Are you allowed to eat after a breast augmentation?

Thanks for your question.  There are no dietary restrictions after surgery.  However, I recommend starting with clear liquids and advancing your diet as tolerated.  I advise my patients to eat lots of healthy proteins, vegetables, and fruits so that your body has the nutrients that it needs to heal quickly and appropriately.  Best of luck to you. 

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.
