9 Tips To Help Your Recovery From A Breast Lift Procedure

1. In the majority of cases, Dr. Ajaya Kashyap instructs his patients to wear a supporting sports bra or a bra with no wire for the first three weeks. This gives support to the healing breasts and lets the breast heal in a natural way especially when a breast implant is involved. After three weeks, a wire bra may be used.

2. Breast lift surgery is a procedure that requires a two to three week period of no heavy lifting or strenuous activity. The patient can return to work at about a week after the surgery if the job does not require demanding physical daily activities. At two weeks, light lifting is allowed. Activities that are more vigorous require approximately six weeks’ recovery time. For example, pulling, pushing, heavy lifting or any other exercise that demands force must be avoided until Dr. Ajaya Kashyap says it is safe to resume these activities.
