Boob Jobs: The Facts - page 2

Dr Marando said: "It depends on the lifestyle and depends on how fit the patient is and also depends on which kind of profession they have, so if the patient is 25 she has two children and has a good pain threshold she could be back to normal life between 10 to 12 days. If the patient is 20 and she has no pain threshold and no children it might take a few more days."

Those who have had children and therefore have a much higher tolerance to pain are more likely to recover sooner. Dr Marando believes this is why older women aged 50 to 60 have a quicker healing time than young women in their twenties. He said: "The figures have increased between the 40´s and 50´s now, which is if you like the second youth of women and with their pain threshold they tend to recover very quickly sometimes they go back to work within one week."

Even after this period of recovery it is vital to check your breasts frequently as the main risk after surgery is an infection. Dr Marando says the risk of having an infection leading to a problem is a one in 400 chance but it is still important to regularly check for swelling, redness, tenderness and discharge.

Before your breast augmentation surgery, be sure to discuss the signs of an infection and how to prevent one with your surgeon. Dr Marando said that patients should be provided with medication to prevent infection: "Every patient has a dosage of antibiotics to use. Usually, in the hands however of a sensible patient and a skilled surgeon the risk can be reduced."

Even though the operation is over, things can still go wrong. Always keep contact details of your surgeon in case any problems arise (concerning the breasts not in general!) Good surgeons will always encourage visits where they can check on your progress. Dr Marando offers all his patients future check ups which can be made yearly or as many times as they like.

Dr Marando said: "Then you can assess the patient´s progress, the patient can also be sent for ultrasounds, anagrams or magnetic revna which means if the patient is healthy they can keep the implants."

It sounds like a lengthy procedure but for the perfect pair the time must be spared.
