I am going to be getting my augmentation in 2 weeks now and for me its that time of year that the lake and water is going to be a huge part of my life! How long until I can swim in the lake and sit in my hot tub at the lake?

Answer: Hot tub/ swimming after breast augmentation Thank you for your question.As long as your incisions are healed you should be fine to go in your hot tub. Generally, about three weeks after surgery. Check with your surgeon for specific guidelines. Best of luck.

Answer: Hot tub after breast augmentation Each plastic surgeon may have a different answer. Our office typically will make sure that epithelization is going well before allowing our patients to submerge. Of special note is hot tubs. Even the cleanest hot tub may have a bacteria called pseudomonas. We therefore wait a little while longer for the healing incision to be further along in the healing process. Please contact your plastic surgeon for his/her protocol.
