To Consider Before Undergoing Breast Lift Surgery

Breast lift surgery in Dubai is also known as mastopexy. Through this procedure, the breast is reshaped to give it uniform symmetry and to enhance the aesthetics. With the help of this surgical lift fallen breasts can be repositioned and the firmness of the breast increased. However, as with any other surgery, there are pros and cons of mastopexy as well. In this post, we will focus on the do’s and don’ts of a breast surgery Dubai.

1. Pre-operation Instructions
The patient should be accompanied to the hospital by a relative or friend who can drive them home after the surgery. Often the patient will opt to spend the first post-operative night at the hospital. Appropriate blood work, mammograms and any other requested exams will be completed and verified by the surgeon and the anesthesiologist well before the procedure.

2. Post-operation Instructions
The patient is advised not to drive, no lifting of heavy objects or strenuous physical exercise for three to four weeks post-surgery day. The Plastic Surgeon will issue a set of post-operative guidelines which you need to carefully follow.

3. Diets
The patient must be fasting for eight hours prior to the surgery. Afterwards the patient should drink plenty of water to avoid dehydration. The anesthesia used during the procedure will take three to four hours to wear off so care should be taken during these initial hours.

4. Medication
One week prior to the surgery, the patient will stop the consumption of vitamin E, aspirin, and ibuprofen. Pain medication and a course of antibiotics will be prescribed post-surgery. The dressings should remain dry, with no seepage from the wounds after the breast surgery Dubai. The patient will visit the Dr’s surgery several times post op for fresh dressings and the checking of the operated site and scars. The patient should keep fresh scars covered as per the Dr’s advice, only removing the dressings when instructed by the Doctor. The patient should also avoid bathing or soaking the incisions until the wound has closed and healed.
