If you are curious about breast augmentation, the best time to plan your procedure is now. Planning for breast surgery involves many decisions from choosing between silicone breast implants and saline implants, finding the right breast size for you, and deciding when you want to receive surgery. Undergoing surgery in the winter or early spring ensures you have time to heal before summer, allowing your body to recover. Whether you are planning a vacation or attending summer events spring or winter breast augmentation can help you feel more comfortable and confident in your body.

Sufficient Time for Smooth Recovery

Healing after breast augmentation is a process that requires patience, as your breast tissue needs time to adjust to the saline or silicone implants and reduce swelling. While most patients feel able to return to work within a week, full recovery from breast implants takes several weeks to months. By having your breast implant surgery now, you will give yourself plenty of time to rest, follow post-operative care instructions, and return to your normal routine. This allows more time for your breast augmentation results to emerge.

Scars Have Time to Fade

While Dr. DiFrancesco uses advanced techniques to minimize scarring during your breast augmentation procedure, it is important to remember that all surgical incisions need time to heal. Initially, scars may appear pink or slightly raised, but over the course of a few months, they will fade and become much less noticeable. Scheduling your breast augmentation in the winter or early spring allows your scars to heal before summer, giving you the best possible aesthetic results. Protecting your healing incisions from sun exposure during this period also helps prevent them from darkening or becoming more visible.

Results are Protected from Sun Exposure

One of the most overlooked aspects of breast augmentation recovery is protecting your incisions from the sun. Whether you have received a breast augmentation on its own or paired your breast augmentation with a breast lift or body contouring surgery, protecting your scar tissue is important. Direct sun exposure can cause scars to darken and take longer to fade, which is why it’s important to keep them covered and use sunscreen in the early stages of healing. Scheduling your procedure during the cooler months gives your scars time to heal before summer, so by the time you are ready to wear swimsuits and summer tops, they will be much less visible. Proper scar care, including moisturizing and following Dr. DiFrancesco’s recommendations, will further help in achieving smooth, well-healed results.
