Before Breast Lift with Implants Procedure
There are several things you might have to do in preparation of the surgery, including:
- Get lab testing or a medical evaluation
- Take certain medications
- Quit smoking
- Refrain from taking aspirin, anti-inflammatory drugs, or any supplements as it may increase bleeding
Your doctor will also discuss with you regarding breast size and fullness, and any concerns you might have about this. A complete medical history will be taken, as well as any family or personal history of breast cancer and if you want to breastfeed in the future.
You should also ask your surgeon about specific questions you might have about the whole procedure and process, including activities you can do, when you can return to work, and what to expect.
Your surgery might take place in the hospital or a surgical center. It is also best to have someone that would drive you to and from the surgery, and stay with you throughout the procedure.
