I had breast augmentation on February 9th 2012 400CC / silicone / under the muscle / incision around areola. No problems at all, no pain and i feel great! I normally sleep on my side so, it has been hard to stay sleeping the whole night on my back. When is it safe to start sleeping on my side or on my stomach? I worry that if i try sleeping on my side or stomach I might wake up with the implants towards one side, capsulated, deform or even pop it. Could it be painful if i try another position?

Answer: Sleeping after a breast augmentation I always recommend my patients to sleep on their back for at least 4 weeks so the implants can heal properly and remain in the correct place. I also recommend sleeping in a specific post op bra for 3 months.

Answer: How long do I have to sleep on my back following surgery? Following your surgery, the best position for safe sleeping is on your back with your upper body slightly elevated. This position can be achieved by propping some pillows underneath which can help breast swelling and soreness.
