Breast Augmentation: How Long Does It Heal?

Let's say you're going to plan on going to the beach and, you know, showing off your new breasts. You want to have typically about four to six weeks of healing time, because when you first put them in, they look a little unnatural because the tissue is kind of tight around it and takes a while for that to relax. It's not like you can't go out in public. You certainly can, but you might want to wear a covered shirt. But to get in the bikini, really, it's about one to two months before they're completely kind of settled in. For most women, we're typically doing incision right underneath the breast right now, so it's pretty much invisible with the top on. Even when you're undressed, it's hard to see. After a little bit of time, they're mostly going on top the muscle, mostly using form stable silicone implants. And implants come in all different shapes and sizes, so your doctor can talk to you about what is going to be best for you.
