Breast uplift at ISCARE clinic in Prague is the right choice for women of all age groups. There are several reasons for which breasts lose their shape and elasticity. These are most likely due to pregnancies, after rapid weight loss or simply as a part of the aging process. 

This surgery lifts the breasts up and simultaneously the nipple and the areola are positioned in a more upper part of the breast. The overall volume of the breasts stays the same, only some excess skin can be removed and areola can be reduced. If necessary, the breast lift can be combined with augmentation, or reduction. In some cases, increasing or decreasing the breast size may help to stretch the skin and to lift the breasts up. The patient can send photos in advance to get the first opinion from the doctor over the email, but it is always up to the actual personal consultation at our clinic to finalize the decision of how to approach the surgery. All the time, the patient’s wishes are heard and followed so that the final outcome is to full satisfaction of the client. 

• Prior to the breast lift, there is a detailed discussion with the surgeon about which approach to take and what exactly you expect as an outcome.  
• You will be informed about the surgery duration, possible risks and the postoperative care. 
• Before the surgery the patient undertakes an examination by our internist (blood test, ECG, evaluation of health status).  
• The whole operation takes approximately 2-3 hours and is done under general anesthesia.  
• Since this is a large, significant surgery, which includes removing of the tissue, the hospitalization is normally 1 to 2 days.  
• After the surgery a special support bra should be worn for 8 weeks.  
• The patients experience some pain for a few days after the surgery, which is treated by medication. 
• For at least two months, the scars should not be exposed to solar radiation (no sun bathing or solarium). 

The length of time you will be off work depends on your job, but is usually between 2-6 weeks.
