Nerve Pain Following Breast Lift with Implants, How Long will the Pain Last?

January 18, 2012
Asked By:Loosey

Let me first say that I am extremely happy with the outcome of my plastic surgery and am now six weeks post-op. I had several procedures done at one time: a secondary face lift and a breast lift with 300cc saline implants. The implants were placed under the muscle. I still have a lot of pain on and off (stabbing, burning and extreme skin sensitivity.) Since I workout six days a week and had tight muscles, my surgery was lengthy. I was under anesthetic for 8.5 hrs. How long will this pain last?
