Breast Procedure

Pre Operative Question Answer

How long does the recovery period typically last after tubular breast correction surgery?

The recovery time can vary depending on the extent of the procedure and individual healing abilities. Generally, patients can expect the initial phase of recovery to last about 1-2 weeks, during which you may experience swelling, bruising, and discomfort. It’s crucial to follow your surgeon’s post-operative instructions, which may include wearing a supportive bra, avoiding strenuous activities, and taking prescribed medications for pain management. Over the next few months, you’ll gradually resume normal activities, and the swelling and bruising will subside. Full recovery and final results can typically be seen within 4-6 months, but it’s important to note that everyone heals at their own pace. Your plastic surgeon will provide personalized guidance and support throughout the recovery process, ensuring a safe and optimal outcome.
