I am worried about it affecting my ability to climb 20ft, wrap myself in silks and drop safely. I do not want about the muscle because I am petite with very little breast tissue. Is it possible to have natural looking implants and continue to do intense aerial exercise? Google videos like Pencil Drop, Double Star Drop, Suicide Drop, Ankle Drop, to get an idea of what I do (I'm on instagram aerialjacky for a better idea of the aerial stuff. I don't want to not be able to do this after surgery.

Answer: Breast Augmentation Yes, I recommend a smooth, round, silicone "Gummy Bear" implant placed in a submuscular plane. This is still ideal depite your aerial tricks. I recommend an in-office examination as well as a detailed discussion with a surgeon who you are comfortable with and who is a Double-Board Certified Plastic Surgeon certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery. Best wishes! Dr. Desai

Answer: Breast augmentation and return to "intense exercise"... Thank you for the question. Long-term patients who undergo breast augmentation surgery (barring any complications) should be able to return to all activities with full strength. I do recommend the use of the sub muscular (dual plane) position of breast implants for most patients undergoing breast augmentation surgery, including athletes of all kinds. Timing to return to specific types of exercise will vary from one patient to another. Best to check with your plastic surgeon for specific advice. Generally, I suggest patients gradually ease back into the strenuous aerobic exercise 4 to 6 weeks postoperatively, assuming that they are doing well and there have been no complications. Lower body exercise can generally be resumed 2 weeks postoperatively. Use common sense, listen to your body, and gradually resume previous activity. In my practice, I ask patients to avoid contact and strenuous exercise involving the pectoralis major muscles ( such as push-ups, bench press, burpees, dancing on a pole…) for at least 3-6 months.
