I am getting a silicone breast implant with a Inframammary incision. I currently have my nipples pierced. Do you think I will have to take the piercings out permanently? And if so, about how long after could I get them repierced?

Dear miss mum, I would check with your surgeon before trimming anything. When a patient has an issue like your's, we sometimes allow them to trim it themselves but always prefer that they check with us first. Good luck!
Thank you for your question. Generally, catheters not needed for breast mastopexy/lift procedures as these are typically a couple hours in length. For longer operations, it is helpful/comfortable for the patient to have and so the surgeon/anesthesiologist don't get wet.Best,Benjamin J. Cousins...
