I work in a fast paced restaurant and usually lift heavy trays, plates, and ice buckets. I plan on getting breast implants sometime next year, but I was wondering how long I should take off work after surgery?

Answer: Getting back to work-- 3 weeks for heavy serving. It's important to follow your surgeon's protocol. Your timeframe for returning to work depends on what your job entails. More than 90 percent of my patients go back to work on the fifth day after their cosmetic breast surgery if they work in an office setting. Women who must use their arms to lift, push or pull (such as nurses, hairstylists or waitresses) normally return to work toward the end of the second week, around the 14th day after surgery. More intense upper body at least 3 weeks. Dr. Ted Eisenberg, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon and Author. RealSelf Distinguished Hall of Fame Inductee. Philadelphia, Pa. USA

Answer: How long should I be out of work as a server/waitress? I plan on getting breast implants next year Hello, thank you for your question. Each surgeon has his or her own guidelines for recovery. Typically, patients can return to light duty in 5 to 7 days. More active work may take 3 to 6 weeks. Consult your surgeon as he or she understands the scope of the surgery and the specifics about you.
