The good news is the recovery after the Breast Lift procedure is fairly benign.

I would say that over 90% of our patients come back and tell us that they did not need any pain pills after about two to three days.

I will tell you that you will probably have a little bit of soreness on the chest area for about one to three days. I expect you to be walking immediately after surgery and most patients are able to go back to a desk job three to five days after surgery.
