Breast lift operations are for restoring the youthful contour of your breasts. But they shouldn’t be mistaken for breast augmentation operations as they do not increase the size of your breasts. If you want to achieve tighter breasts, then a breast lift is what you are looking for. But how long do breast lift results last?
The results of a breast lift operation usually last for quite a long time. But it isn’t very easy to say for sure for each case. This is because each woman’s experience is distinct from one another.
What Should You Expect?
As we have just explained, how long the results will last depends on the patient. However, studies show that some patients report results that last decades. How long your results will last depends on many factors such as age, genetics, health, diet, and the surgical techniques that your surgeon implements. There are, however, some things you can do to guarantee longer-lasting results.
Maintain a Healthy Skin
The first factor is the elasticity of your skin. However, it is mostly related to your genetics. But it would help if you improve your skin elasticity nevertheless. The first thing you could do is to avoid being exposed to the sun for extended periods. Too much contact with direct sunlight can change your skin texture, causing it to lose elasticity. Losing your skin elasticity means more wrinkles and sagging on your skin. You can also take vitamins C and E to improve your skin elasticity.
Avoid Sudden Weight Shifts
Losing or gaining too much weight in short notice will never yield beautiful results. It will also adversely affect your breast lift results. You should control and maintain your weight delicately. This way, you can achieve longer-lasting results. If you are not in your desired weight, then you should first attain it before getting a breast lift. Later, try to keep yourself in that weight range so that you don’t run into any problem.
If you are planning on having children in the near future, then delay your breast lift operation. Pregnancy and breastfeeding can also have negative effects on your results.
Wear Better Support
Most women don’t enjoy wearing bras as they are rather uncomfortable for some. But bras can actually help extend the effects of your breast lift. Not wearing the most-fitting bras or even avoiding them altogether will hasten the sagging process. Be sure to find the best support for your breast. Also, you should always wear sports bras while exercising to get that extra support.
