How Long is the Recovery Period Following Breast Augmentation?
Following your breast augmentation at Plastic Surgery Seattle, you will experience soreness and tenderness in the chest area that should subside within a few days and can be managed with pain medication. In most cases, non-strenuous work responsibilities can be resumed in just a few days. Most patients will be able to return to daily activities in seven to ten days, but should avoid strenuous exercise and other demanding activities for two weeks to a month, depending on Dr. Gottlieb’s recommendations. Remember, everyone heals at their own pace. During your breast augmentation consultation and exam, Dr. Gottlieb will discuss expected recovery times and give you specific details on what to expect.
