Is it safe to go home right after Breast Augmentation surgery ?

Thank you for your excellent question.  In most cases, patients return home the day of surgery, and have little issue in the way of complications developing.  I recommend patients use their discretion as to what would give them the best piece of mind.  If you would be more relaxed and less anxious by staying overnight nearby your physician's office, I think that it is a wise move.  Best of luck on your surgery!

A breast augmentation is an out patient procedure so yes, it is safe to go home right after.  You would need a ride from surgery, someone to be with you at home over night to help you and watch over you, and a ride back to your surgeon's for your post-op appointment.  Being that you live 4 hours away and that your post-op appt is typically the next day, some patients choose to stay overnight somewhere closer so it's easier and then do the drive home.  ac
