Generally, it can work normally within seven days after treatment, but it takes several months to fully recover.
If you want to know how long you can rest before going to work, it depends on the nature of your job, because you can return to work within a few days or a week after the operation. After breast plastic surgery, rest for two to three days, and generally you can resume your daily activities two to three days after surgery. You can go to work as usual five to seven days after the operation.
In the first week after operation, we should spare no effort to raise our arms and carry heavy objects. You should not take a steam bath or swim for two weeks. But strenuous exercise can only be done two weeks after operation. Work with more upper arm activity may need to rest for 2-3 weeks. You should avoid sex for one week after the operation to avoid hurting your breasts, and you should be extremely careful about your breasts for the next month.
There are some useful suggestions:
1. After the operation, the wound will be simply bandaged, and a bandage will be used to fix the position of the breast. You can go to the doctor's office for a follow-up visit in two or three days, and then you can take a bath normally. Arrange follow-up for another week, month and half a year. The suture of the wound will melt automatically within ten days.
2. In the first month after operation, you should wear either a fitted soft bust or a positioning chest strap according to the doctor's instructions, or let the chest tissue form naturally without wearing a bust. The breast will feel swollen and soft at first, and the texture and appearance of the breast will be more natural after one to two months. When you mentally integrate it into your body and stop paying attention to the existence of the prosthesis, you will fully recover.
3. Don't wear iron wire through the chest circumference within half a year after operation, so as to avoid capsule twinning (capsule fibrosis) caused by chest deformation.
4. If you are preparing for pregnancy, it is best to wait for the breast shape to stabilize six months after the operation. Breast augmentation surgery generally does not affect breastfeeding ability.
5. Start breast massage one week after the operation. The method is to push the breast upward, inward and outward as far as possible, keep this posture for ten seconds, and do the left and right breasts for five minutes respectively. Twice in the morning and evening in the first month. Once every two months and once a year. After one year, I changed to irregular massage. Breast massage can loosen the capsule fiber tissue around the prosthesis and effectively reduce the occurrence of capsule twins, so it is necessary to persevere.
This method should be kept in mind and can help you quickly restore the softness of your chest.
6. Taking vitamin E every day after operation is helpful to prevent the entanglement and hardening of chest capsule tissue. Normal physiological phenomena such as hardening, swelling and redness may appear in the first three months after operation, but most of them will fade to inconspicuous marks in about half a year.
7. A small number of patients may feel paralyzed after operation, but they will return to normal in a few months.
I hope dear ~ you have a good body and a beautiful and bright good mood.
