If I get breast implants is it safe to use essential oils? Will they eat through the implant? Citrus oils can eat thru plastic.

Many of my patients use essential oils after surgery. It's best to avoid the skin around the surgery site for a few days since some patients get a little hypersensitivity of their skin from the surgical prep or their garment. Since the oil will not come into contact with the implant, there is no risk to the implant shell. 

It is safe to use essential oils on your skin after your surgery, but you should consult with your plastic surgeon as to when it is okay to start using the oils. I would recommend avoiding applying the oils directly on your incisions for the first couple of weeks to reduce the chance of any irritation to the incisions. Since the oils do not come into direct contact with the implants, they will not affect the implant in any way. To learn more about breast augmentation, you can read “A Comprehensive Guide to Breast Augmentation.”

Absolutely.  It's okay to go back to using any oils/moisturizers that you were using before surgery.  Make sure you talk to your physician about what is safe to massage on the incision itself to minimize scarring.  But again, essential oils are safe to use everywhere else.
