Do you gain weight after breast augmentation?

No, you don’t gain weight after the breast augmentation surgery. However the weight of the implants get added to your weight. 

There are some temporary changes to weight due to the surgery. Swelling, constipation, fluid retention all could effect someones weight after surgery. Body weight should return to normal after one week. The implants themselves weigh 1/2-1 lb each, depending on the size you choose. 

Hello,Thank you for your question. Other than a pound or two related to the implants themselves, there wouldn't be a reason for long term weight gain related to your BBA. In the short term, some people retain fluid for a few days post op.All the best 

Thanks for your inquiry,  a 400 cc implant weighs about 1 pound.  In addition after surgery, you do retain fluids for a little while but that should resolve after a few days.  Good Luck.  

There is no physiological reason why you should gain weight following a breast augmentation, other than by the weight of the implants themselves. In the first few days there may be a little extra fluid around the breasts in the form of swelling, but this will resolve over the first couple of weeks. If you usually have a vigorous exercise regime which needs to be reduced while you recover from the surgery, this also may lead to a little weight gain, but you should go back to your pre-op weight once you get back to your usual exercise routine. Hope that helps!

The only long term weight gain from breast implants will be the 1-2 lbs that the implants weigh.  All other weight gain can be attributed to changes in diet, exercise and aging.  

The only weight you should gain long terms from a breast augmentation is the weight of your two breasts implants combined. There is no physiologic weight gain, except maybe a pound or two shortly after surgery as a result of fluid administered during your anesthesia. If you have gained more than a pound or two in weight six weeks or three months following your breast augmentation the reasons can be many (hormones, dietary changes, less exercise, etc.), but your breast augmentation is not one of them. Don't let "weight gain" be your reason to avoid a breast augmentation if you feel that your quality of life would be enhanced by such. This is the #1 plastic surgery procedure today with about a 98% patient satisfaction. Make sure you consult with an experienced board eligible or board certified plastic surgeon whose aesthetics align with your own when reviewing their before and after gallery. Best of luck to you. 

Aside from the obvious weight of the implants 1 -2 lbs each you should not gain weight after breast augmentation

There is no evidence that you will gain weight from a breast augmentation long term. Initially after surgery yes, but weight gain long term is unlikely.
In my experience, women who undergo breast augmentation surgery are more likely to keep a steady weight and usually keep themselves more fit.

Thank you for sharing your question.  You will initially gain some water weight from surgery but this is temporary and will resolve spontaneously.  The only true weight gain is from the implants you select which can be 1-3 pounds on average.  Hope this helps.
