After saline breast implants, can I water ski?

Yes. I have patients who scuba dive, kick box and body build and it's safe for them to get back to their sports about six weeks after surgery. The same is true of water skiing. Breast implants are designed to be sturdy, and each manufacturer has its own testing protocol. Allergan tests its implants by exerting nearly 55 pounds of force
on them repeatedly, up to 6.5 million times. If you were to smack into the water while you were skiing, it would be unlikely that you'd exert that much force on them. 

After breast augmentation has healed, you can participate in any activities that you would have before the surgery.

Yes, once you have healed completely you can water ski after saline breast implants. I have many patients who are incredibly active and are always concerned that they will lose their ability to do the activities they love, or have to modify them, and are always so happy when I tell them they will be able to continue their activities after they have recovered completely. Just make sure you discuss your water skiing with your board certified plastic surgeon and get proper clearance before you resume.

Yes. Most patients can return to light activity (walking and gentle lower body workouts)  the first week or so after surgery. Upper body workouts can usually be resumed 3-4 weeks after surgery however it may take an additional 1-2 months to work up to the same level of activity that you were at before surgery.

Do not ski soon after surgery.  Limit your activity the first 2 weeks then gradually increase your activity.  You should be able to resume strenuous exercise at 6-8 weeks.  Best wishes.

I tell my patients that if they are healing well, then they can start light aerobics within 3-4 weeks, and heavy exertion in about 6-8 weeks. This would include water skiing. But everyone is different. Best to discuss with your surgeon.

Once you have healed form surgery, you should be able to water ski (assuming you could water ski before surgery, LOL) or do just about any activity you like. Do ask your surgeon when you are completely cleared for this activity.

You can do anything you wish to do, even sky diving after breast implants, both saline and silicone gel for that matter.

Always best to ask your plastic surgeon about what his restrictions are but in general women with implants, saline or silicone, can participate in nearly every activity including water skiing after they are adequately healed.  Good luck to you and search out a board certified plastic surgeon.
