11 Things You Need To Know About Breast Lift Surgery

One of the plastic surgeons at Biolite Clinic Dubai, who specializes in body contouring and cosmetic and reconstructive breast surgery, said this. While researching breast lift surgery online, I came across blogs that discussed the operation. This blog contained shocking amounts of false information. As a plastic surgeon, the presentation of lies as fact appalled me deeply. This blogger wasn't the only one, either. I laughed out loud (yep, did a true LOL!) at some of the stuff that was being handed forward. It is concerning that women will read these blogs and take them seriously. I therefore decided to write a "rebuttal," as it were. My goal is to debunk the falsehoods spread by this specific blog.

Breast Lift Truths

  • A breast augmentation is not the same as a breast lift. ACTUAL! Breast lift Surgery in Dubai raises the entire breast to a more youthful position, while a breast augmentation gives the breast additional volume. The nipples point forward rather than toward the floor due to factors such as aging, fluctuations in weight, and changes that occur before having children. An augmentation, which involves placing an implant concurrently with the breast lift, is another option for a breast lift. Many women choose the augmentation procedure to restore fullness in the top portion of their breasts and enhance their form. An implant can bridge the gap between your breast and your push-up bra.
  • You may have drainage issues. Although the majority of plastic surgeons do not utilize drains, this may be the case. At the Biolite Clinic Dubai, breast lifts and breast augmentations rarely require the use of drains. Thus, don't be concerned about them.
  • They will appear larger than anticipated. ACTUAL! For the first several weeks, the swelling will be larger than expected. This discomfort is a result of edema. Your plastic surgeon should always explain what to expect when you speak with them. You will have swelling if you undergo surgery; this is normal.
  • Bras. Your surgeon will fit you into a post-operative bra. ACTUAL! Continue wearing it if it feels comfortable; it reduces edema. If the underwire bothers you, get a bra without it, as it can hurt your incisions. Look for one that provides support without being overly compressive. During the first six weeks, avoid spending a lot of money on bras. Your breasts will change because they are enlarged. After you recover, save your money for brand-new, attractive bras.

Breast Lift Falsehoods

  • Your nipples will be amputated. WRONG! The surgeon at Biolite Clinic Dubai let out an internal scream when he read this. They wouldn't receive blood if we removed them completely. They wouldn't be reacting anymore. Breastfeeding a child would be impossible for them. In actuality, the nipples are maintained on what is known as a pedicle, which is a blood supply that includes an artery and a vein so that the areola and nipple may get oxygen and blood. As a result, the areola and nipple are raised, surrounded by soft breast tissue. The mound as a whole rises. "Cutting off" is not an option!
  • It will be painful. WRONG! The majority of patients only use ibuprofen during the first few days following a mastopexy, which is a relatively well-tolerated treatment. Yes, individuals have increased discomfort if they get a breast augmentation in addition to it. It feels like you've done a hundred arm presses or push-ups to truly work up your pectoralis muscles. The discomfort lessens if the implant is positioned above the muscle. The process and your pain threshold will determine all of this. However, as mentioned, the majority of my patients take ibuprofen for the first 1 to 3 days following surgery. Two days after undergoing a breast lift with augmentation, one of our staff members went back to work. By the way, such medication is not advised.
  • You won't be able to do anything for at least a week. WRONG! The night following surgery, you need to be able to move around. After surgery, Biolite Clinic Dubai patients are ambulatory within a few hours. Pain medications that treat inflammation, edema, and nerve pain effectively manage the soreness. As a result, our patients feel quite at ease going about. Yes, for four weeks following surgery, the best breast lift surgeon in Dubai advises not doing any hard lifting, pushing, tugging, yoga, Pilates, marathon training, P90X, etc. Everyday tasks like cooking, shopping, and walking are perfectly acceptable. One of our workers came back to work after two days, as mentioned. Once more, such behavior is not advised.
  • For at least two weeks, you won't be able to raise your arms. WRONG! People, please raise your arms. The shoulder muscles receive no action from us. After surgery, your arms can feel stiff or heavy, but you should be able to lift them. If not, your shoulders may "freeze" in that position, making it difficult to move them. Although Biolite Clinic Dubai surgeons have seen it in young ladies as well, frozen joints are more common in the elderly. To relieve a frozen shoulder, physical therapy and occasionally an arthroscopy are required. Therefore, following surgery, please do yourself a favor and move your shoulders!
  • Avoid using protein supplements, vitamins, or alcohol after surgery. This is a mixed true/false statement. The kind of protein and vitamin powders used will determine everything. Alcohol is not recommended before or after surgery due to dehydration and possible drug interactions. Moderate alcohol use is OK if you are no longer using drugs. Dehydration and poor wound healing might result from excessive alcohol use. But it's not bad to have a glass of wine with supper. As far as the vitamins are concerned, they are diverse. Before and after surgery, you can take your usual multivitamin (Centrum, One-A-Day, etc.). Certain specialized vitamins (ginkgo biloba, ginseng, ginger, etc.) may raise your risk of bleeding after surgery. Consult your clinic on the vitamins. Protein powders don't hinder recovery and can be used both before and after surgery.
  • For the first several weeks, you will need to sleep with your head up. WRONG! Within 24 hours, the majority of Biolite Clinic Dubai patients are lying down in bed. It's acceptable if you choose to sleep higher, but Biolite Clinic Dubai believes that would be unpleasant. In the beginning, most women slept on their backs. Biolite Clinic Dubai suggests a body pillow that might provide some support if you sleep on your side.
  • You may have sporadic shooting pains. ACTUAL. The implant and your nerves are simply incompatible. WRONG! Do you disagree with the implant? Even so, what does that mean? The microscopic nerves that were severed during surgery are beginning to "wake up" and regenerate, which is why the shooting sensations are occurring. When the swelling subsides, these tiny nerves come into contact with soft tissue because they are no longer floating in the swollen fluid. Then, the nerves randomly shoot, causing a sharp, aching pain. This symptom is typical and will improve. After surgery, the aches often begin four weeks later and last for three months.

This summary encapsulates some of the facts and myths found in the well-known blog presenting false information regarding breast lift surgery. Whether they have an implant or not, most women are thrilled to have breast lift surgery. Breast lift clinic in Dubai is Biolite Clinic Dubai, where no patient has ever said that they wish they had never undergone surgery. The majority of women are content when their breasts are "back in position." Having said that, your plastic surgeon's instructions serve as the most valuable guidance for any procedure. He or she will provide you with knowledge and guidance that are unique to you. Professional plastic surgeons are aware that each person is unique. Please conduct thorough research, seek consultations, and place your trust in your plastic surgeon to guide you through the procedure and the healing process. Do us all a favor and quit consulting Biolite Clinic Dubai, despite its allure.
