How long is it recommended to wait until using the sauna again following breast augmentation surgery? I do the infrared sauna.
Answer: Sauna Thank you for the inquiry! Typically, once your incision has closed, you can submerge in water. Discuss any restrictions with MD at your next follow-up.

Answer: Sauna post breast aug If healing well with no complications, you may resume this around 4 weeks post op - as always, consult with your surgeon as they may have a different recommendation.

Answer: Sauna After Breast Augmentation Thank you for your question. It is recommended to wait at least 6-8 weeks before using a sauna after breast augmentation. Saunas, especially infrared, increase your body temperature and encourage sweating, which can interfere with the healing process and increase the swelling, inflammation, or the risk of infection. Also, heat can impair the settling of the implants. Check with your surgeon to confirm that your incisions are fully healed and that there are no concerns about using heat before returning to the sauna. When you’re cleared to return, start with shorter sauna sessions and monitor how your body responds.
