Considering Implants. Will I be able to continue to workout(kickboxing)Will the implants encounter ruptures or complications?

By Curious_cat on 09 Sep 2011

I am considering implants but I want to know if I can return to my normal workouts after the implants? I do kickboxing, a lot of moving, lifting, push ups but I'm worried that may cause ruptures, complications, or for the implants to burst? I would like to hear feedbacks, advices, and stories. I want to know if implants will be durable enough to withold the workout and mammograph. Thank You so much.

I had a Mommy Makeover which included breast implants on June 14. I am back working out however, I am still using light weights for bench press and skull crushers. I resumed pushups about 9-10 weeks out and they are still a little uncomfortable. My implants are fairly small (287cc silicone) as I am small and active. I run competitively and train hard. I have not yet had a mammogram so I cannot comment on that but I have been told that will not cause them to rupture. Please see my complete recovery journal under Mommy Makeovers from RunningSue.

Good question. Here's what doctors say about exercising after getting implants. And here's some information about getting mammograms after augmentation. Hope this helps!
