Does a breast lift carry any risk?
Although a breast lift is not a simple operation, it’s normally safe when performed by a qualified plastic surgeon. Nevertheless, as with any surgery, there is always a possibility of complications or a reaction to the anaesthetic. Bleeding and infection following a breast lift are uncommon, but these may cause scars to widen. You can reduce your risks by closely following your doctor’s advice both before and after surgery. Although mastopexy does leave noticeable, permanent scars, they’ll most likely be covered by your bra or bathing suit. There is also a possibility that the procedure can leave you with unevenly positioned nipples, or a permanent loss of feeling in your nipples or breasts.
