You're likely to feel tired and sore for a few days following your surgery, but most patients are up and around in 24 to 48 hours. Most of your discomfort can be controlled by medication prescribed by your doctor.
You should be able to return to work within a few days, depending on the level of activity required for your job.
Follow your surgeon's advice on when to return to work, begin exercise and resume other normal activities. Your breasts will probably be sensitive to direct stimulation for two to three weeks, so you should avoid much physical contact until three to four weeks after surgery.
Due to current concerns of insufficient information regarding the safety of silicone gel-filled breast implants, the Food & Drug Administration (FDA) has determined that new gel-filled implants should be available only to women participating in approved studies. Some women requiring replacement of the implants may also be eligible to participate in the study.
Saline-filled implants continue to be available to breast augmentation patients on an unrestricted basis, pending further FDA review.
Breast augmentation can enhance your appearance and your self-confidence, but it won't necessarily change your looks to match your ideal, or cause other people to treat you differently. Before you decide to have surgery, think carefully about your expectations and discuss them with your surgeon.
The best candidates for breast augmentation are women who are looking for improvement, not perfection, in the way they look. If you're physically healthy and realistic in your expectations, you may be a good candidate.
Breast augmentation, technically known as augmentation mammoplasty, is a surgical procedure to enhance the size and shape of a woman's breast for a number of reasons:
By inserting an implant behind each breast, surgeons may be able to increase a woman's bust line by one or more bra cup sizes. If you're considering breast augmentation, it is important to have a basic understanding of the procedure – when it can help, how it's performed, and what results you can expect.
