If you want to have shaped and rejuvenated breasts which look as natural as possible, and/or are thin and afraid that round implants do not suit you, you should think about breast lift with teardrop implants. 

Preparing for your breast lift with implants, you need to remember about few simple rules that apply to many other plastic surgeries as well. First of all, inform the plastic surgeons about the current medical conditions and medicines already taken daily. Smoking is not a good idea before your breast augmentation surgery, just like in other operations, so you should stop smoking about four weeks before your procedure. Taking blood-thinning medicines such as aspirin, anti-inflammatory drugs, and herbal supplements is also not allowed at the stage of preparing for a breast lift with teardrop implant surgery. 

It is possible that your doctor will demand that you fast for some hours before your breast lift with teardrop implants.

As for breast lift, the type of incision depends on your current breast size as well as the scale of sagging experienced by you. Accordingly, the plastic surgeon will perform one cut under your breast or more cuts, including moving your areolas up. During the same breast surgery, your surgeon places the teardrop implants. Breast lift with teardrop implants is more complicated than a standard breast lift with round implants procedure, so be sure to choose a successful and experienced plastic surgeon for this breast augmentation surgery.

While breast lift with breast augmentation recovery is not short, only the first days may cause some trouble. You will need help even for daily activities and tasks immediately after your surgery. When it comes to working, it's better not to rush and get a few days off. Breast lift with implants procedure will also keep you from sports for several weeks. You should talk to your plastic surgeon to find out exactly when you can continue these activities. Additionally, especially in the first days or even weeks after your breast enlargement surgery, you will need to take painkillers and use a compression garment in order to avoid excessive pain and achieve the best results.

There is a risk of displacement and asymmetry of your teardrop implants. However, this has much to do with the skills of your plastic surgeon. Not respecting and following the recovery rules of breast augmentation is also a common cause of increasing risks and complications. Other risks include a relatively low danger of infection as well as temporary or even permanent nerve damage.

You can experience some swelling and bruising after your breast lifts with teardrop implant surgery, which is normal and will fade gradually, especially with the proper use of a compression garment. Additionally, breast enhancement, like other invasive plastic surgeries, causes some amount of pain which can be eased by using prescribed painkillers.

Breast lift with implants belongs to well-practiced and widely popular breast enhancement methods. The success rate is, therefore, quite impressive with thousands of satisfied patients. However, over the years, some patients may decide to return to their old breast size and appearance and remove breast implants.

If you think that your current breast size and shape do not match the size and shape you want, the breast lift with implants procedure will increase your self-confidence. After your breast augmentation recovery, you will have your breasts rejuvenated and in just the size you wanted.
