Who Is a Good Candidate for a Bra Line Lift?

How Long Is the Recovery Period After a Bra Line Lift?
Recovery typically takes a few weeks, with most patients able to return to light activities within 1-2 weeks, though full recovery may take several months.
Can a Bra Line Lift Be Combined with Other Procedures?
Yes, it can be combined with other body contouring procedures, like a tummy tuck or liposuction, to achieve more comprehensive results.
When Can I Go Back To Work?
The average return to work for the bra-line lift is 1-2 weeks.
When Can I Exercise Again?
Dr. Morales introduces cardio and light machines at one month post-surgery. Resumption of full exercising is at two months post-surgery. Postoperative swelling usually persists for months after a bra-line lift.
