I had a breast augmentation on 9/24 (3weeks ago) and I am still VERY bloated, I look pregnant and feel very uncomfortable. What can I do to alleviate the discomfort and get my stomach back to its normal shape?
Answer: Bloating After Breast Augmentation There are multiple reasons you may still be feeling the bloating feeling after breast augmentation.Most frequently, this is a secondary effect of narcotic pain medications. This is one key benefit my patients receive while utilizing the "24-hour breast augmentation recovery program" among other benefits as they do not require as much, if any, narcotic pain medications and then have to deal with the secondary consequences. Also, some people are more susceptible to the side effects of anesthesia as well as changes in the microbiology of your intestines with the use of antibiotics, and many more reasons. I actually recommend that you stay very well hydrated, consider utilizing a probiotic, ambulate or walk around a great deal and work towards resuming your normal activities as long as you are cleared by your surgeon to do so. I wish you the best of luck.

Answer: Swelling after implants
If you are only three weeks post breast augmentation, it is reasonable to still be swollen from surgery. Give it some time to settle.
