In the Chicago, Illinois area, breast implant surgery from Dr. Rios is performed using a rapid recovery technique.
- The patient is immobilized, which reduces trauma during the operation.
- The pocket for the breast implant is formed under direct vision, which reduces injury to the ribs.
- Instead of narcotics, patients manage discomfort with Tylenol or Motrin. This allows for a quicker return to mobility and speeds the healing process.
- Raising your arms over your head and simple post-op exercises reduce stiffness and promote faster healing.
- No pumps, drains, massage, special support bras, binding or wrapping are required.
Using these steps, most patients find they can go out to dinner the night of the surgery. They also are usually able to return to their daily routine (minus any strenuous exercise) in 1 or 2 days.
