The part many people are curious about, just as much as the results after breast augmentation, is

how long it takes to return to daily life.

The recovery period varies from person to person, but I’ve summarized the average timeline

based on a heartfelt real review.

Before surgery

Can I eat right after surgery?

Right after surgery, as general anesthesia wears off, your throat becomes extremely dry.

However, because gas is introduced during general anesthesia,

if you eat food or drink water right away,

you may feel nauseous and throw up, so it is best to avoid eating immediately,

and start with a small amount of water or soft food after 30 minutes to 1 hour.

Also, right after surgery, you may feel a tight sensation in the chest,

and because a bandage is wrapped around the area, you may feel a little pressure and itching.

In order -> 1 week > 2 weeks > 3 weeks

When can I return to regular work?

For office jobs, you can usually work within a manageable range starting 2 to 3 days after surgery. For service jobs, it is best to return after at least 5 to 7 days,

and for jobs with a lot of activity, returning after the second week is recommended.

However, in the early recovery period, it is best to avoid strenuous exercise or lifting heavy objects,

and in some cases, a recovery period of about 3 to 4 weeks may be needed.

2 to 3 days after surgery

Movements that raise the arms high may be uncomfortable, but this gradually decreases.

Short outings are possible.

If the recovery speed differs, it is because each person’s constitution is different,

and the recovery process can also vary depending on the type of implant, incision site, and muscle placement.

It is most important to carefully follow the precautions explained by the hospital.

In particular, smoking and drinking alcohol can cause inflammation,

so it is safest to wait at least 1 month before doing so.

Even for the same surgery,

it is important to understand in advance that the recovery process can differ from person to person.

At our clinic, through regular follow-up checks after surgery,

we carefully monitor patients’ discomfort,

and provide detailed guidance on precautions for each recovery stage.

The recovery process after breast surgery is

often not something you need to worry about excessively.

If you visit the hospital and have a thorough consultation with a breast surgery specialist,

and set up a systematic and detailed surgical plan,

you can expect more satisfying results.
