I'm interested in getting a Breast augmentation....(under the muscle, nipple incision). I work in IT so I'm pretty much sitting at a desk all day. I will only have to carry my laptop around to meetings if anything. Is 4 days enough recovery time?
Answer: 4 days post op, some advices: Thanks for sharing your concerns with us.Its early to talk about final results.In my practice, after performing a BA I recommend to my patients to limit the movement of the arms for two weeks. After that, you can move your arms taking care and always with common sense. In this regard, it's not advisable to carry heavy weights to prevent the implant out of position, and allow the formation of the physiological capsule around the implant, also to avoid pain and breast swelling.Kind regards,Dr. Emmanuel Mallol.-

Answer: Returning to work after breast augmentation. Thank you for your question. Every patient recovers differently, some may take just a few days to feel good and ready to work, some may take longer as they may be a little less pain tolerant. If your job does not requiere any heavy lifting or much use of your arms then you could be able to return to your job after 4 days of recovery. You definitely have to choose your surgeon correctly and make sure that he/she has the training and experience to meet your goals with absolute safety. Don’t settle for less than a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon with specialized expertise in this procedure.

Answer: Can I return to work a 4 days after a breast augmentation? Since it is hard to predict how you will feel at four days after a sub-pectoral breast augmentation, you should plan on taking a week off. You're only having a breast augmentation once, so give yourself enough time to recover, even if you have a sedentary job. If you feel great at four days, then maybe you could return to work but you should plan on a week's recover.

Answer: Breast augmentation recovery Sure, for most patients who have a desk job 4 days should be enough recovery time. One of the main concerns is that you are not driving and using pain medication at the same time. Other than that, if you are feeling up to it you could easily return to work in 2-3 days.

Answer: Can I return to work 4 days after breast augmentation? Thank you for your question and congratulations on your decision to pursue surgery. In most cases patients are off of prescription pain medication by 4 days after surgery and assuming you neither will push, pull or lift anything heavy while at work it is possible. See a board certified plastic surgeon in consultation to discuss your options.
