Surgery: While some complications are possible, most patients
heal quickly and are happy and satisfied with their results. For
the first few days after the surgery you will wear a special surgical

to wear one of the bras for several weeks at all times. Most women
take one to two weeks off from work and normal activity; strenuous
activity is not recommended for six weeks after the operation.
