How long does swelling last after lift? - JustBreastImplants.com Forums - Breast Augmentation, Breast Implants, and Plastic Surgeons

Hi All,

My left breast pre BA was larger than my right and a little saggy. In order to correct this problem my PS put 50cc's less in my left to make up the difference. I also had a donut lift on my left breast. My left is still larger than my right. I am wondering how long it takes for swelling to go down after a lift. I am 3 weeks out.

Thanks!!

Congrats on your BA and lift! I had also had a Benelli (Donut) lift on both my breasts and I had 50 cc's more put in my right to correct the assymetry. I would say that the swelling lasted a good 4 weeks for me; drinking lots of fluids really helped me. HTH

Thanks so much for your reply. I guess I am just getting a little nervous that they won't end up the same size. I know its still early on, but I think we all tend to freak out a little because we want them to be perfect.

I had a full anchor lift and swelling lasted 3-4 weeks. My avatar is 15 days post-op and still very much swollen.
