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.
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.

Thanks for your question. Given what you have described, it is unlikely that you will be satisfied with an only a lift. A breast lift without implants will change the shape of your breast, and sometimes It may be possible to achieve some improved upper pole fullness if an 'autoaugmentation'...
Your nipples are located below the line of your breast fold, which means a donut lift would most likely not provide enough lift. A full breast lift would probably be a better option for you.
Thank you for the inquiry! A Mastopexy can be redone using your old incisions and implants or fat transfer can be done at the same time to add volume. We would love to see you in office or virtually to make sure you're a great candidate for this procedure, listen to your concerns, and create a...
