At Charles Chalekson, MD, Plastic Surgery in Santa Maria, breast augmentation using autologous fat displacement involves liposuction and fat transfer, which means healing occurs in multiple areas. You may experience swelling, bruising, and discomfort, all of which fade over time. Although discomfort is usually manageable, you must avoid putting pressure on your breasts during the healing period.
We advise resting and refraining from heavy exercise during the initial post-operative period. Gradual movement may promote circulation and healing.
