I also need to get back to classes in one week; I'm not sure if the recovery would require more time off?

Make sure you do your research and understand all of the potential risks and complications associated with all of these procedures.

If you end up still choosing implants, I would consider only one body part at a time, given that you mention you need to get back to classes after one week. Good luck--try the... more
