Day 1

Immediately following your procedure, you will be groggy from the anaesthesia, so you will need someone to take you home and care for you overnight.

Weeks 1 and 2

The first week is usually the most uncomfortable part of the recovery process, so we advise that our Sydney breast augmentation patients plan to rest for up to a week. You can expect to have significant swelling and mild to moderate tenderness in your chest, depending on the placement of the implant (above or below the muscle). Dr Rizk will prescribe appropriate medications and techniques to help with the pain and discomfort.

After one week, most women can return to non-strenuous work or activity. During this time, you may notice your breasts appear “top-heavy” and that your chest muscles feel very tight, but this is normal as your body heals and adjusts to the presence of the breast implants.

Weeks 3 to 6

In the following weeks, you will want to gently return to normal activities. While any remaining discomfort may be managed with over-the-counter medicines, you should still avoid any strenuous activity or heavy lifting. Dr Rizk will schedule follow-up appointments to assess your recovery process and talk through any questions or concerns you may have.

Months 2 to 6

As the body heals there will be noticeable subsiding of swelling and inflammation to your breasts, where you may begin to observe your breasts as they appear to “drop and fluff”. While this may be unsettling, this is a normal, natural part of the healing process. When your internal tissues begin to stretch and adjust to the implants, they will naturally settle into their proper position. They will usually move down (“drop”) and settle, filling out on the lower side (“fluff”). While it may be unsettling, this is a normal, natural part of the healing process.
