Recovery with Rapid Recovery Breast Augmentation®

Dr. D’Souza’s patients see him for their consultation in his new Carlsbad office. Dr. D’Souza operates at a state of the art surgical center in the Carlsbad region. Many patients resume normal activities within 24 hours, and rapid recovery patients can usually return to basic tasks in 24 to 48 hours, as outlined in our guide to what to expect during rapid recovery breast augmentation healing. For many breast augmentation patients, that means a smoother experience with less interruption to daily life. Dr. D’Souza does not believe in drains, surgery wraps or narcotic pain medications, unlike traditional breast augmentation surgery and traditional methods that often involve downtime of one to two weeks and may require narcotic medication. Most patients manage pain with over-the-counter relief or NSAIDs, with less pain during the recovery period, and a surgical bra is often enough support during early healing. In fact, Dr. Dsouza encourages his patients to even go out to coffee or dinner the same night of their surgery. They can often shower and lift their arms within hours after surgery, though heavy lifting should wait early on so they can get back to normal life smoothly. This rapid recovery procedure uses gentle anesthesia and a technique designed to cause less tissue trauma, which helps minimize swelling and bruising. Our Rapid Recovery Breast Augmentation approach gives women the ability to get on with their lives as soon as possible. Swelling and bruising typically peak during the first week, although most patients feel close to normal within the first 24 hours.
