Recovery

Hi, I’m in the consultation stage at the minute. I’ve been to see dr Mounir and he has advised I need an uplift with implants, which I’ve finally come round to the idea (was shocked at first ? ). I was just wondering what the recovery period is ?? I was planning on having only a week off work. Thanks x

Hi Becki,
Hope you are well 🙂 I am now 1 week and 1 day post op. I am 32 with previous breast size 34 empty C after breast feeding, I had an uplift with 350/325 implants with Dr Andrea, I am extremely pleased!! My incisions are very neat and healing well 🙂 I would definitely say you need 2 weeks recovery if you are to have a lift and implants. If it was just implants you may get away with a week’s recovery but an uplift is alot more severe. I am still soar and bruised and very immobile, I am still having help to get dressed etc… Any other questions just shout, hope that helps xx

That’s a great help thank you. I’m so excited to get them done but read posts on here where girls have had 5-6 weeks off work. I’ll be able to get away with 2 and can work from home if needed. Were you limited with the size of implant you could have ? I’m at empty b cup at the minute and want to achieve DD maybe E xx

You are welcome 🙂 I have heard a lot of girls on here that have been dissapointed with the size they were advised on, I think it depends on each individual along with their current size and quality of skin. The sizes I could have chose from was either 325/350/375. To be honest I never asked if I could have gone bigger as I thought these were big enough, Dr Andrea just reminded me that the bigger I go the sooner they will drop again and advised on perkier rather than bigger but that’s for each individual to decide so I went with 350 one side and 325 the other as my breast were slightly un even. I’d say once swelling has gone down I will probably be a DD/E cup which is perfect for me, I’m 5ft 6 and weight 10St (could do with losing a little lol but not much) I am very happy indeed and think I’ll be fine to go back to work Monday (after 2 weeks off) I have an office job so still no lifting etc…. Xx
