I am a week and a half after BA, 460cc under muscle and still have some bruising and swelling on the right breast. I have masturbated in the last couple days and nothing feels wrong. Before surgery I was having sex with my bf once-a few times a day, everyday. When will I be able to have gentle sex again, and was pleasuring myself a bad idea?
Answer: Is masturbating and daily sex "safe" 1,5 weeks post breast augmentation? yes and no Thank you for asking the question that everyone wants to ask but shy to ask.There is no firm rule but you should ask your plastic surgeon or his/her nurses.In my practice, self-masturbating is safe 1,5 weeks post surgery but I would restrain from very active sex with your partner (unless you are completely passive) for a good 3-4 weeks post surgery, especially since your implants are under the muscles. There is a still a slight possibility of post-op bleeding now. My answer is the same with gym and other sports, shovelling in the winter, etc.Hope this helps!Kind regards,Dr. Marc DuPere, aesthetic plastic surgeon

Answer: Sex and masturbating after breast augmentation, is that a bad idea? Your plastic surgeon will always be your best resource when it comes to specific instructions in regards to returning to activities. Generally speaking, best to limit strenuous activity for at least 2 weeks after breast augmentation surgery, assuming you are doing well and there have been no complications. Having said that based on your description, there has been no harm done... Care should be taken during the first two weeks after surgery not to allow for elevation of heart rate, blood pressure, and/or direct trauma/contact to the chest wall. Generally speaking, most my patients are able to return to lower body exercise at the 2 week post operative mark, wait to lift/run for about 4 to 6 weeks after surgery. Other exercises, involving the pectoralis major muscles, may resume several months down the line, if not longer. In other words, start slow and "listen to your body" as you gradually progress in intensity/duration of all activities including sex and exercise. Best wishes.

Answer: Recommendation Hello. Thank you for your inquiry and congratulations on your surgery! It is important to have an in-person medical assessment regarding this issue as it is difficult to determine virtually. Continue to update your doctor in the matter and follow their post-op protocol. It is important to get cleared by your doctor before engaging in specific physical activity before the 3 month healing period has ended as the healing stage is crucial for healthy results. It generally takes around 6 months to a year to see your final results. Your tissues will take time to relax and allow your implants to "Drop and Fluff" settling into place. Our tips for recovery following breast augmentation are to wear a supportive sports bra for 3 months post-operative and refrain from lifting anything heavier than 10 lbs for 3 weeks as we don't want any strain at your incision sites. Make sure to keep the area of your stitches clean by cleansing with hydrogen peroxide daily. Showering is encouraged! But, no sitting in water for 2 weeks following surgery (no baths, hot tubs, pools etc.). Please note that this response does not substitute patient-doctor relationship.
