How Long is Breast Implants Recovery Time?

How Long is Breast Implants Recovery Time?


I am a phys ed teacher and would like to get breast implants. I want a very natural look and do not want anyone to know. I am afraid that if I take additional vacation time either before or after winter or spring break, everyone will notice. Is it possible to be back to work after only a week of recovery?


It is possible.
I would say that returning to work at 1 week is definitely possible as long as you are not using your upper body at work. As for keeping it a secret, that is definitely possible depending on the implant size as well as the clothes you wear.
