Many women considering breast implant in South Africa are often worried about the post-op recovery and sometimes fear that the healing process may linger on a bit too long, which will consume months of their time.
The surgical technique used during the operation, the type of breast implant, the size of the implant and the placement of the implant, will all affect the recovery process as a whole.
Days and Weeks Post-op: The days following breast implants surgery are when the patient will feel moderate pain and discomfort, which can be combatted with prescribed pain medication from your surgeon.
It is common for there to be swelling and bruising in the breast and chest area, and a surgical bra and compression bandages are provided to be worn to help reduce the overall discomfort, as well as to protect the surgical wounds.
It is not very common but is possible for some patients to experience nausea from the anaesthesia used during the procedure.The first-week post-op is when most patients can perform less strenuous activities and exercise and may return to work, obviously depending on how physically demanding their work is.
Patients must avoid strenuous movements such as bending and lifting.
