Top tip? Wear plasters over your scars, and choose thick, opaque material to cover your boobs with. Use a good SPF sun cream, and pay attention to your scars when layering up. If you want to use sunbeds soon after recovery, you should aim to protect the entire breast. Your surgeon will be able to offer you further guidance, but as a rule, don’t go topless.

This means the skin under your breasts (or wherever your incisions are) may darken or change colour. If your surgical scars are exposed, there is risk of hyperpigmentation. You need to be very cautious when using sunbeds after breast surgery. We’re not saying you should miss out on all the sun, but make sure your boobs are covered and lathered up with some good old SPF, paying attention to your scars. If you are going somewhere hot and sunny (firstly, lucky you!) then your breasts should be protected from those UV rays as much as possible. When it comes to flying after breast surgery, usually it’s best to wait 2 weeks post-op to fly short-haul, and 6 weeks to fly long-haul. Your boobs WILL NOT explode if you board an airplane. It’s always best to ask your surgeon for advice before you go away if you’re not sure. In this case, you’re also not going to want to get your wounds wet doing `the butterfly`. If you are 6-8 weeks post-op, you’ll still need to go easy on the exercise and you might still require the support of your post-surgical compression bra. We know what you’re thinking- A) I’ve got new boobies B) I’ve got a new bikini 3) Let’s get in the pool. If you are going abroad during recovery or soon after, there are a few key elements you should consider. Chances are, your partner will be more nervous about it than you are! Allow only gentle movement of the breasts within the first few weeks.
Stick to what you are comfortable with and don’t try any moves that will impact your upper body until you’ve hit the 6-week mark. Take it easy though- sex is exercise after all. There is no set timescale as to when you can have sex after a boob job. When else would you get away with wearing a comfy bra during sex? And remember, there’s nothing wrong with keeping your compression bra on. Although there’s no harm in light fondling, be mindful that your breasts will be sensitive to touch for up to 3 weeks after surgery. Key points to remember? Keep your boobs supported (at every angle!), be wary of vigorous movement and try to keep a little distance between your chest and your partner’s body weight. There is no right or wrong answer when it comes to having sex after breast surgery. You've started on your road to recovery, but does that mean your active lifestyle can resume right now? We find out for you, and leave you with these top breast implant recovery tips. Your 6-week binge of Netflix and Halo Top is finally drawing to an end, and now you’re ready to enjoy life with your new boobs.
