Your surgeon will use a surgical marker to demarcate the incisions. These markings serve as a guide or road map for your surgeon, as your breast shape will change once you are lying down on the operating room bed. Surgical markings are an essential part of obtaining good results. For a breast lift, markings determine where your nipple-areola complex will end up. You don’t want them to end up too high on your breasts or you will not be able to wear V-neck, scoop neck or low-cut shirts or blouses.
