How Long to Wait to Have Sex After Breast Augmentation?

This is a very practical question that many of my patients ask me.

The answer to this is quite simple - you can return to sexual
activity at any stage after surgery.

However, the reality is that for the first few days at least after
surgery you will be far too sore to think about that.

My general recommendations about returning to normal physical
activities includes refraining from normal heavy upper body manual
handing/lifting and straining for the first four weeks after surgery.

So with this in mind, you can return to sexual activity at any time,
but for the first four weeks after surgery you basically need to take on a very
passive role.

Also, you are advised to commence breast massaging at
three weeks after surgery to help your breasts soften and settle. So this also
means you and your partner can handle your breasts normally from this stage. You’ll
still be a bit sore, so your body comfort levels will guide you as to what you
should and shouldn’t be doing.

Hi there,
In general, I advise my patients not to engage in any strenuous activities, heavy lifting, upper chest exercise etc for the first 4 to 6 weeks post op breast augmentation. In particular, I also emphasise to my patients that it'll be extremely important to refrain from doing any thing that will raise their blood pressure (including having sex) in the first 7 to 10 days as there is still risk of haematoma during that period of time. 
Obviously common sense apply, even if my patient is to resume normal sexual activity after that period of time, they are always reminded to be extra careful and gentle with their breasts as the healing are still fresh and in early stage and they'll need to be mindful at all times. Otherwise they should be able to slowly ease back to their normal routines.
Hope this helps.

The increase heart rate, blood pressure and dilation of blood vessels that accompany sex or other "activities" are risky in the first two weeks after this surgery.  You don't want to endanger a great result with impatience.
