Associate Professor Damian Marucci COSMETIC PLASTIC RECONSTRUCTIVE SURGEON

When can you return to work after breast augmentation surgery?

Here is a question from the breast.com.au forum:

Im a hairdresser and I’m booked in for a breast augumentation for January. I was just wondering what the recovery time would be for work. My surgeon has said 2 weeks. How would I go shampooing clients etc? Thank you in advance

And my reply was:

Hi,

I think 2 weeks is a pretty safe bet in terms of returning to hairdressing. Different people respond to surgery differently and experience discomfort differently, but I find most patients are back to moving their arms around freely by 2 weeks.

Good luck with your surgery!
