A lift reshapes and elevates existing tissue; augmentation adds volume. If you want higher, firmer shape without extra size, a lift may be enough. For more fullness, we can discuss combining a lift with an implant.
Scar placement depends on technique and degree of lift: around the areola (periareolar), around the areola + vertical line (lollipop), or those plus a fold scar (anchor). We plan for discretion and provide a scar-care programme.
Possible changes in sensation can occur and often improve over time. Breastfeeding may still be possible, but it depends on anatomy and technique. We discuss this during consultation and plan accordingly.
Most desk workers return in 7–10 days. A support bra is worn for ~6 weeks. Light walking from day one; avoid heavy lifting and chest strain for about 6 weeks or as advised.
Results are long-lasting, but ageing, gravity, weight change and pregnancy can alter shape over time. Maintaining stable weight and good support helps preserve outcomes; revisions can be discussed if needed.
