After having Breast implants, will I be able to go running without affecting the implants?
Answer: Running after breast augmentation Thank you for your question. You definitely want to follow your own surgeon's post-op activity instructions. This is a general guide I give to my patients: 1) No heavy lifting or strenuous activity for 6 weeks. 2) Resume walking at a leisurely pace right after surgery (e.g. 2 mph) 3) At 2 weeks, you can walk 2 miles at 2mph 4) At 3 weeks, you can walk 3 miles at 3mph 5) At 4 weeks, you can walk 4 miles at 4mph 6) At 5 weeks, you can jog 5 miles at 5mph 7) At 6 weeks, you can resume all activities, but listen to your body and use discomfort or tightness as a guide so you don't over do it.

Answer: Safe Yes, it’s totally safe to go running with breast implants once you’ve recovered from your surgery. Just make sure that you’re wearing a good-fitting, supportive sports bra.

Answer: Breast augmentation in athletic women Breast implants should not effect your athletic activities. For runners choosing a reasonable size should have little effect on your running. In athletes, I prefer to use an anatomic form stable implant placed under the muscle. This minimizes animation deformity and looks more natural in running bras or Yoga tops.

Answer: Running after breast implants I tell patients that they can start running about 1 month after the surgery. Running will not affect the breast implants. Women with large implants will usually be more comfortable wearing a tight, compression sports bra to limit the amount of bouncing of the implants.
