Do You Recommend Lying on a Hard Surface for 15 Minutes a Day 3 Weeks After Breast Augmentation?

Asked By:daisyq88

I had my breasts done 3 weeks ago today. I had 400cc in my left and 425 in my right. I had the dual plane placement. My doctors instructions included me lying on my breasts, on a hard surface for 15 minutes a day. I can not find information on this. What is the reasoning for this and do you recommend this. Some doctors are saying to stay off your stomach fro 6 weeks. I am just wanting to make sure this is what I should be doing.
