When do I need to start massaging my breasts

By 1midwife on 05 Apr 2012

Hello, y name is Debbie Harmon and I just got a mastopexy and implants done today.  I have had an easy first  day of recovery, but I have some questions.  Do I need to massage my breasts to keep from getting capsulated?  When do I start?   Thanks, Debbie

Hi Debbie,
I found massage to beneficial in several ways...prevention of scar tissue, comforted soreness and the minimizing of visual scars with the use of Bio-Oil. Your doctor is the best source to provide you with the right time to begin massage. xo
