If you're considering breast enlargement surgery in San Francisco
...
After your breast enlargement surgery, stitches are used to close the incisions.
They may also be taped for greater support. You may also find a gauze bandage
applied over your breasts to help with healing.
It’s common to feel sore and a bit tired the day
after breast surgery, though the worst of the discomfort
fades in 24 to 48 hours. Dr. Mosser’s goal is that
your discomfort is readily managed throughout your recovery.
Within days after your breast augmentation
surgery the
gauze dressing, if any, will be removed and you may be
given a surgical bra for support. A burning sensation may
persist in your nipples for a few weeks following surgery,
though this will fade with the bruising. Between one week
and ten days, your stitches will come out, though swelling
will linger in your breasts for three to five weeks.
You should be able to return to work within a few days
of breast augmentation surgery so long as your job doesn’t
require vigorous physical activity and movement. Your breasts
will probably be sensitive for two to three weeks following
surgery, though soreness should dissipate soon thereafter.
Results—the Amazing New You
You will immediately notice a dramatic change in your breast
size and the balance of your body. You can resume
regular activity. Implants should not interfere in nursing,
sports, or other activities. Your scars will be firm
and pink for six weeks or longer. Routine mammograms
should be continued if you are in the appropriate age
category, though the technician will use a special technique
to insure an accurate reading and protection of your breast
implants.
