Postoperative Care

1. After breast augmentation surgery, there will usually be pain and swelling in the breasts. The degree of pain and swelling varies from person to person, depending on the method and nature of the surgery and the individual's physical condition. The pain usually lasts for about two to three days and can be controlled by taking medication on time as instructed by the doctor. The swelling and bruising will subside in about one to two weeks.

2. After resting for two to three days, daily activities can generally be resumed two to three days after the operation. You can return to work as usual five to seven days after the operation. Avoid raising your arms and lifting heavy objects in the first week after surgery, and avoid steam baths and swimming within two weeks. Vigorous exercise should not be performed until two weeks after surgery.

3. There will be a simple dressing on the wound after the operation, and sometimes a bandage will be used to fix the position of the breast. After two to three days, see your doctor for a follow-up check-up and you can bathe normally. Arrange a follow-up visit in one week, one month and six months. The stitches on the wound will dissolve automatically within ten days.

4. In the first month after the operation, you should wear a well-fitting soft bra or a positioning chest belt according to the doctor's instructions, or not wear a bra to allow the breast tissue to take shape naturally. The breasts will initially feel swollen and stiff, but after one to two months, the texture and shape of the breasts will become more natural. When you psychologically integrate it into your body and no longer notice the existence of the prosthesis, you will be completely healed.
