Women opt for breast lifts in Nashville to improve the look of their breasts, stop rashes from developing where the skin meets and to make it easier to buy bras and other clothes. It is common for the procedure to be combined with breast reduction and breast augmentation.

Why We're Nashville's Top Choice
During Your Breast Lift Surgery
Your breast lift surgery will be conducted at The Atrium, a specialty operating facility at Centennial Hospital. The procedure takes about two hours and is done under general anesthesia. Most clients will return home the same day as the procedure. You will need to have someone else drive you home.
Breast Lift Recovery
The recovery period will look different for each patient. However, you should anticipate swelling and bruising, as well as general discomfort. You will need to take a week off from work and other activities so that you can rest and heal. A special bra will be worn to support the breast and encourage the best possible results.
After the first week, you can resume light activity, returning to your usual routine within about 6 weeks. Keep in mind that your healing process may take more or less time than others. Always listen to your body and attend your follow-up appointments with Dr. Davis.
Breast Lift Results
There may be a noticeable change in your breasts directly after surgery. However, this is not the final result. Swelling needs to go down first, which can take 6 months to go away fully.
If you are ever worried about how you are healing, do not hesitate to call the office. Chances are what concerns you is perfectly normal, but we are always here for you.
