I just got submuscular 400cc silicone implants about 2 weeks ago and am wondering when I can go back into Brazilian Jiujitsu again? My surgeon recommended 6 weeks for weight lifting. Jiujitsu is similar to wrestling; A lot of pushing body weight off of you or pressing body weight pressure onto someone else. My coach mentioned we could light grapple which means light to zero pressure wrestling just so I can keep up with my submissions and technique.

Answer: BBA After BBA most patients can return to a light duty job in one week , and heavier duty jobs in 4-6 weeks depending on the activities required. Wrestling is certainly very aggressive and I would think that your surgeon would want you to wait at least 6 weeks. Please discuss this with him/her. Good luck

Answer: #plasticsurgery #breastimplants #augmentation Congratulations on your recent surgery and thank you for sharing your question about your post operative recovery and results after your surgery. Final results can take 6-12 months for all the swelling to subside. At our office we actually see all of our surgery patients the very next day after surgery and then again at two weeks and beyond. We enjoy staying closely connected to our patients and enjoy giving the extra attention and service. Your concerns are important to discuss directly with your board certified plastic surgeon. He or she will appreciate the open communication and will want to help you. I hope this is helpful and wish you all the very best. Sincerely, Brian S. Coan, MD, FACS
