About Breast Lifts
A Breast Lift is also known as a Mastopexy, but can be often confused with similar procedures like Breast Augmentation.
Often combined with other procedures to enhance the shape, profile, and appearance of the breasts, mastopexies are one of the most commonly performed procedures in the United States.
Once you’ve decided that a breast lift is the best fit to properly address your unique needs and concerns, your surgeon and the medical team will have a conversation with you about your recovery during the pre-op appointment and on the day of your surgery.
The recovery period after breast lift surgery is vital to achieving your long-term aesthetic goals – as the surgery itself. If you are not sure where to start, ContourMD® is here to help. The design of our breast lift compression garments are tailored to compliment your aesthetic goals and individual anatomy. ContourMD© provides high-quality body lift compression garments that will cater to your individual needs with compassionate comfort, body contour and soothing relief to the skin.
The Stages of Healing
Learn about the stages of healing and what your body goes through after surgery to understand why the right breast lift compression garment is critical to reaching the results you are looking for.
Stage I Garment
2-3 weeks after surgery
The healing process begins immediately after your breast lift surgery.
Once the procedure is finished, bandages, a compression garment and surgical drains are placed and adjusted to ensure proper fit by the surgeon or someone from the medical team. It is very beneficial to rest, relax, and let your body heal properly after surgery.
A Stage I breast lift compression garment promotes healing by lessening the amount of fluid build-up, reducing swelling, and preventing bruising. It can provide stability to the treated areas, while also keeping the surgical site together. This will improve the outcome of the body’s contour, and minimize the appearance of scarring. The compression garment will also reduce the risk of infection. During Stage I, you should wear this garment at all times, except when you’re either bathing or in the shower.

Stage II Garment
1-2 months after Stage I
Gradually, as you recover you should notice less and less fluid in the tissues.
This is when you will want to switch to Stage II for your breast lift compression garments.
A Stage II compression garment will help in keeping optimal compression on the treated area(s). This should improve your comfort level significantly, so you’re able to return to some lighter activities. Before your surgery, your plastic surgeon will go through all of this with you, and will also be given detailed post-op instructions. If instructions are followed and your breast lift garment is properly worn, there will be noticeable and immediate improvement. It is crucial to wear your compression garment after surgery to achieve optimal results.

What is a Breast Lift?
Whether your breasts have lost volume over time after having children, or overnight due to removing breast implants, a breast lift is a great surgical solution to restore your confidence and even help in getting your clothes to fit better!
