Hello, I'm 4 weeks post op for over the muscle BA. I have been fine driving my car since 1 week post op but haven't been on my moped since. Will I be ok to ride it now? Thank you.

Answer: Scooter Riding after Breast Augmentation Dear cloem, Typically we allow post operative breast augmentation patients to return to all activities 4 - 6 weeks after surgery. I would confirm that this matches the instructions given to you by your operating surgeon. There is a chance that even after getting the "ok" from your surgeon, the bouncing caused from operating the scooter could cause you some discomfort. If that occurs, listen to your body and hold off for another week or so. Good luck!

Answer: Activities after Breast Augmentation Typically you can resume this type of activity when you feel that you can handle the moped safely under a crisis situation (such as getting out of the way of a car that is trying to cut you off, or a similar circumstance) without hesitation or pain. You must be off all narcotic pain medication or muscle relaxant type of medication, of course.I find that most women who go under the muscle cannot always handle a physically heavy load this early, so depending on how heavy and bulky or awkward the moped is, and how big you went, you could sprain the muscle and hurt for months.If you fall, all bets are off, so this doesn't seem smart, just yet, to me.To be sure, check with your surgeon to clear you for this activity.
