I'd like to understand a little more about the procedure's timetable. What is the norm for scheduling? Is it abnormal to plan a surgery a year in advance? Thank you!
Answer: Timing Your breast augmentation after your consult This is a great question. There is no one standard answer to this however, one must consider many real life issues when planning any cosmetic surgery. The trades of pain, cost, scar and recovery time should dictate your timing of surgery. For example, if you are a young mother, a student, or an athlete your recovery time and ability to return to activities oaf daily life need to be planned well in advance. Recovery from breast surgery is usually fast, relatively painless and uncomplicated. However, if you have no time from work, school, or family those factors need to be considered. Planning and budgeting the money for your surgery may also take time. It is hardly ever a good idea to go into debt for a cosmetic surgery. You may require some medical testing and clearances before your surgery, that could take a few days or a week. However, usually patients are young and healthy and require only a pregnancy test and perhaps a mammogram, depending on your age. Surgeon's schedules vary however, as breast implant surgery, does not require a large block of time commitment from the surgeon, they usually can find time at your convenience. It is fine to plan surgery a year or more in advance. However, make sure that you have a follow up exam to go over your choices and any changes in your desires or health. Good luck.

Answer: Planning your Breast Augmentation It is not abnormal to schedule your breast augmentation a year in advance. My patients have scheduled a year in advance to accommodate their work schedules or financial needs. Typically patients will schedule their breast augmentation surgery for 6 weeks following a consultation.
