Our virtual consultation process can save you a trip into our office in Miami by allowing you to complete the process virtually. Afterwards at your initial surgical consultation expect to provide your complete medical history, a list of all current medications, allergies, as well as if you have had previous surgeries. Photos and video will be reviewed by our plastic surgeons to determine the best surgical plan for you. Once you place your surgery deposit and have a date to have surgery with our center in Miami, you will undergo an extensive physical exam, blood testing, as well as an informed consent process. Our experienced and highly trained staff will also take “before” photographs to aid in planning and structure of your Breast Lift here in Miami. We will then give you detailed instructions to prepare for your procedure, including precautions regarding certain medications, alcohol consumption, and detailed hygienic protocols.

All procedures here at our new, state of the art facility at the South Florida Center for Cosmetic Surgery in Miami are performed under general anesthesia administered by a board-certified anesthesiologist. The first step of the Breast Lift procedure is to remove excess skin. Afterwards your highly-skilled surgeon reshapes the existing breast tissue into a more contoured shape, and positioned higher on your chest, and the nipples are also positioned (or corrected based on your personalized surgery plan). Then sutures will be strategically placed for minimal scarring, and surgical dressings, bandages, and compression will be applied.

  After breast lift surgery, expect to experience some discomfort as your anesthesia wears off. Here at our Miami clinic our goal is to keep you as comfortable as possible, so your plastic surgeon will provide you with a plan to mitigate any pain or soreness, including medication. Avoid unnecessary bending, lifting, or straining within the first week after your procedure. You will also wear a specified surgical bra for the first four weeks. Please consult your surgeon, our patient advocates, and staff about any questions.

After the first week of recovery time, try to avoid strenuous activities for the amount of time your surgeon and our staff advise for you based on your specific surgery plans. Most people can resume normal activities (that don’t include excessive lifting or bending) within the first two weeks. The schedule for follow-up office visits are 1-day, 1 week and 1 month after the procedure then as advised by your surgeon.
