One of the most common questions women ask about their breast lift procedure is how long they can expect their results to last. While this can depend on a variety of factors, there are a few things you can do to get beautiful results that could last for years to come.
1. Work with an Experienced Plastic Surgeon
The right breast lift techniques can make all the difference when it comes to getting the long-lasting results you want. Make sure you work with a board-certified plastic surgeon who has experience performing this procedure so you can have a great overall experience and get the best possible outcome.
2. Plan Your Breast Lift for the right Time
There’s no right or wrong time to get a breast lift, but there are a few things to keep in mind when planning your procedure. First, it’s best that you complete your family before having a breast lift to eliminate the need for a revision after a pregnancy.
The ideal candidate will also be at or close to her target weight before a breast procedure to avoid drastic weight fluctuations that could negatively affect your results.
Your plastic surgeon may recommend combining a breast lift with your breast augmentation for enhanced results.
3. Always Wear Sunscreen
Sun exposure is one of the leading causes of signs of skin aging, including sagging skin. You can minimize this risk and help to prolong your smooth, beautiful results by being diligent about sun protection. Remember to wear sunscreen when you’ll be spending time in the sunshine.
