It is important to take care during recovery to avoid complications and allow your body adequate time to heal. A post-operative support bra or dressing is used to minimise swelling and fluid accumulation. This also provides comfort and facilitates a quicker healing process.

After the operation, you might experience tenderness, pain, swelling, bruising, and numbness around the areolas. These are normal responses to the surgery, and such symptoms should decrease in the weeks following your procedure. For a typical mastopexy surgery, it may take up to 12 weeks to see the results and achieve full recovery.
