work, they have not completely healed. It's common for our patients to return to normal activities in around three weeks time.  Any kind strenuous exercises on the chest could be postponed for up to six weeks.  Please give us a call if you have anymore questions about breast lift recovery time.

Beyond Breast Lift Recovery

Beyond breast lift recovery.  Dr. Stevens developed The laser-assisted internal fabrication technique, which uses The Stevens Laser Bra for a successful breast lift surgery.  With a patient in an upright position, the new position where the nipple will be after the breast lift recovery is marked.  Once the patient is under general anesthetic, incisions are made horizontally and vertically, following the natural contours of the breast. The laser is then used to preserve the pedicle of the breast tissue which will support the nipple. During the laser breast lift surgery the entire breast and the nipple are lifted. Excess fat, tissue and skin are removed from each side of the breast. Once the breast is repositioned, the incisions are closed with dissolving sutures under the skin making your breast lift recovery as painless as possible.

This procedure does not increase the risk of breast lift surgery. If anything, there probably is less risk in terms of the anesthesia. 30-40 minutes are saved off a breast lift utilizing this laser procedure, so the patient has less time under anesthesia and will be on their way to their breast lift recovery much quicker.
