From Consultation to Recovery: What to Expect in Breast Surgery

16 September 2025
Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) is a comprehensive procedure that enhances buttock aesthetics while removing unwanted fat from areas like the abdomen, flanks, and thighs.

Breast surgery, whether reduction, augmentation, lift, or both, can transform both appearance and confidence. At OgeePlast Clinic, we guide you step by step, so you know exactly what to expect before, during, and after your procedure.

The Consultation

Everything begins with a personal consultation. Your surgeon will review your health, examine your anatomy, and discuss your goals. Together you decide on the implant type, size, and placement, or whether a lift or reduction is best. This is also the time to ask about recovery, scars, and costs, ensuring you feel fully informed.

Preparing for Surgery

Preparation includes medical tests, stopping smoking, and avoiding certain medications. At home, it helps to arrange support and prepare a recovery space with comfortable clothes, pillows, and essentials.

The Procedure

Breast surgery usually lasts one to two hours under general anaesthesia. At the end, a supportive surgical bra is placed to protect the results and limit swelling. Most patients go home the same day or after one night.

Recovery Timeline

In the first week, swelling and tenderness are normal, and rest is key. In two weeks, many women return to light work, though sports and heavy lifting must wait up to 4 weeks. Around three months, the breasts settle into their final shape, and scars continue to fade over time.

Risks and Safety

While complications like bleeding, infection, and wound dehiscence are rare, choosing an experienced, board-certified surgeon is essential. At OgeePlast Clinic, strict European safety standards are followed to minimise risks and ensure a smooth recovery.

Final Thoughts

Breast surgery is a personal journey, and the right care makes all the difference. From consultation to recovery, OgeePlast Clinic provides expert guidance and support, helping you achieve natural, long-lasting results.
