Is there any insight on infrared sauna use post breast augmentation surgery?

July 17, 2018
Asked By:AustinHawaii in Austin, TX

We have an infrared sauna where I can control the heat level (75-150 degrees). I’d like to use it to detox all of the anesthesia and post op meds out of my body. Is there any insight on being able to begin using this if I set the temperature at a lower setting than what is typical? I’m 3wks post op.
