- 01The tape attached below the incision site after breast implant surgery will be removed at our clinic during your visit one week later. The clear tape inside the gauze will naturally fall off while showering.
- 02The painless injection is administered automatically, so no separate operation is required, and it is removed after checking the progress.
- 03Regarding underwear, it is recommended to wear shapewear and sleep on your back for one month after surgery. From then until three months, you can wear a sports bra and sleep on your side. Wired bras can be worn starting three months after surgery.
- 04Scarring or pigmentation may occur depending on individual constitution. Please apply scar ointment to the incision site starting from the 10th day after surgery.
- 05After surgery, regular breast ultrasound examinations once a year are recommended, and please undergo an MRI examination if necessary.
- 06Please contact the hospital immediately if you experience a high fever of 38 degrees or higher after surgery, sudden swelling or severe pain in one side of the chest, persistent bleeding, severe redness or a sensation of heat, or sudden changes in shape.
- 07Please keep the tape applied to the incision site below the chest in place for one week. It will be removed during your follow-up visit one week later.
- 08The transparent tape inside the gauze tape will naturally fall off after a week while you shower.
- 09Please keep the painkiller injection. It can be removed on the day of treatment. The injection is administered automatically without the need to press a separate button.
- 10In patients with heavy bleeding, a drainage bag must be worn if necessary. It can be removed after a visit 2 days after surgery for confirmation by the attending physician.
- 11You must take the prescribed capsular contracture preventive medication for 3 months (twice a day). Please start taking it on the 8th day after surgery.
- 12You may take a light shower starting from the 2nd day after surgery. However, please apply waterproof tape over the incision site. (Tegaderm – prescription included) You may shower without waterproof tape starting from the 7th day after surgery.
- 13For one month after surgery, please refrain from activities that put strain on the surgical site, such as raising your arms or lifting heavy objects. (Golf, weightlifting)
Exercise: Please refrain from strenuous exercise that causes excessive sweating for 3 months after surgery (sauna, hot compress, sexual activity, breast massage, etc.). However, light walks and shopping help improve blood circulation and aid in reducing swelling.
No Smoking & No Drinking: Please refrain from drinking and smoking for one month after surgery due to the possibility of inflammation. - 14Please apply scar ointment to the incision site starting 10 days after surgery. Depending on individual constitution, scarring and hyperpigmentation may occur.
Precautions After Breast Fat Grafting
- 01Swelling becomes more severe 3 to 5 days after surgery than on the day of surgery. Major swelling subsides within 2 to 3 weeks.
- 02Please avoid applying cold compresses after surgery, as it lowers the survival rate of the transplanted fat.
It is recommended to wrap the hot pack in a handkerchief or towel to prevent it from touching the skin directly. Please be careful of frostbite or burns due to reduced sensation. - 03Please refrain from drinking and smoking for one month, as this increases the risk of inflammation at the surgical site.
- 04Aerobics, swimming, weight training, and saunas are permitted after one month. However, walking helps with surgical recovery.
- 05You may take a light shower starting from the same day. Please be careful to avoid getting water on the fat harvesting site and the stitches. If necessary, please change the healing tape about every two days until the stitches are removed.
- 06Please refrain from chest compression for one month (including sexual intercourse). Wear nipple patches for one week after surgery, and while the type of bra worn after stitches are removed does not matter, please wear a non-compressive product.
