Post-surgery, your breast lift incisions will be protected by surgical glue that naturally flakes off over 2 to 3 weeks. Once the glue is gone, Dr. Brownlee will start you on a comprehensive scar care routine tailored to maximize your healing. It’s crucial to avoid soaking in baths or swimming pools for the first 6 weeks after surgery to prevent complications. Your incisions start healing within a few weeks, but it does take a full year for scars to fully fade, flatten, and blend in with your surrounding skin. Rest assured, Dr. Brownlee will be by your side every step of the way, offering her expertise, support, and guidance to navigate this transformation with confidence.
