Answer: Military service and breast augmentation As a former Army surgeon I can empathize with your concerns about resuming activity after a breast augmentation. I continue to have many military members as patients in my private practice. In general I allow my patients to start exercising again 6 weeks after surgery. This is the time they can start exercising but it will take a while to achieve your high level of fitness.Your surgeon should be willing to provide a letter for you to take to your military chain of command which should clearly spell out your limitations. This letter will be used to make your profile. I specify no running, push-ups, sit-ups, road marches, wearing heavy protective gear (Kevlar, etc.) or field duty for six to eight weeks after returning from convalescent leave. I recommend giving yourself at least 4 months before your next PT test so you have time to prepare. Best of luck!

Answer: Breast augmentation recovery time Thank you for your question. Most patients can return to full activity four weeks following breast augmentation. I require my patients to avoid lifting more that 10-15 pounds for two weeks. Activity gradually progresses from two weeks for four weeks. Extremely strenuous activity such as cross fit workouts should probably be avoided for six weeks.Best of luck,

Answer: Precautions after breast augmentation I would recommend that you wait a full six weeks before resuming strenuous activity such as heavy lifting or going for a run. You may be able to return to normal non-strenuous activities like walking, going out for dinner, etc... as soon as you feel comfortable.

Answer: Full athletic activity is permitted one month after breast augmentation. In my practice, provided there are no complications, you would be permitted to return to full athletic activity one month after breast augmentation.
