 
Many
women with minimal drooping of the breast can
have a simple nipple elevation carried out as
an outpatient surgical procedure, the nipple
is elevated about 1.5 to 2 cm above its existing
level to enhance its aesthetic appearance.
Preparing for the Operation
Products that contain Aspirin, Vitamin
E, or Evening Primrose oil should be avoided for
four weeks before surgery.
Strong alcoholic drinks should be avoided before
surgery.
Important: Patients should not
smoke for two weeks before surgery and for a few
days after surgery. Smoking interferes with the
circulation of blood to the skin and can cause
death of the skin flaps.
On the day of surgery, the patient should
wear comfortable, loose clothing. A button up is recommended.
Patients must not wear any make-up (including
mascara and nail polish) when they go into surgery.
If the patient tints, dyes or bleaches his or
her hair, this should be done no later than one
week before surgery.
Surgery is done under local or general anaesthesia.
Post Operative Care
- Take two days off work.
- Takes 2 weeks to resume normal activity.
