Pretty bummed that I wont be able to workout for a while after having my breast augmentation next week. If you had yours done before, how long did it take before you were able to workout again? Thanks!

    you should probably ask your doctor this "/
    well, how long it'll take you to recover, more or less

    I wasn't working out at the time. But that was 9 years ago when I had mine done. I was however working as a bartender, and that in it's self can be a workout sometimes. It took me about 2 weeks to recover completely. Good luck to you. Make sure there is someone to help take care of you the first couple of days.

    Mine was a little different because I had to have reconstructive surgery. I had a girlfriend also who had the augmentation and she was fine in a matter of days. But you will want to give your upper body at least 6 weeks to heal all the way.

    i wasn't working out at the time but my doctor told me six weeks. the last thing you want to do is pop your stitches!!! if you're really worried about exercise you could probably do a leisurely-power walk as an interim thing. it's better than nothing. but i was in a lot of paid for a long time.
