Risks Associated With Breast Lift

Also known as mastopexy, breast lift treatment is one of the most popular treatments availed by women from all across the world. Ever since 2000, the surge in demand for the procedure has shot up to 70% approximately and is constantly on the rise. Breast lift treatment is more popular than surgically planting breast implants, and is quite effective in the long run.

Such a rise in the demand is due to the fact that most women desire the “picture perfect” / “Instagram worthy” body to flaunt. With rising complexity in women, cosmetic surgery has always been among the top reasons for medical travel around the world. Among the most popular countries offering cosmetic procedures, breast lift surgery in India has rightfully earned the fame with the highest success rate among the major countries.

However, even with the most advanced technologies, and experienced surgeons, certain risk factors are always attached to the procedure. 

What Is A Breast Lift?

Breast lift is a non-surgical method of contouring the breasts in women who experience sagging either in the early stages or due to aging. Saggy breasts often look unattractive and cause several complexities in women leading to decreased confidence in both their personal and professional front.

By this procedure, the excess skin surrounding the breasts is eliminated and the rest is tightened to give a youthful physical appearance. On contrary to this, breast implants are implanted to give a more full and plump appearance on the upper region. Breast lift may or may not be paired with implants as well, depending on the needs and demands of the candidates. 

What Are The Risks Associated With Breast Lift Surgery?

Every procedure has its own share of risks attached. The side effects or the potential risk affects very few candidates only. This has a higher chance of occurring in cases where the candidate has a history of serious illness, or chronic disorders that can affect the procedure in some way.  Hence, the common risk factors associated with a breast lift are:

  • Hematoma or formation of blood clots
  • Excessive bleeding, which may lead to fatal blood loss 
  • Infection
  • Risks attached to the anesthesia
  • Changes in the sensation of breast or nipple
  • Irregularities in the shape of the breast
  • Accumulation of fluids
