I'm a teacher and would like to have breast enlargmenet surgery at the start of the christmas break, this would mean I would have 2 weeks to recover. Is this long enought, or do I have to wait for the 6 week summer holiday?
Answer: Time off from teaching Generally, I advise patients that they can start doing more intense physical activity at 3 weeks, and upper body strength exercises at 6 weeks after surgery. If you don't lift heavy things in your job or things like that, then you can probably return to work in a week or two if your recovery is going well and your job is sedentary. However, you should ask your surgeon as they may have different guidelines.

Answer: Two weeks off for breast augmentation For the type of work you do, two weeks recovery should've more than enough, but always get the final approval from your plastic surgeon. At two weeks, for my patients, the only restriction would be heavy lifting, working out, or sexual activity, for which you would have to wait three to four weeks.

Answer: Is 2weeks Enought Time to Recover Before Going Back to Teaching After Breast Enlargement?
You a cutting it close but it can be done. But you are not going to have a very happy Xmas and New Year while recovering - pain in healing. Best of luck.

Answer: Recovery Time from Breast Augmentation
Average time for pain pill use after breast augmentation is three days. Discomfort may occur with flexion of the pectoral muscle (in a dual plane augmentation) for four to six weeks. Fatigue can last a month after any procedure. Most women return to work in 5-7 days after breast implant surgery, even though they may still feel a bit tired.Your two week break in December should be plenty of time. Let someone else cook Christmas dinner this year and enjoy this gift to yourself.

Answer: 2 Weeks Is Probably Plenty of Recovery Time for a Breast Augmentation
Hi pinkicedcupcake-
Regardless of breast implant type, or breast pocket placement above or below the muscle, your recovery time should be less than 2 weeks. With use of numbing medicine right before your procedure, and given through a pain pump for several days after your procedure, you should be able to get back to teaching within 1 week, and probably less.
The ability to have pain medicine dispensed under your skin, right in the area of surgery, really helps you to feel less pain and recover much more quickly from a breast augmentation. Make sure to ask your plastic surgeon about these "tweaks" which help with pain relief!
Best Wishes,
Roy
