After the procedure, you should sleep on your back with your upper body slightly elevated. This will improve healing, keep your breasts in a natural position, and reduce swelling and discomfort. You will also receive a surgical bra to hold your breasts in the correct position. Most people can return to work after one to two weeks. Dr. Lawton will tell you when you can return to more physical activities. 

What Results Will I See With Breast Augmentation?

After your breast augmentation, you will immediately see fuller, larger breasts. The final shape will take up to six months to develop as healing continues. Most people prefer a breast size that enhances their figure without looking unnaturally large. 

If you have a significant amount of sagging or loose skin, breast augmentation by itself may not achieve your desired results. A breast lift, often performed with breast augmentation, removes excess skin to raise, tighten, and reshape the breast. It also restores the areola to a more normal, outward-facing position.
