I'm 37 years old. After having baby, I have ended up with loss of volume and loose skin on my breast and flat look. I'm disappointed with my looks and am considering Breast Implant with Breast Lift.Thought of pain and complication scares me to hell. How painful can the procedure be? The look of ugly scars and capsular contracture and other complications makes me uncomfortable.Please help me in deciding and let me know if there is a way or procedure with less pain or quick recovery for Breast Augmentation. How is pain or discomfort minimized to little or no pain at all by painkillers? Thanks.
Answer: Breast Lift with Implants pain All the previous expert posters have tried to address the issues of pain degrees and possible complications in quite good detail. My feeling is the Internet is NOT the forum to try and convince you that there are no risk, no pain, no complications in having ANY cosmetic surgery, especially breast implants + lifting. You NEED to see in person at least 3 board certified plastic surgeons so you can get a three dimensional experience of a real hands on evaluation and develope a relationship with these surgeons. Over the Internet, this one dimensional experience, does you an injustice and also us, the expert posters. Regards.

CONTACT NOW Answer: Pain Most Severe-- First 24-48 Hours. Pain Tolerance Varies... It’s not unusual for patients to experience pain following combination breast augmentation/breast lift surgery. This pain is usually related to elevation of the muscles during sub-muscular breast pocket formation. In addition, spasm of these muscles can contribute to postoperative discomfort, as well.The pain associated with this combination procedure is severe in the first 24 hours following surgery, but rapidly diminishes with time. We typically use a synthetic Codeine derivative called Hydrocodone, which has a decreased incidence of nausea compared to Codeine.We replace narcotic pain relievers with Tylenol as soon as possible following surgery, to avoid the potential for drug problems.We also use muscle relaxants in the immediate postoperative period.Pain tolerance varies from patient to patient following surgery.If you’re considering this procedure, it’s important to discuss pain management with your surgeon prior to surgery.

Answer: Pain after breast augmentation with lift
I place a large amount of long acting, local anesthetic in the wound after virtually all of my operations and thus 95% of my patients never take pain medicine. Instead, we recommend Valium, with or without Tylenol.
While you will be sore for 1 to 2 days, it's tolerable and most patients return to an office job in 3 to 5 days.
