Answer: Post-Surgery Activities and Recovery Timeline Dear Fearless1, First and foremost, I appreciate your reaching out with your concerns. Combining an arm lift with breast augmentation requires careful consideration during the recovery process to ensure both optimal healing and the best aesthetic outcomes. When it comes to resuming intimate activities, such as sex, after surgery: Post-Operative Care: During the initial post-surgical period, it's essential to avoid any activities that can place strain on the surgical sites or elevate blood pressure, potentially leading to increased swelling or even bleeding. Breast Augmentation: After breast augmentation, any vigorous movement, pressure, or strain on the chest should be avoided. Typically, patients might wait at least 2-3 weeks before resuming intimate activities, and even then, one should proceed with caution and avoid direct pressure on the breasts. Arm Lift: With an arm lift, avoiding activities that involve significant arm movement or strain on the incisions is crucial. This includes embracing or using your arms to support yourself or your partner during intimacy. Given your surgery was 5 days ago, I'd recommend waiting a bit longer to ensure that you don't inadvertently strain or harm your surgical sites during intimate activities. A general ballpark would be waiting at least 2-3 weeks post-surgery, but it's essential to listen to your body and, most importantly, consult directly with your surgeon for personalized advice. Remember, while the urge to return to regular activities and intimacy is natural, giving yourself the appropriate time to heal is crucial for both your well-being and the success of your surgical results. With every good wish for a smooth and full recovery. Sincerely, Dr. Katzen

Answer: Sex after breast augmentation Thank you for your question. I generally recommend waiting until all the swelling is down before engaging in sexual activity. So typically two weeks would be fine. However, I would not recommend a lot breast or arm manipulation as part of your sexual activities until you are closer to six weeks.

Answer: Ask Your Surgeon I suggest asking your plastic surgeon this question as different surgeons have different post-op instructions. Your incisions must be completely closed and you shouldn’t have any drains in. That being said, a basic guideline to follow is 3-4 weeks. Best regards.

Answer: Physical activity after arm lift and breast augmentation Have a chat with your plastic surgeon as they will be in the best position to advise you on returning to physical activity based on your individual recovery. In most cases I suggest easing back into your regular routine four weeks or so after survey.
