There’s not much info on subglandular breast augmentation recovery. Curious how soon most patients
recuperation from Subglandular breast augmentation
Jul 11, 2018
The recuperation from subglandular and submuscular is really the same. There may be a little less pain post operatively from subglandular but this is minimal with careful technique. You should be able to raise your arms for example to wash your hair, within a day or two after surgery. Most surgeons would recommend that you do NOT lift weights, engage in any cardio activities (even walking on a treadmill), or doing things which may raise you heart rate or blood…
Is 5 days to soon to go back to work after a BA? I’m a hairstylist
return to work after Breast Augmentation
Jul 11, 2018
Every surgeon has different recommendations regarding return to activities. Generally you can return to daily activities by 5 days. Many surgeons would recommend that you do NOT return to heavy lifting (over 10-15 pounds) or cardio workouts. This includes walking on a treadmill.

Quite often an incision may develop a little red spot which opens up and then becomes a white spot. This is due to some inflammation around suture material (stitches) which are placed beneath the skin surface. This is called suture spitting. By itself it is not…
How does smoking affect facelift surgery? Was told to quit smoking 3 wks. prior to surgery. May I
Smoking during face lift healing
Mar 28, 2017
Thank you for asking a very common question.
First of all I ask my patients to quit smoking at least 3 weeks prior to surgery. This is because quitting smoking is a very stressful period and should not be superimposed on the stress of recent surgery. It is better to focus on one aspect at a time. Also, if you quit a few days before, you will likely have increased sputum production and coughing which is dangerous in the immediate healing period. Coughing causes a…
