Stutman Plastic Surgery, led by the highly skilled Dr. Ross Stutman, offers expert breast augmentation tailored to each patient’s unique needs. With advanced training and a prestigious fellowship, Dr. Stutman combines artistry and precision for natural-looking, confidence-boosting results.
The First 48 Hours
In the initial days following your surgery, rest is crucial. You’ll likely experience some swelling, tenderness, and a feeling of tightness in your chest. Dr. Stutman will provide pain management instructions and may prescribe medications to ease discomfort. A supportive surgical bra will also help reduce swelling and provide necessary support. Avoid heavy lifting or strenuous activities during this time.
The First Week
By the end of the first week, most patients can resume light daily activities, but it’s important to follow Dr. Stutman’s guidance. Bruising and swelling may still be present, but these should gradually improve. You might notice a temporary change in breast sensation, a normal part of the healing process.
Weeks Two to Four
During weeks two to four, swelling will continue to subside, and you may feel more like yourself. Many patients can return to work within this period, especially if their job isn’t physically demanding. Light exercise, such as walking, is often encouraged to promote circulation, but avoid intense workouts or chest exercises until Dr. Stutman gives the go-ahead.
Months Two to Three
By the second month, you’ll notice significant improvements in how your breasts look and feel. Most swelling should be gone, and scars will begin to fade. At this point, you can usually return to all physical activities, including more vigorous exercises.
Six Months and Beyond
By six months, your breasts will settle into their final position, and scars will continue to fade. Regular follow-ups with Dr. Stutman ensure your recovery is progressing well. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle will help you enjoy long-lasting results.
