Time to recover
by boobstobe 20th June 2012, 4:32 pm
Hello ladies!
I am planning for my breast lift + implants and would like to know if 3 weeks time off is enough. How did you feel after 3 weeks? Could you drive? Lift your arms? Were you still really swollen?
Thank you very much! I need as much details as I can to plan for my date

You'll be just fine after 3 weeks after an uplift sweetheart 
It took me a little under 2 weeks to feel like my old self and driving and lifting arms was pretty much OK, maybe still a little stiff, but nothing I couldn't cope with.
At 3 weeks post-op I was still swollen though, but I was able to disguise the swelling with a scarf or a pretty pashmina draped across my chest. xx

Hi Boobstobe
I had my BA with implants and a tummy tuck at same time on 13th June. I have booked 2 and half weeks off work. I am currently 10 days post op. I am glad that I have next week off work although I reckon, at a push, if I had just had my boobs done I could have gone back next week. I think that everybody is different. I drove after a week to have my stitches out. Every day I feel a little bit better. I am now starting to really like my boobs although they are still bruised. I did read stories that you couldn't move your arms etc but to be honest it has been a lot better than I expected. I agree with Donna that you will feel very tired after the anaesthetic and should rest up for the first few days. You will be fine! xxx

Good Luck! I am sure you will be pleased. I reckon once you get past day 10 you start to feel better and every day is better than the last. Feeling really good today. x
