Breast lift cosmetic surgery procedure is designed to create firmer, tighter, and more youthful breasts. The procedure must be preceded by a careful preparation process, which will have an impact on the final outcome. During the initial consultation, the surgeon will provide guidelines for preparation to the patient.

If the patient is diligent about following the preparatory steps, she will have a better chance to achieve safe and predictable results from breast lift. Patients in Beachwood, Pepper Pike, Cleveland, OH, and surrounding locations and suburbs in The Heart of it All have an opportunity to receive a breast lift from remarkable, reliable, and board certified plastic surgeon Dr. Bram Kaufman.

 

Gaining Clarity about Breast Lift

A cosmetic procedure such as breast lift is a personal journey for a patient. She should choose it only when she is convinced about it and not just because someone else suggested it or under some kind of pressure.

During the initial consultation, the surgeon will try to assess what exactly about the patient’s breast appearance and shape may be bothering her. The patient should go through the surgeon’s website and try to acquire a better understanding about breast lift cosmetic surgery as well as the surgeon’s practice.

 

Interacting with Other Patients   

Wherever possible, a breast lift candidate may try to engage with other women who have received breast lift surgery previously and are willing to share their experience. Certain dedicated Internet discussion forums about aesthetic procedures, interactive platforms such as RealSelf and social media networks can help a patient gain practical, real-world information and advice about breast lift.

When a woman listens to the first-hand experiences and tips from other women and enlists community support, it will help her prepare much better for breast lift surgery.

 

Meeting Candidacy Requirements

The surgeon will determine a woman’s candidacy before recommending breast lift surgery to her. An ideal candidate for this procedure should be in good general health and have stable and moderate body weight.

The candidate should not have any near-future plan for a pregnancy or a weight loss program because it can again create loose skin in the breasts and compromise the effects of a breast lift. As a part of medical evaluation of the candidate, the surgeon may order specialized mammograms in some cases.

 

Prior to the Surgery

The patient will be required to follow certain preparatory instructions ahead of the scheduled breast lift surgery:

• Refrain from smoking for a specified time period before the procedure as advised by the surgeon to minimize the risk.
• Avoid taking any blood thinners, NSAIDs, herbal supplements and vitamins for a few days as advised by the surgeon.
• In some cases, the patient may have to adjust the schedule of certain ongoing prescription drugs in consultation with the primary care physician.
• If necessary, the patient should arrange for aftercare and transportation to return home after the breast lift surgery.
• Working women should apply for leave at the workplace for at least one week to have a stress-free recovery at home.
