You will be given specific instructions that include:
-How to take care of your breasts after surgery
-Medicines to help heal and reduce the chance of infection
-When and if the stitches are removed
-When can you get back to normal, that is, to normal activities and exercise
-When exactly will be your next appointments?
-What results should I expect after breast augmentation surgery?
-The results of your breast augmentation surgery are immediately visible.
However, over time, the postoperative swelling will subside and the incision lines will weaken.
Satisfaction with your new image should continue to increase as you recover from surgery.
The final results of your breast augmentation will appear in the coming months, as the shape and position of your breast still remains to be shaped. The results of your breast augmentation surgery will be long lasting.
You will definitely be able to keep your new look for a longer period of time if:
-Maintain your weight
-Maintain a healthy lifestyle
-Follow your doctor's instructions for the success of your surgery.
