After Getting a Breast Lift, How Much Weight Can I Loose and Still Maintain the Surgery Results?

I would concur that anything above 20 lbs tends to affect the results in a detrimental fashion.  This has some variability as a 20 lb weight loss in a 220 lb woman may have less of an effect than a 20 lb weight loss in a 120 lb woman.

I would encourage you to loose weight before the procedure.  The shape of your breasts after a mastopexy may change significantly after weight loss.   You may even need to consider the use of implants depending on how much weight you are considering loosing.

Thank you for the question.

The answer to your question will vary from one patient to another (depending on factors such as quality of breast skin elasticity), but (generally speaking)  I suggest that patients be within 10 pounds of their long-term stable weight prior to undergoing elective breast surgery.

I hope this helps.
