There for you
in the aftercare

Your breast operation has been carried out successfully by us. On this page we explain to you how things continue over the next hours, days and weeks, so that you are perfectly informed about the whole course of events and can therefore prepare yourself optimally.

What happens directly after the breast operation?

First you come to our recovery room, where we monitor you intensively for about an hour, and after the waking-up phase you move on to the ward, where you come to your room and can recover. During this time our nurses are there for you and provide you with food and medication as required.

The next morning Dr. Dobrovits or Dr. Draxler comes to you and holds the follow-up conversation in your room. Your bra is opened and you can take your first look at your new bust.

Your doctor also gives you a checklist for the coming days as well as painkillers; afterwards you are given a good breakfast, arrange the first aftercare appointment and leave our centre fortified and with the breast you wished for.

In this video Dr. Dobrovits explains the whole course of events after the breast operation:

May I stay overnight at the Kuzbari Centre after the breast augmentation?

Yes of course - most patients stay with us at the Kuzbari Centre for one night after their breast operation. Even if it is not always absolutely necessary, it is quite simply the safe option, and in our exclusive ward the time can be passed pleasantly, which is why more than 90% of our patients make use of this offer.

Alongside the best possible medical care you also benefit from the finest food and drink. Dr. Dobrovits explains in this video in which exceptional cases it also works without an overnight stay.

The right scar care after breast surgery

Through the right operating technique we keep your scar as small as possible and place it where it will not be seen. If you also follow Dr. Draxler's tips from the following video, the scars will never bother you.

Downtime after the breast augmentation

Movement after breast surgery is good and even desirable, within a certain extent of course. Some patients go back to work as early as two days after the procedure and there is nothing to be said against it medically, as long as it is a desk job. In general, however, you should take the first 4 - 6 days rather carefully.

You can find out everything you should observe around the subject of downtime, as well as valuable tips, in this video from Dr. Dobrovits.

The most important periods briefly summarised:

When can I work again?
Desk work often as early as after 1-2 days, usually after 4-6 days.

When can I shower again?
You can shower for 3-4 minutes as early as the day after the operation.

When does the first follow-up appointment take place?
Two weeks after your breast operation.

When can I take a bath again?
We recommend bathing only 4 weeks after breast surgery.

When can I do sport again?
Endurance sport after 4 weeks, strength training after 6 weeks.

From when is everything allowed again?
After 6 weeks everything is usually possible again.

Pain after breast surgery

The pain after breast surgery depends on two factors:

• The type of breast operation: breast augmentation, breast lift with/without implant, position of the implants, position of the scars, etc.
• The patient: individual pain tolerance is of course somewhat different for every patient

Generally speaking, a breast augmentation feels like severe muscle ache – above all when the implants are placed beneath the chest muscle. But as long as you lie still it does not hurt. Changes of position or touching the breast are, however, uncomfortable. For the treatment of the pain we give you painkillers to take with you and explain to you exactly how they are to be taken. Dr. Dobrovits explains more about this in the following video.

What do patients say after their breast surgery?

«When I came home after the operation I had to cry for joy. I could not have imagined the result any better. My warm thanks go to Dr. Dobrovits and his team, who managed to make me fall in love with myself again.»

«After the operation I felt like a new person… my friends said to me, you are glowing so much, have you had something done to your face. No, a breast lift ;)»

A new life

For many patients a new life literally begins with their new breast. We look forward to seeing you again!
