Recovery
It is not uncommon to experience discomfort after the procedure. Swelling and bruising are typical side effects, but these are temporary and subside after a few days. Pain medication will be prescribed to help manage any pain. Normal daily activities may be resumed after a week or so, but strenuous activities should be avoided until cleared by Dr. Boll.Scars
Each breast lift technique uses different incision sites. While some scars are more easily concealed, others may be more visible. Scares tend to fade over time, though they will not completely disappear. Dr. Boll will recommend scar therapies as needed to provide the best outcome.Cost
The procedure cost can depend on multiple factors. It is primarily determined by the specific procedure performed, but Dr. Boll will provide a clear price estimate during the pre-surgical consultation appointment.Pain
Dr. Boll will prescribe pain medication to help mitigate post-surgical discomfort. Any pain felt will subside after the first several days, though some residual soreness may remain. Our office should be notified of any concerns about excessive pain."Dr. Boll, you have changed my life!




What are the risks associated with a breast lift procedure?
As with any surgical procedure, there are risks associated with breast lift surgery. These may include:
- Negative response to anesthesia
- Excess bleeding
- Infection
- Changes in nipple and breast sensation
- Breast asymmetry
- Poor healing of incision sites
Can a breast lift be combined with other breast procedures?
Absolutely! A breast lift adjusts the position of the breasts on the chest. Patients who desire to change the size of their breasts can combine a lift with a breast reduction or augmentation, depending on the size shift desired. A breast lift can also be combined with other procedures; many patients will include a tummy tuck or liposuction as part of a Mommy Makeover. It’s important to note that any additional procedures will change cost and recovery time.
How long will my results last?
Breast lift results are long lasting but not immune to any major shifts in weight or natural aging. Should you gain or lose weight, your breast size may change and cause your breasts to begin sagging again. Heavy or large breasts are prone to become droopy faster than smaller breasts.
Am I a strong candidate for a breast lift?
If you are dissatisfied with the appearance of your breasts and wish them to be positioned higher on your chest, you are likely a good candidate for a breast lift. Additional factors that can determine whether breast lift surgery is appropriate for you include your personal health, your willingness to lead a healthy lifestyle, and your expectations for the procedure. During your consultation with Dr. Boll, she will determine if a breast lift is the right procedure for you.
