Answer: Recovery after breast augmentation Your symptoms could be normal. More than 90 percent of my patients feel well enough to return to work in an office setting by the 5th day after surgery. Always a good idea to keep your surgeon in the loop.Dr. Ted Eisenberg, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon and Author

Answer: Feeling dizzy! Dear Jennisal. It's not normal to feel dizzy (and nausea and headache) after a breast augmentation. It sounds like you might be dehydrated or your body's telling you that it's too early for a full day of work. I would suggest you consider going home early, but have somebody drive you home! It's also possible if you're taking medications for pain that these can make you dizzy as well. You better to plan for a few more days off and better hydration. Talk to your plastic surgeon on advice with your medications. See my video link below for more tips on the recovery process. Congratulations and best wishes, Dr. ALDO
