Are Breast Lift Complications Common?
3 weeks ago
I’m worried about the surgical risks. Are complications like infection, bleeding, or loss of nipple sensation common, and how are they usually managed?

Like any surgery, a breast lift carries some risks, but serious complications are uncommon when performed by an experienced surgeon.
Mild swelling, bruising, or temporary loss of nipple sensation can occur but usually improve as healing progresses. Rarely, issues like infection, bleeding, or delayed wound healing may develop, which are managed with antibiotics, proper wound care, or minor corrective procedures if needed.
Following your surgeon’s pre- and post-operative instructions carefully greatly reduces these risks and supports smooth, safe recovery.
