After Breast Lift

- When you wake up, your breasts will be taped and you will be wearing a tight bra.

- Drains will be mostly withdrawn in 1-2 days.

- Initially, the breasts will be stiff, edematous and erected. Over time it will soften and descend slightly.

- With the support of your nurse, you will be able to stand up and eat 3-4 hours after the procedure. Please do not try to stand up without the help of a nurse.

- Dizzyness is normal in the first try to stand up. This mostly depends on anesthesia drugs. Drink plenty of liquids (water, juice, tea, ayran, coffee etc). So your blood pressure will rise and you will feel less dizziness. You can lie back or on your side. You should wait at least 2 months to lie on your breasts.

- After the procedure, you can take a shower and wash your hair without wetting your breasts. It will be necessary to wait for the tapes to be removed for a full-body shower. (7-10 days on average)

- You should use the bra we will give you for at least 1 month. Afterwards, we recommend using a tight sports bra for at least 1 month. In the early period, your breasts may have some swelling, bruising and stiffness. Due to edema, a temporary sensation decrease in the nipple and breast skin is normal. This will disappear over time as the edema reduces.

- Since all of your stitches are hidden, melting and aesthetic stitches, they will not need to be taken.

- We recommend that you rest at home for the first 3 days after the procedure. Then you can go out and do your light work. You can return to your deskjob after 7 days. It is important not to raise your arms above shoulder level for the first 1 month. Arms should be next to your body, not too wide.

- You can start light walks after 3 weeks and running after 1,5 months. A minimum of 3 months should be waited for heavy sports that operate the arm and chest area (tennis, bodybuilding, swimming, skiing, pilates and stretching exercises etc). After 1-1,5 months, you can bath in the sea or pool. But we do not recommend swimming movements.

- You should protect the operation area from the sunlight and UV for 6 months. If you are going on holiday or to the solarium during this period, always use 50F sunscreen and cover your stitch areas with tapes. The less the stitches are exposed, the less scars will remain. Even sunlight passing through a bikini or swimsuit can darken the scars.

- For the first week, raise the head of your bed with the help of 2 pillows. This will allow your edemas to reduce more quickly.

- It is recommended that when you go home after discharge from hospital, take the medicines (antibiotics and painkillers) prescribed by your doctor from a pharmacy and use one box each.

- After the dressing and wound healing is completed, you will need to use a scar removal oinment. This oinment should be used twice a day for at least 4 months.

- Every woman should have a breast check at least once a year. Do not disrupt your routine controls.
