Possible Breast Uplift Surgery Side Effects



Cosmetic surgeries are truly helpful in enhancing or correcting how someone looks physically. Yet aside from the wonderful results one can get from these operations, there are also possible side effects afterwards just like in getting a breast uplift surgery. These risks must be addressed properly by your plastic surgeon so you’ll be aware of the changes your body will feel following your mastopexy.

For instance, days after you had your breast uplift surgery, your breast will become tender and sore. Don’t worry though because the bruises and swelling will slowly subside as you heal. Moreover, you will be given antibiotics cream to soothe any pain you will experience after having the bust procedure.

Below is a list of rare but well-known health dangers that may affect a patient who have undergone a mastopexy:
  1. infection
  2. negative reactions to the anesthesia
  3. excessive bleeding
  4. longer time for the wounds to heal
  5. loss of sensation at the nipple and areola area
  6. unsatisfactory results
  7. the need to have a second, third, or even more corrective procedures
  8. development of deep vein thrombosis
  9. hematoma or excessive internal bruising which can be remedied by removing the stitches and wash out bruising beneath the skin
If you intend to have children and wants to breastfeed them following a breast uplift surgery, then this cosmetic procedure is not for you because it can affect your ability to nurse a baby due to the removal of most milk ducts leading to the nipples during the operation. Nipples sensation can also be permanently gone.

With regards to scarring, the hard to eliminate ones are the ‘T’ marks located below the breast while the stitches you’ll acquire after your mastopexy will easily disappear. However, those who won’t cease smoking following a breast uplift surgery will need more time to heal and will also develop prominent-looking marks on their busts.


Mr. Adrian Richards of Aurora Clinics talks about how a Breast Uplift procedure is carried out. A breast uplift is an operation to lift and re-shape sagging breasts, giving a firmer, more youthful-looking bust line.
