How soon can I return to work after Breast Augmentation? I work as a dancer/pole dance instructor.

Asked By:Roxy Onthepole in Indianapolis, IN

I am a dancer/pole dance instructor. My doctor offers a 24 hr recovery program. I am going to try my best to stick to it. My question is: how soon can I dance again (without pole)? And how soon can I pole dance again?
