Answer: Sleeping on your side post Breast Augmentation During the first 6 weeks we recommend our patients should sleep on their back (or at least on your sides) to maintain the implants in the correct position and help prevent implant malposition. Lying or pressing firmly on the implants, could displace or move the implants in the early healing period. Patients can position pillows on either side of their body to prevent them rolling over in their sleep

Answer: Sleeping On Your Side After Breast Augmentation Your best source of information on this can be your own surgeon. However, in general, patients may be recommended not to sleep on their sides until around 6 weeks after their breast augmentation surgery.Hope this helps,Ali Rıza Öreroğlu, MD FEBOPRASEuropean and Turkish Board Certified Aesthetic, Plastic and Reconstructive SurgeonIstanbul, Turkey

Answer: IDEAL SLEEPING POSITION AFTER BREAST AUGMENTATION Sleeping on your back is recommended for the first few weeks of surgery to minimise any potential wound healing problems or implant displacement concerns. This is my general recommendation but for the very reasons you state, its often not practical.In the beginning, sleeping is generally more comfortable on your back, although propping yourself up on a few pillows or sleeping in a recliner chair for the first few days is what many people find the most comfortable. Assistance getting up and down is often required for these first few days. By the 3rd week a reasonable scar capsule is starting to form around the implant, and by 6 weeks it is very well formed and therefore the implant position is "secured". So ideally you should sleep on your back for the first 6 weeks. Unfortunately this is not practical and I don't want my patients worrying because they woke up and found themselves sleeping on their stomach. Therefore, beyond the first few weeks I don't recommend any particular sleep position. Ultimately you move around in your sleep so no matter what position you go to sleep in, you'll move whilst asleep and your subconscious/sleep state will always adjust itself to a comfortable position.
