I was wondering if vacuum, pick up kids, elliptical, short walks outside ok?
Answer: 2 weeks is too soon for strenuous activity. Your plastic surgeon will be able to advise on your personal circumstances, but at just 2 weeks after a breast augmentation, strenuous activity and lifting anything weighing more than a few pounds is generally not advisable. While some light activity may be okay, depending on how your breasts are healing, I would not recommend lifting children or exerting much energy on chores. The immediate recovery period following breast augmentation is normally between 6 and 8 weeks. If you want to return to your everyday routine before that, consult your plastic surgeon first to avoid injury or prolonged recovery.

Answer: It's 2 weeks after my breast augmentation. What kind of housework can I do? Thank you for your question. I would recommend that you discuss this question with your surgeon. Every surgeon has their own specific post op protocol for their patients and your surgeon is the best resource when questions arise. They are most familiar with your medical history, details of your surgery, and how you are healing. In my office patients return to day-to-day activities after 1 to 2 days. As far as returning to cardiovascular exercise, I asked them to wait four weeks. Chest exercises are resumed at six weeks. Congratulations on your recent surgery.

Answer: Breast Augmentation/Breast Implants/Anatomic Gummy Bear Implants/ Silicone Implants/Breast Implant Revision I appreciate your question. I would recommend that you discuss this question with your surgeon as every surgeon has their own respective post op protocol for his/her patients. Your surgeon is your best resource as he/she is most familiar with your medical history and how you are healing at this time. For my patients, I recommend no strenuous activity or heavy lifting for 6-8 weeks following surgery. The best way to assess and give true advice would be an in-person exam. Please see a board-certified plastic surgeon that specializes in aesthetic and restorative plastic surgery. Best of luck! Dr. Schwartz Board Certified Plastic Surgeon #RealSelf100Surgeon
