Swimming after 5 weeks with Butt implants?

B
BroudySep 5, 2016

I'm 5 weeks after Butt Implants surgery and would like to go swim in the Baltic See but I don't know if it's to early or not? The Baltic See includes much of salt, don't know if it's important for that question or not. I would be very happy to get some helpful answers. Thanks!
