Recovery after breast surgery
Although guidelines may vary from surgeon to surgeon, I advise my breast augmentation patients not to engage in any exercise for at least 4 weeks after surgery. This timeline includes a strict guideline of no work, school or other activities for one full week.
It might seem excessive to stay quiet for so long but it really is an important aspect to the healing process. Within that first week after surgery, we really want to give the body every opportunity to heal...

Recovery Time After a Subglandular Augmentation
In my practice, most breast augmentation patients-be it subglandular or submuscular, are able to brisk walk after 2 to 3 days. They may start light aerobic activity at 7-10 days, and they may return to all activities at 3 weeks. I do ask that they start out lightly and work their way back up to full levels and not just try to start right where they had left off before their surgery. However, each plastic surgeon has their own routine that they know works best for them and...

Recovery after Subglandular BA
After breast augmentation, regardless of where the incision is made, I generally recommend taking a week off to reuperate. It's certainly possible to get back earlier but you run the risk of doing too much which can result in a little more prolonged discomfort and possibly post operative bleeding /hematoma. I have my patients return to non-impact cardio exercise after 3 weeks, and full exercise after 6. I do not like my patients to do any upper chest or arm weights / stretching for 6 weeks...

Subglandular Breast Augmentation Recovery Time
Hi,
Every patient is different when it comes to recovery time but subglandular breast augmentation tend to have a shorter recovery time than the submuscular one.
Usually, the recovery process works its way smoothly and through stages reaching the one month mark where several physical activities could be resumed pretty well with the exception of heavy lifting that I do not recommend unless a full recovery is attained.
Hope this helps.
Thank you...

Recovery Time For Subglandular Breast Augmentation With Areola Incision
Hello and thanks for the question.
I recommend you follow-up with your elected surgeon to discuss his or her post-operative recovery routine for breast augmentation surgery. At our institution, we recommend refraining from lifting anything greater than 10 lbs for a period of 4 weeks. Modest lower body exercise may be ensued at 2 weeks and upper body workout restrictions are placed for 4 weeks. In general, most people return to work at a weeks time, but recovery courses...

Recovery after sub glandular breast augmentation
Generally speaking recovery after sub glandular augmentation is straightforward. I advise my patients to wear a sports bra for about 6 weeks. Return to work in about in about 6-7 day depending on their occupation and recovery. Return to full activity after 6-8 weeks. I also advise you to follow up with your plastic surgeon and follow his/her instructions. Each surgeon has their own post operative regiment and you have to adhere to the instructions of your surgeon.

Subglandular implant and periareola incision recovery
Each patient will heal differently, but in most cases patient can go back to light duty( desk work) within the week. It takes a few more weeks to go back to light exercise.

Subglandular breast augmentation recovery is very rapid
Hi there-
Assuming you understand the drawbacks to placing your implants in this location, know that the recovery from this procedure is usually fairly easy and rapid.
Because it seems we all have our tried and true routines by which our patients achieve the best, most easy recoveries, I would recommend you ask your chosen surgeon what you should expect- only he/she will be able to describe what is the usual recovery for his patients with this operation.

Full recovery for all acivities will require 3 weeks
After 2 to 3 days following subglandular augmentation I would permit my patients to return to a sedentary type of occupation. If their work is more physical, such as a hair stylist or waitress they would require 7 to 10 days to feel comfortable enough to perform their duties. To return to health club routines such as jogging and weight lifting I require waiting unitil 3 weeks post surgery.
