In a nutshell, I'm a physically active medical student. I'm deciding when I should get the procedure done. I don't want my recovery to interfere with my studies or require me to be completely inactive for a long period of time - if it is, then I'd have to wait until I finish medical school. I was thinking about taking it after my Step 1 (when I'll have down time before starting clinical rotations). What's your input?

Answer: Breast augmentation I appreciate your question.Heres the deal with life, it never gets any easier and theres never a great timeMedical school is the best time to do this since you still have some time off.After second year, your life is never your own until you retireYou will need about a week off to take it easy The best way to assess and give true advice would be an in-person exam.Please see a board-certified plastic surgeon that specializes in aesthetic and restorative breast surgery.best of luck!Dr Schwartz

Answer: Recovery after breast augmentation As tough as it will be to find a time to do your breast augmentation during medical school, it will be even tougher during your internship!You should factor in not only the recovery before you are able to drive, etc., (typically a week) but the overall mental slowness that can occur after any surgical procedure is also a factor.That's not to say it can't be done, but those factors should be considered. Right before a vacation usually works the best... good luck in any event!
