Does Breast Implant Shape Matter?

Does breast implant shape make a difference in the final appearance of your breast augmentation procedure? Yes, but perhaps not as much as the skill of the plastic surgeon you choose to work with. According to a recent study published in Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery®, the official online journal of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS), breast implant shape may not play as large a role in final results as once thought.

When can I work out after breast augmentation surgery?

 

At about two weeks post op, you will begin to feel like your old self. Stationary bike and certainly light walking (which can be resumed earlier) are permitted. No bouncing for at the bare minimum for at least six weeks. We will tell you no lifting anything over 10 pounds for at least 4-6 weeks and no chest exercises (push ups, chest flys, etc.) for at least three months.

How long is the recovery from breast augmentation?

 

Most of our patients can return to work after breast augmentation surgery at about five days post op. Some like to take a whole week off from work and rest and recuperate. Patients usually report being most uncomfortable at day 2-3, with pain subsiding after and getting better from there.

Breast implants today are made extremely safe and very durable. Competing brands offer mostly the same choices in actual materials used, shaped implants and projection. Most breast implants are filled with either saline fluid or have some sort of cohesive gel fill.  Others are highly cohesive and/ or shaped.
