Before and After Breast Enhancement

Once you have made the decision to have your breasts enhanced there are some things that you should be prepared for, this includes pre-op consultation and preparation and post-op recovery expectations.

Before you go under the knife you should be sure to talk to your plastic surgery consultant. They have seen thousands of women who have been through the same experiences as you and they'll know what to be aware of.

One of their recommendations usually includes booking time off of work and postponing any vacations or big celebrations. There is no absolute timeline for recovery. Because every woman is different and every surgery is different, recovery time can vary greatly.

Another step to faster recovery is to be healthy before you undergo the procedure. This means that you should have a good diet, relatively free of toxins and high in fiber and vitamins. This added health will make the recovery faster and lead to less pain and discomfort in the long run.

Once the surgery is completed you should make sure that you have a comfortable chair to sleep in. This may seem odd, but because your breasts could be sore for over a month you are not going to be able to sleep lying down.

A comfortable chair with a recliner is your best bet. If it was heated and had a massage feature this could also go a long way to easing the discomfort that you may be feeling.

Of course there is another aspect of the post-breast enhancement process that rarely ever gets mentioned. This is the emotional change that you will feel. You will look in the mirror and notice that indeed you look different. Providing you have a good doctor and good consultation you'll be happy with the results, but there is also the chance that you may be a little nervous.

Some women find the change in their husband's attitude to be almost a little offensive. Naturally he will be thrilled at the prospect of having a wife with a perfect chest, but you don't want to let things get over board.

Surely he loved you and your body before the surgery and all of that extra attention is not a sign of his objectification of your body, but simply a combination of curiosity and excitement. It is a big deal after all.

There is also the fact that he may simply be over reacting to your new breasts to reassure you that you made the right decision. If you had the procedure and he didn't seem to notice that would make you feel just as bad as if he freaked out over them.
