Mammary intercourse after breast augmentation...how long should I wait?

Question

I know this is personal but we'd like to know. I'm 4 weeks out 0 pain. Is it too soon? They look wonderful, already dropped and all. Just want to use them...lol.

Joseph G. Bauer, MD, FACS · Answer

Thank you for your question and congratulations on your surgery. I would advise that you contact your surgeon and seek out his/her advise. Everyone heals a little differently, but typically at 6 weeks my patients can resume all activities.

Jerome Edelstein, MD · Answer

Hello,I typically advise my patients to avoid sex and other cardio activity for 3 weeks post op but your Surgeon may have different protocols. I recommend that you ask them as they know your situation the best.Take care

Jaime S. Schwartz, MD, FACS · Answer

I appreciate your question.

I would recommend that you discuss this question with your surgeon as every surgeon has their own respective post op protocol for his/her patients.  Your surgeon is your best resource as he/she is most familiar with your medical history and how you are healing at this time.

The best way to assess and give true advice would be an in-person exam.

Please see a board-certified plastic surgeon that specializes in aesthetic and restorative plastic surgery.

Best of luck!

I recommend avoiding vigorous activity for six weeks following breast augmentation surgery. Please discuss this with your surgeon and follow their advice.

Steven Wallach, MD · Answer

You need to run this by your doctor. This will depend upon your healing.  Most patients can go back to full activities within about 6-8 weeks.
