FAQs

When can I get back to my exercise routine?

You will be able to start walking slowly one week after the treatment. Then you will be able to start more aerobic activities if you feel comfortable. To do a little more strenuous work, you will wait till 2 weeks. The healing process might become long if implants are placed under the muscle.

How long will it take me to recover from my breast augmentation surgery?

The recovery period varies depending upon the placement of the implant in the breast. If the implant is placed over the muscle, the recovering period will be short. If the implant is placed over the muscle, the recovery period will increase by one or more days.

Should I be concerned about the brand of implant my plastic surgeon uses?

At the moment, there are only a few FDA approved breast implant manufacturer companies. All of these FDA approved breast implant manufacturers are making quality products that are tested for years to perfection. Therefore, the brand does not matter in general.

How do I know if I should have my implants placed over or under the muscle?

It is a very important topic. If you look forward to having saline implants, you have a small amount of natural breast tissue or a strong family history of breast cancer; choose submuscular (under the muscle). If you want silicone implants, have a large amount of natural tissue with saline implants or require a breast lift; go for subglandular (over the muscle) placement.
