If you just had a breast lift and your breasts look or feel bigger than you expected, this episode is for you.
And if you are considering a breast lift and wondering whether it will change your size, this episode is also for you. A breast lift cannot make you bigger. What you are seeing and feeling is swelling, and it is completely normal.
Board-certified plastic surgeons Dr. Smita Ramanadham and Dr. Ashley Amalfi answer this exact viewer question and walk through everything you need to know, from what swelling actually looks like after a lift, to the recovery timeline, to what you can do right now to heal faster.
Including one tip about your post-surgery diet that most patients have never heard.
What You’ll Learn:
- Why a breast lift can never make you bigger and what’s actually happening when it feels that way.
- The difference between a lift, a reduction.
- Why asymmetric swelling can happen when different procedures are done on each side.
- The two most important time markers in breast surgery recovery: three weeks and three months.
- How compression, sleep position, and lymphatic massage help reduce swelling.
- Why your diet after surgery matters more than you think — and the sodium connection most patients miss.
