Will I be able to return to my job as a firefighter after recovering from a breast augmentation?

In my experience it is safe for patients to return to work, even vigorous work such as a firefighter, 6 weeks after surgery. Usually wounds are healed well and are strong enough to tolerate heavy exercise or heavy work at this point.

Hello, thank you for your question. I allow my patients to return back to normal activity at 3 weeks post of with the exception of chest workouts. Once my patients hit 3 months they are all pretty much back to normal routines at that point. You will be okay to return back to work at 2 months, I would just recommend to wear good bra support while you are at work.

In my experience, in general, no problem. Dr. Ted Eisenberg, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon and Author. RealSelf Distinguished Hall of Fame Inductee. Philadelphia, Pa., USA
