BREAST AUGMENTATION POST OPERATIVE CARE

Healing time following breast augmentation surgery can vary from patient to patient. At the Cosmetic Surgery Institute we find that the majority of Dr Carman’s patients experience a comfortable recovery thanks to our specialized post-op care following breast augmentation. After your breast augmentation surgery you will be moved to our accredited recovery room where you will recover from your anesthetic. You are likely to feel some pain and discomfort following breast augmentation, but this is generally well controlled by pain medications. Antibiotics are given to help prevent infection. Our nurses are highly specialized in the care of our post operative patients and make every effort to make your surgery a positive experience.

The Cosmetic Surgery Institute in Toronto is the only facility in the Greater Toronto Area that routinely keeps all breast augmentation patients overnight post operatively. A private nurse attends to the needs of each patient making the early recovery period smooth and worry-free.

Patients are advised to take a week off after breast augmentation surgery to allow for adequate healing time and a quicker recovery. Pain medication and antibiotics are prescribed for use at home during the first week. Generally our Toronto breast augmentation patients are able to return to light physical activity after one week, and full activity including exercise after three weeks.
