Can I go cliff diving with breast implants, nose job (dcF) and chin implant?

I suggest speaking to your surgeon first before doing so. He/she may have different post op instructions/restrictions. Regards,

HI orange I would suggest that you wait for at least 3 months before engaging in such activities. You could really do some damage to your nose and chin implant with the diving ..Please talk to your surgeon and follow his/her advice.Best,Dr. Christine Rodgers

I recommend to my patients that similar activities are ok after 3 months from surgery. Always best to check with your surgeon's protocol.Dr. Ted Eisenberg, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon and Author

Thank you for your questions. Cosmetic surgery is not intended to limit one's life and activities. However, the timing of such activities is important. I would not recommend pursuing any kind of strenuous activity for at least 2-3 months after the procedure. Make sure you discuss the timing with your plastic surgeon.Best of luck!

Dear orangeteslaa,you didn't tell us when was your surgery. I tell my patients not to lift anything more than 8lbs for at least two weeks after BA. Follow your plastic surgeon's advice but I do not recommend more than walking for at least 4-6 weeks. But every plastic surgeon has his own postoperative protocol which he recommends to his patients. I would suggest you to discuss this with your plastic surgeon.Daniel Barrett, MD, MHA, MS

Extreme activities should be cleared by your Plastic Surgeon. You may inadvertently hit the area that has undergone surgery.  This could severely compromise your results.  So, I would definitely consult with your Plastic Surgeon.

You should ask your surgeon for a "green light" to proceed with extreme sports. I would typically advise a patient to wait 3 to 4 months minimum before such activities, but your surgeon may be more liberal or more conservative in recommendations. Diving to 30 feet should not threaten your implants with rupture per se, but you need to be careful about submerging and activities that require working against resistance with your arms for a month or more after conventional breast augmentation, and even longer if a lift was done. You would also need to take special precautions about how you fit any masks/regulators and how you hit the water from heights in order to avoid severe impact against the nose or chin.

Most surgeons will say you can do most any activity, once you are fully recovered from surgery. Implants are made to hold up under most activities within reason. While everything is healing, that is different story. Only your surgeon can answer when it is okay to go cliff diving.

Hello,
It sounds like you have some fun adventures coming up! Yes, you can do your activities after having surgery however you need to allow yourself generous time to heal.  Typically we advise a minimum of 6 weeks prior to resuming full aggressive activity however with these types of activities I would very likely consider extending that timing as well. It is crucial that you discuss these things with your surgeon so you can plan well. Sometimes it is best to have your procedures done after to avoid the rush.

Of course you can. WHEN you can is a different story. For me, the nose surgery would be the limiting factor on that. Your surgeon can best advise you depending on exactly what is done in your surgery and how your early recovery progresses. Most likely I would venture the recommendation would be in the 6-8 weeks range if bones are moved and/or internal work is done.
