Can I use nipple clamps after a breast lift? If so, how long do I need to wait before I use them ?
Answer: Nipple Clamps After Breast Lift The answer is yes but you want to wait for full healing and clearance from your plastic surgeon. The safe answer would be to wait three months from the time of your surgery. It may be ok to use nipple clamps prior to three months but it all depends on your healing.

Answer: Breast lift and clamps Hi-Thank you for your question. After a breast lift surgery, the blood supply to the nipple and areola needs to fully stabilize before any type of compression to the nipple area. I advise my patients to wait a minimum six weeks from the time of surgery or until the incisions around the areola are fully healed prior to wearing nipple clamps to avoid any complications at the nipple site.Hope this is helpful.Dr. Rodriguez

Answer: Nipple clamps Yes you can use nipple clamps after a breast lift but you will need to wait until you are fully healed. It is best to discuss this with your surgeon who will advise you when you are cleared based on how you progress through recovery.

Answer: Surgery Your surgeon can answer this specifically, but I would suggest waiting at least 3 months, and perhaps as long as 6. Personally, I would never use them. Ouch!!
