Breast Augmentation surgery has become one of the most popular procedures in North America. It benefits women by increasing their breast size and ultimately, improving the figure for an increase in self-esteem and restoring looks post-pregnancy, weight loss and from natural aging. Even though breast augmentation in Reno is safe, there are still precautions and procedures in place, to ensure the most successful outcome after surgery. Some of the recommendations are provided to prepare for surgery, such as cutting back or quitting smoking, while others are recommended after the procedure. These recommendations are in place after years of research on safety, to guarantee the best health possible for breast augmentation Reno based patients, and should be followed as advised.
Pre-Surgery Recommendations

No Smoking
Smoking cigarettes increases the likelihood of infection during recovery. It is well advised that patients should decrease the amount that they are smoking, or quit entirely two weeks to a month prior to surgery. Avoiding complications will put a patient's mind at ease, if she has been worried about the recovery process. Without any unnecessary obstacles due to an infection or delayed healing time, the breast augmentation procedure will heal quickly, and the patient can return to her normal activities.
Get in Shape
Cosmetic surgery patients are urged to get into shape before their procedure. By having a stronger body, recovery time decreases, as well as the risk for infection. Patients who are overweight should attempt to lose a few pounds before surgery, to aid their recovery.
Post-Surgery Recommendations
No Physical Activity
Heavy lifting and exercise should be avoided or kept to a bare minimum for at least two weeks after surgery. Lifting creates pressure and this could cause incisions to re-open. Exercise involves a lot of movement and this will also re-open stitches and cause swelling to return. Before a breast augmentation surgery patients should arrange to have a friend or family member visit, to offer assistance to the patient, so that she can avoid lifting. This can include taking care of young children and helping with chores.
Wear Compression Garments
The doctor at the clinic will prescribe or provide compression garments that must be worn as advised to reduce swelling. These large bandages may have to be worn 24 hours a day to start, and will gradually decrease in duration until they are no longer necessary. Although the compression garments may be inconvenient and uncomfortable, they are a part of the healing process. Not wearing them will delay the patient returning to work, school and her regular routines.
Breast augmentation procedures are now performed with state-of-the-art technology in clinic's with highly trained medical professionals. As long as the pre and post recovery guidelines are followed, the patient will have a successful surgery, and the results will change her life.
