Hello, I plan to have a breast augmentation hopefully this year if the consultation and everything goes well. I want to do it in late June or early July, since I will have a summer break. Would 2 months be an adequate amount of time for recovery? My school requires a lot of mobility such as lifting patients, giving IV, etc.

Answer: Recovery Each surgeon has her/his own protocol for lifting after breast augmentation. Typically two months recovery should be adequate for you to resume normal duties associated with your program. Good luck with nursing school!

Answer: Yes, 2 months is enough I recommend an in person consultation with a plastic surgeon to discuss your goals and be measured. After I measure and discuss goals with my patients, we then look at pictures of women (my patients) with similar measurements with different size and style breast implants and they choose what looks right for them. They also get to see what they would look like when the breasts have fully dropped and fluffed and in clothes. You get to see actual results and the surgeon's experience and not a virtual idea of what can be achieved. Women tell me that this process is very helpful in determining what size and style breast implant is right for them. Dr. Ted Eisenberg, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon and Author.
