Can I wax breasts after breast augmentation?

Asked By:sara2607 in England, AR

This is embarrassing but I have fine dark hairs on my breasts which I get rid of by waxing. I am due to have a breast augmentation in a couple of months. I know I won't be able to wax them immediately after surgery but further down the line when they are fully healed would this be a problem? If it is, is there any form of hair removal that is ok e.g tweezing, depilatory creams etc. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
