Dr. Chen Lu
After breast augmentation surgery, the following points should be noted:
1. Rest and activity: Sufficient rest is necessary after surgery. Avoid strenuous exercise for at least two weeks, but light activities such as short walks can be performed to promote blood circulation and reduce the risk of blood clots.
2. Diet and nutrition: Maintain a balanced diet after surgery and consume adequate protein, vitamins, and minerals to promote wound healing and physical recovery. Avoid spicy, greasy, raw, or cold foods, which may irritate the wound or affect recovery.
3. Wearing appropriate bras: Your doctor may recommend wearing a specially designed supportive bra to help shape the breasts and reduce discomfort.
