You can imagine clients will be touching my boobs a lot. I personally know a stripper woman that performed at the bachelor's party 4 days after the operation and she had some of the most beautiful boobs. But I also have been warned by some fellow workers that I better save for 2 month regeneration period and to stay off the treadmill and I'm a fitness junkie!! I can't imagine just doing nothing for so long. So what's the reality?

Answer: When will I be able to get back to work after augmentation? Thank you for your question. Each patient's return to work will differ based on their speed of recovery as well as the responsibilities of their jobs. I ask patient's to not pursue any activity that will increase their heart rate or blood pressure for at least two weeks as this can increase their risk of bleeding. After two weeks patient's can begin their physical activity level with light walking and gradually increasing intensity on a weekly basis thereafter. Speak to your surgeon about your concerns, they will offer you the best recomendations.

Answer: Breast Augmentation: Recovery Dear Ms. Malwa,Thank you for your questions.I personally think recovery is more rapid with intraoperative injection of local anesthesia and postoperative use of a non narcotic pain pump.Every Plastic Surgeon has their own recommendations.Here are mine:1) fist 2-3 days take it easy at home and "ice" the breasts2) begin displacement exercises as pain permits. Breasts immediately look good in bra or bathing suit but need to "seat" to look good in the nude.3) Return to work when you feel you can. Earlier for non required upper body users and longer if your arms are needed. Good judgment prevails.4)first 6 weeks exercise as pain limits5)after 6 weeks exercise without limitations6) 2-3 months for breast implants to "seat"I suggest you make several different consultative appointments with experienced Plastic Surgeons who are Certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery and who are ideally members of the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (denoting by membership as having met additional criteria and a focus on Cosmetic Plastic Surgery).My best wishes, R.
