It is absolutely fine to experience amusement park rides with breast implants. I tell my patients that at 6 weeks, they can do pretty much anything that they want without any risk to their results, which would certainly include riding the rides at Disney. Have fun.
In my practice I permit full athletic activity four weeks after breast augmentation. Nevertheless, you should follow the instructions of your own surgeon.
After 4 to 6 weeks your breasts should be well-healed and there should be no restriction to any physical activity. George Pope, MD Orlando
It may be best to wait at least 4 weeks before you subject your breasts to the pressure of an amusement park ride.
I typically recommend that my patients refrain from any vigorous or strenuous physical activity for a month following breast augmentation to allow the capsules and tissues to heal and form properly. I would include certain theme park rides in this category as they can cause you to use your upper body muscles forcefully or require certain restraints or bars that may push on your tissues forcefully. Whenever there is any doubt about this kind of question, it is always best to err on the side of being conservative and giving a little more time for healing to avoid complications. You invest alot in your surgery, and you don't want to have to revisit things simply because of an imprudent choice. Check with your own surgeon for his or her recommendations about this too. Good luck.

Sooner after surgery, there is some risk of pocket displacement, so discuss your plans with your surgeon. Dr. B
IF you have already at least 4 weeks after your breast augmentation there is no risk , you can visit your park of course being carefull of direct traumas to breast because this can predispone to capsular contracture in the future
A breast lift is possible. But all breast lifts require some degree of scarring. If you don't want scars at all, you may want to reconsider surgery. Please consult with a plastic surgeon.
This should not be an issue this far (5 months) out from surgery Thanks for your question, all the best.
This is a common issue many patients have when trying to decide which size implants to choose. This is a choice only you can ultimately make, but hopefully I can give you some helpful advice that may make your decision a lot easier. As far as 230cc versus 260cc goes, we are only talking about a...
