How To Maintain The Results Of A Breast Lift

Maintaining The Results Of Your Breast Lift

Eat Well
Eating a well-balanced diet of healthy foods will benefit the results of your breast lift in a multitude of ways. Eating plenty of fruits and vegetables and avoiding fatty or salty foods will benefit your overall health and help to reduce signs of aging, keeping your skin youthful and healthy. Eating right will also prevent your weight from fluctuating, which can cause the skin to stretch and sag. Eating well doesn’t mean going hungry; make sure you are eating healthy foods such as whole grains, fruits, vegetables, and fish (full of good, healthy fats!) to maintain a steady weight. If you find yourself getting hungry throughout the day, try eating smaller portions more frequently instead of eating 3 large meals.

Be Active
Exercising is a great way to stay healthy, which will in turn help keep your skin healthy and keep your breast lift looking great even as you age. Building strength in your chest muscles will also greatly help get the best results out of your breast lift, as developed chest muscles will keep your breasts in a lifted position. This will help prevent the breasts from sagging and will keep them perky.

Stay Hydrated
Proper hydration is vital both inside and out. Using a high-quality moisturizer on your breasts will help to keep the skin firm and will slow down signs of aging. Some creams and serums also contain ingredients that can stimulate collagen production and help your breasts stay naturally lifted. Moisturizing the skin from the outside is great, but also make sure you drink plenty of water. Staying adequately hydrated will help prevent sagging and the development of stretch marks while keeping your skin nourished.

Consult With Your Plastic Surgeon
If you are considering a breast lift, it is always beneficial to speak with an expert. An experienced plastic surgeon can explain how a breast lift will alter your breast shape and will discuss your desired outcomes. Your plastic surgeon can also explain other options available to you, such as combining your breast lift with a breast reduction or with breast augmentation, depending on your goals for the procedure. If you are concerned about how to maintain the results of your breast lift for years to come, don’t hesitate to ask a qualified plastic surgeon.
