24 Hour Recovery

Does a virtually pain-free breast augmentation sound too good to be true?

Many of Dr. Teitelbaum’s patients think it is - until they understand what he does differently and speak to actual patients who are pain-free just a day or two after surgery.

Recent developments really have allowed breast augmentation patients to return to normal activities within 24 hours, without the need for narcotics, pain pumps, special bandages, or bras. 

Dr. Teitelbaum’s patients routinely go out to dinner the night of surgery, go to Lakers games, or just enjoy the evening with their family.  Most drive within several days, and need no more than a few days off of work.

Bruising is minimal or non-existent, and pain is controlled with just regular Advil and Motrin.

When some surgeons hear this, they don’t believe it!  That’s one reason why Dr. Teitelbaum teaches a course at the largest plastic surgery meeting in the world in which he describes how to do this.

How is it done?  Meticulous preop planning assures not just that you will get the result that you want, but that time won’t be wasted during surgery making decisions that could better have been made with the doctor and you beforehand. 

Very careful surgical techniques coordinated with excellent anesthesia and a detailed understanding of fine points of anatomy, allow the operation to proceed smoothly and with a minimum of trauma.  With our current anesthesia technique, it has been years since a breast augmentation patient had significant nausea.

Because of rough or imprecise technique, some surgeons tightly bandage patients or make them wear a special bra.  But Dr. Teitelbaum’s precise and gentle surgical technique allows his patients to move their arms in the recovery room right after surgery!  That way, your arms never get stiff and frozen.  We hear stories that some doctors tell patients to keep their elbows at their sides “as if you had a broken arm” for a week after surgery.  In contrast, we encourage our patients to shampoo and blow dry their own hair the night of surgery.

The result is less pain, a shortened recovery, and a lower chance of hardening of your breasts.
