I've head that you need to wait 3 months for the final result and even up to a year for best results to judge how your augmentation came out. How long does the initial post-op swelling/inflammation last? ***i have a wedding three weeks post-op :):)

Answer: Breast augmentation/Swelling post-operatively Many thanks for your question. Swelling does take in general three months to finally settle however within this time period the maximal swelling experienced in the early days following surgery does improve considerably. A stable result on the whole is seen at six months though factors such as technique used does play a part. You will be able to attend that wedding though can expect obviously swelling still at this time. All the very best with things!

Answer: Breast augmentation postop swelling Thank you for the question. The early phase of healing takes a few days and it can be less with Arnica use. You will see good results immediately after surgery but you are right swelling will go down gradually over the next few weeks. The early final result is at about 3 months. During this time the muscles release and the implants will finally drop. All these are averages and your healing time could be slightly different but I think you may be okay to attend the wedding 3 weeks after the surgery. However ask your doctor for more specific advice. Best of luck!Dr. Khuthaila
