After Breast Implant

  • You'll be wearing a bra when you wake up. You should wear this bra for 3 weeks. After 3 weeks, you can wear any bra you want.
  • After the procedure, you can bathe without wetting the breasts and have your hair washed.
  • Drains will be mostly removed in 1-2 days. Then you may have a full-body shower.
  • Breasts will be stiff due to edema. It may take 2-3 months to soften. There may be temporary numbness, again, it is due to edema.
  • There will be tapes under the breasts. You can remove these tapes after 15 days.
  • The stitches will all dissolve spontaneously. You can start using scar removal ointment 2 weeks after the procedure.
  • You should protect the operation area from the sunlight for 6 months. If you are going on holiday or to the solarium during this period, always use 50F sunscreen and cover your stitch areas with tape. The less the stitches are exposed, the less scars will remain. Even sunlight passing through a bikini or swimsuit can darken the scars.
  • We do not recommend driving for 2 weeks after the procedure.
  • We do not recommend smoking for at least 15 days as it negatively affects wound healing. Smoking will cause more scars to be left because it impairs wound healing.
  • One week after the procedure, you can consume herbal teas and vitamin drugs.
  • You can do light sports 1 month after the procedure.
  • Breast implant procedure does not prevent breastfeeding.
  • Sub-muscular prostheses may be a little more painful. This pain can be felt severe like a stab from time to time, within 6 months to 1 year. It is not something to worry about.
  • Do not use any other medication than those recommended after the procedure. If there are any medications you have already been using, consult your doctor.
  • Every woman should have a breast check at least once a year. Do not disrupt your routine controls.
