"What is Minimum Recovery Time for Breast Lift with Augmentation?"

By gbgirls on 30 Jan 2012

I am planning a vacation to Aruba in June and wondering if 2 months is long enough time to recovery properly so I can enjoy myself. Also, I am working on losing my last 10 lbs before I schedule surgery. If I am 10 lbs from my goal weight will that make a huge difference?  Would love to hear from somebody who has recently had lift with augmentation and see how they are healing and when they felt like they were vacation ready.

Hi there,

I've never had a breast lift or aug myself, but it sure seems like 2 months would be fine. I don't know about heavy exertion. You should ask your surgeon about that. But if you're most going to be lying on the beach, reading books, and going to dinner, 2 months should be good. Also, I don't know that 10 pounds would make a huge difference in your breast work. Again, check with your surgeon. You can also post a question to the doctors in RealSelf's Q&A community about this.

Good luck! And please don't forget to start your story in our Breast Lift Review Community!
