After breast implants, what are you allowed to eat or not eat?
Answer: Diet Restrictions Following Breast Augmentation Thank you very much for your question. In general, there are no limitations or restrictions for diet, following a breast augmentation procedure except for salty foods. The salt will tend to make you retain more water and thus swell more which can lead to more discomfort. Depending on how you feel, starting out with a bland diet may help to keep away any nausea that results from the anesthesia or pain medications. As you will be tired and sore the first several days, have healthy, easy to prepare items on hand Also, drink plenty of fluids during the initial recovery period. Your operating surgeon will have his/her own breast augmentation protocol, so follow their advice regarding your recovery diet.

Answer: Recommended Diet Following Breast Implants 1984shay,No particular diet is required. I recommend that my patients eat light the first 24 hours - clear liquids, advancing to a regular diet as tolerated. If you have persistent nausea, stick to a bland diet until the nausea subsides. Avoid foods that can cause a lot of gas. Small frequent meals are best. I recommend that my patients drink 100 grams of protein per day in the healing process for the first six weeks after surgery as this diet aids the healing process. Best of luck!

Answer: Diet There are no restrictions for your diet. The first few days after surgery you may notice a smaller appetite so it's beneficial to eat small, easily digestible meals at first. After that, you can resume your normal diet.

Answer: Breast Augmentation Eating Schedule As with any Surgery that you will be having General Anesthesia, eating and drinking should stop 8-10 hours before your scheduled procedure. Afterwards, you may start off with clear liquids and progress with your diet if you are not experiencing nausea. I recommend that my patients increase their proteins to 100 grams daily when recovering from surgery to assist the body in healing. Good Luck.
