Since it requires shampooing clients, lifting your arms, etc., would you need 2 weeks off work? more?
Answer: Return to work after breasts augmentation surgery Dear Catherine, Different surgeons have different policy in regard to return to work and you should consult with your surgeon and follow his or her's recommendation. Quite a few of my breasts augmentation patients are hair stylists. For that type of work, I allow my patients to return to work, once they stop taking the narcotic pain medications - usually after 2-3 days. However, they have to be careful and avoid any weight lifting or strenuous activity, which most of them are able to do. Implants displacement massage that starts on the 3rd day after surgery, helps significantly with the ease of motion of the arms. After 2 weeks, my patients can do light exercise and light lifting, One month after surgery, all restriction are removed. Always, consult with experienced board certified plastic surgeons who operate in accredited surgery center for your safety. Check the before and after pictures in the photo gallery , to make sure that they are numerous, consistent and attractive. Best of luck, Dr Widder

Answer: Time off for hairstylist after BBA Hello, most of my breast augmentation patients who are hairstylists return to work within 6-7 days of surgery since this work usually does not involve heavy lifting. If you do have any activities at work that require some heavier lifting I would recommend modified duties for at least 4 weeks.

Answer: Hairstylist, Breast augmentation and time off I would consider taking a week off and taking things easy. I would then recommend easing back into your job routine with the least strenuous routines first. I would avoid anything that requires hey lifting or a lot of strenuous activity for a good four to six weeks.
