Breast augmentation plastic surgery Shanghai Meilai Hospital: How long does breast augmentation surgery take to recover?

Breast augmentation surgery is a common plastic surgery. In Shanghai Meilai Hospital, this surgery is carried out by a professional team with rich experience. The recovery time of breast augmentation surgery varies from person to person, depending on the surgical method and the patient's personal situation. The recovery time and precautions of breast augmentation surgery are described in detail from several aspects.

Postoperative pain and swelling

After breast augmentation surgery, patients may feel some pain and discomfort, which is normal. The degree of pain and discomfort varies depending on the type of operation. Usually, in the first few days after surgery, the patient will feel pain and swelling. The doctor will prescribe some painkillers to relieve these discomfort according to the patient's condition. About a week, the pain and swelling will gradually reduce, and the patient will feel more comfortable.

In addition, postoperative nursing also played an important role in relieving pain and swelling. Patients need to follow the doctor's instructions, wear appropriate bras, and avoid strenuous exercise and pressure to reduce pain and swelling discomfort.

Activity restrictions during recovery

During the recovery period after breast augmentation surgery, patients need to pay attention to some movement restrictions. In the first few days after surgery, patients need to rest and avoid strenuous activities and exercises. In addition, it is also necessary to avoid lifting heavy objects, bending, twisting and other movements, so as not to affect the wound healing. Generally, patients need to avoid high-intensity physical activity within 1 to 2 weeks after surgery.

As the recovery progresses, the patient can gradually increase the intensity of daily activities. However, within one month after the operation, it is still necessary to avoid high-intensity exercise to avoid unnecessary pressure on the breast. The doctor will gradually adjust the activity limit according to the recovery of the patient.

Precautions for scar treatment and recovery

After breast augmentation surgery, the wound of the patient will leave some scars. In order to reduce the appearance of scars, doctors will give suggestions on scar treatment after surgery. Some scar care products or scar repair treatments are usually used.

In addition, during recovery, patients need to take care of their wounds carefully to keep them dry and clean. Avoid using hot water for bathing, and do not rub the wound with force. Follow the doctor's instructions and use appropriate care products to maintain wound healing.

Time of full recovery

The complete recovery time of breast augmentation surgery varies from person to person. Generally, patients will feel obvious recovery within 2 to 3 months after the operation. The shape and feeling of the breast will gradually return to normal, and the scar will gradually fade. The time of complete recovery is also affected by the patient's own condition and body care.

To sum up, the recovery time of breast augmentation surgery varies from person to person, and patients need to carry out reasonable nursing and activity control according to the guidance of doctors. The professional team of Shanghai Meilai Hospital will provide recovery guidance according to the specific situation of the patient, and help the patient to achieve the ideal breast augmentation effect as soon as possible through careful nursing and scar treatment.
