The size and location of the incision for your breast augmentation depends on the type of implant you and your surgeon have determined will best produce the desired result.
However, the size of the incision depends more on the type of implant than on where the implant will be placed.
Expect to minimize physical activity for three to seven days. Both the length of needed downtime and achieving a full recovery will be based upon the following:
The time away from work and any aerobic exercise for submuscular placement or an inframammary incision is usually a week. Subglandular placement generally requires only two to three days away from work.

Your procedure will be a customized surgery with a treatment plan to address all the issues you want to resolve. It will involve creating a surgical pocket into which the breast implant, either saline or silicone, will be placed in the shape and size that best suits your body.
A breast augmentation surgery typically requires between one to two hours to complete.
A typical recovery time is about one to two weeks. The extent of your procedure and the type of incisions varies from patient to patient, and some patients feel ready to get back to work within only a week or so.
Modern surgical techniques allow for fat transfer breast augmentation which is essentially scarless. For saline breast implants, which are filled after placement, the incision can be placed in the fold of the armpit.
We help our patients visualize what different sizes and shapes will look like with an imaging system, which is extremely helpful in choosing the most appealing size, shape, and projection for implants.
Silicone implants have a very natural feel and weight, while saline implants require a smaller incision, as these are filled after being placed in the surgical pocket. Each has pros and cons, but saline implants are generally more successful for women with a little more natural breast tissue.
You must wait about six weeks before engaging in any vigorous physical activity. No stress must be put upon the incisions while healing. You will be given the okay to return to your usual exercise routine by your plastic surgeon when it is appropriate for you.
Most patients take at least a week to ten days if they have a job that doesn’t entail reaching, lifting, or other types of motions. You will need more days away from work for that type of employment.
