How soon after surgery can I be in a pool and/or ocean (not swim, just submerged)?

bg010
My vacation is scheduled 4.5 weeks after my breast lift/ augmentation surgery. Although I do not want to swim or engage in a rigorous activity, I would like to know if it will be acceptable to submerge my breasts in the water. My surgeon has made it clear that there are no restrictions at 4 weeks post-op, but I have a small separation at the bottom of my areola that seems to be healing well so far (3 weeks post-op).
