Is pole dancing safe when you have breast implants? (Photo)

Thanks for your question. Any activity before your surgery won't matter or affect your surgery prior but once the revision is completed, we suggest patients to wait a period of 3-weeks before getting back into their regular routine and at least one month for any high impact exercise. It's important to discuss your particular circumstances in great detail with your surgeon and to follow their recommendation carefully after your surgery.

Thank you for your question.  Discuss your concerns with your surgeon and follow his/her recommendations.  I would recommend 6 weeks before strenuous exercises. Best wishes.  

Thank you for sharing your question and photograph and best wishes on your upcoming procedure.  Though there is little that you need to do before surgery other than maintain a healthy diet of lean protein and fruits and vegetables, afterwards I would avoid heavy chest exercises for 8 weeks.  This will allow your surgical results time to mature sufficiently so as to avoid possible recurrence.  Hope this helps.

The best answer to your question is to have a detailed discussion with your surgeon- who is going to be doing quite a lot of technical work on your revision.What you do before the surgery will unlikely matter.  Until your revision is completed, the exact details of what were done are not yet defined.  He or she will guide you.  Since you are going under the muscle and using Alloderm, care must be taken post op to allow the pocket to sufficiently heal to avoid any further displacement issues.  Pole dancing engages the pect muscle quite a bit- Ask your doc!!In good health,Ellen Mahony, MD

What you do before the surgery shouldn't really affect things.  Afterwards, however, I usually recommend six weeks of no exertion with the upper chest and shoulders.  After that point, it is unlikely, though not impossible, that a trauma will displace things.  Ultimately, you need to discuss limitations with your surgeon who is performing the procedure.Best of luck!

I generally recommend that patients avoid strenuous exercise for 6-8 week post operatively. This allows for organization of scar and offers some measure of resistance to displacement.Excessive physical activity is a risk factor for malposition etc. in the early post op period before a capsule has developed. Afterwards, it is unlikely to play a significant factor. Although, over the long term, strenous pectoralis muscle contraction can play a role in the longevity of a particular result.As always, discuss your concerns with a board certified plastic surgeon (ABPS).

While having breast implants normally would not pose any after surgery restrictions, having a revision surgery that involves the correction of bottoming out will. To best prevent the risk of recurrent bottoming  out, you should avoid strenuous activities of the arms/upper body for up to 8 weeks after the procedure.

Thank you for your question. This need to answer by your operating surgeon. It varies and it is a revision and depending on complexity and healing. Usually 6 weeks. Please check with your PS

You have to allow it to heal first. It can take about 6 weeks to heal from the breast augmentation. Best to ask your surgeon as each one may have different post-op instructions.

I would discourage you from pole dancing after revisional breast implant surgery.  Pole dancing creates a significant amount of force and contraction of the pectoralis muscles which could disrupt the repairs that you're having done.  Discuss this with your surgeon before surgery.
