How long until a long drive after Breast augmentation?

You should avoid driving after anesthesia for least 48 to 72 hours, and avoid driving while taking pain medication or muscle relaxers or any medication like Phenergan. If your implants are being placed under the muscle, you might need to avoid driving for up to a week.  If your drive involves a lot of heavy traffic, it might be best to wait a week, or find someone else to drive.

Hello there I suggest you spend the first night in a hotel near the operating theatre .And then drive home the next day .You'll feel much more comfortable that way .I assume someone else will be doing the actual driving ??CheersTS

It's always best to check with your surgeon about his or her protocol. I have had patients go home the same day as surgery with as much as a five-hour drive. It's important to buckle up; the seat belt won't harm your implants. For comfort, some patients have placed a small square or rectangular pillow between their chest and the upper-body seat belt. For more information on this and similar topics, I recommend a plastic surgery Q&A book like "The Scoop On Breasts: A Plastic Surgeon Busts the Myths." Good luck.
