Will the bandage make it harder to breath?

It is unlikely that the bandage would restrict your breathing. However, the pressure from the implants themselves causes significant tightness. You will be able to breath just fine, but I would make sure your anxiety is optimally controlled before surgery.

Thank you for your question! After surgery you may feel like the garment is very very tight!  Every doctor wraps their patients a certain way.  The garment should be tight but not to the point were it is hard to breathe!   I would contact your plastic surgeon and let him take a look at you.  Best of luck!Dhaval M PatelDouble Board CertifiedPlastic SurgeonChicagoHoffman EstatesOakbrookOrland Park

Thank you for your question.The bandage should not be so tight that it restricts your breathing. If you wake up from surgery and feel that it is doing, you can always readjust the dressing. I would also discuss this with your surgeon, they may not even put a wrap on after surgery. Good luck with your surgery.
