My op is scheduled for 6/25/14..And my family camping trip is about a week and a half after the op, in the mountains, @ our cabin... Unsure if I should skip it this year. I don't want to do anything or be anywhere that could potentially mess with my very new boobs!
Answer: Can I be in high altitude a week and a half post-surgery? Hello! Thank you for your question! Altitude and pressure have no effect on breast implants, whether saline or silicone. It is safe to travel by air within pressurized cabins or even scuba dive without concern. No further precautions should be taken during these activities. Certainly, discuss any concerns with your surgeon prior. In the same manner, blunt force will unlikely cause rupture. Repeated trauma from the folding of the implant over time is known to be associated with rupture. Obviously, penetrating trauma from sharp objects will also result in rupture. Both saline and silicone implants are very durable and daily activities will not cause any increased risk to the integrity of the implant. Hope that thus helps. Best wishes!

Answer: Can I be in high altitude a week and a half post surgery? Hi. The answer is absolutely yes. Practicing in Miami for the past 29 years has given me an opportunity to perform breast augmentations on many out of town patients. Often times the patient will go back within the same week as their surgery. Altitude does not affect the healing process. What you need to avoid is carrying heavy luggage whether checked in or carry on. Safe journey and enjoy your camping trip!

Answer: Is high altitude camping safe a week and a half after breast augmentation Altitude should not present a problem for your breast implants or your body a week and a half after breast augmentation surgery. However generally speaking the first 2-3 weeks after breast augmentation you need to avoid strenuous physical activity which camping certainly can involve. I agree you should ask your plastic surgeon for specific advice. However since the concern is in your mind it might be best to skip this year.For more information on breast augmentation please read the following link:
