How does

Breast Augmentation work?

Breast augmentation mammoplasty is generally a day procedure and involves the insertion of a breast implant through an incision made along the inframammary fold.

Dr Rhichardson is experienced in the methods of breast implant insertion and can recommend a procedure method that is most suitable for you in view of your desired outcomes.

The different

Types of Implant Position

  • Under the muscle positioning (submuscular)
  • Over the muscle positioning (subglandular)
  • Dual plane positioning

There are various pros and cons to each implant position because the most suitable choice for each patient is dependent on anatomical and lifestyle considerations.

Understanding

The recovery

Breast augmentation mammoplasty recovery is an important part of the journey and one that many patients focus on when considering surgery. Here at Brisbane Plastic & Cosmetic Surgery, we aim to provide support and guidance throughout your recovery.

How long is breast augmentation mammoplasty recovery?

Full recovery from breast augmentation mammoplasty is six weeks. Full recovery refers to returning to all normal activities including weightlifting, running, and other physical activity.

How long should I take off work after breast augmentation mammoplasty?

Dr Richardson recommends that patients undergoing breast augmentation mammoplasty in Brisbane take at least one week off work for office jobs and two weeks off work for jobs that require more movement and physical activity.

How long after breast augmentation mammoplasty can I start driving again?

Dr Richardson recommends that patients refrain from driving for one week after their breast augmentation mammoplasty surgery. The primary reason is due to the likelihood of the patient still being on painkillers during this week.

How long until I can get back to the gym after breast augmentation mammoplasty surgery?

Dr. Richardson recommends that patients who are having breast augmentation mammoplasty surgery proceed with caution when returning to the gym. The main consideration for patients wanting to get back to the gym is you should not engage in any physical activity that significantly elevates your heart rate for the first six weeks after surgery.
