If you are a career woman, then you know image is everything. According to a 201-survey conducted by ‘Healthline’, the top motivations that caused women to seek breast augmentation procedures was to improve their self-esteem and self-image. Not only is having natural, perfectly symmetrical breasts necessary for confidence in the bedroom, and for taking those tropical vacations while showing off a new bikini, but one’s perception of their own self-image plays directly into their professional identity, and it goes without saying that other industry professionals will notice one’s bodily aesthetics. Today, there are several reasons why career women seek the best breast augmentation Los Angeles surgeons to help them get the body of their dreams, and this article will go over the top reasons.
Breast Augmentation Surgery Has Proven to Be Advantageous for Career Women
It’s not a nice thing to imagine, but the cold truth is that people are judged by their appearance, especially when it comes to work. If you work in face-to-face sales, or you deal with the public, many people will create first impressions based on the individual’s appearance. While this isn’t fair, and it’s morally wrong, the stigma remains. In fact, studies show that women who had a corrective plastic surgery to gain an all-natural look reported having greater success in business. If one breast is larger than the other, or disproportionate, or if their breasts are sagging, breast augmentation surgery can give someone a younger, healthier look that will resonate throughout her professional life.
Breast Augmentation Enables Clothes to Fit Better
Many women who consider going down a size or two wonder about the benefits of getting breast reduction surgery as part of their augmentation approach. If you have a slender waist with large breasts, then you know all too well how problematic it can be to find clothes that properly fit. In some cases, you may have to take garments to a tailor, which can rack up thousands of dollars each year. Then there is the frustration of not being able to find the right outfit for that special occasion. Some women turn to breast augmentation surgery with a reduction so they can have a much easier time finding clothing that fits and feel better about themselves.
Breast Augmentation with a Reduction can Eliminate Ongoing Pain
If you have large breasts, you may be suffering from ongoing back, neck, or shoulder pain. Whether you spend a lot of time on your feet with clients, or you sit at a desk for most of your day, a heavy chest can interact with various nerves that create a great deal of pain. When you book a consultation with Dr. Peter Grossman, he will review your medical history, and if breast augmentation surgery with a reduction is recommended, he will explain the approach and go over the life-changing benefits.
Going Down a Few Sizes in a Breast Augmentation can Improve Your Mobility
Whether you want greater mobility to play with your kids, or exercise in the gym, going down a few sizes (if you have large breasts) in a breast augmentation surgery can open a whole new world of possibilities. If being fit is an advantage in your career, having smaller breasts that better fit your frame and can enable you to participate in more exercises. A breast reduction and repositioning can also better enable you to participate in company activities at conferences and team-building exercises.

Over the last several years, breast reduction surgery has become a very popular option for women who are looking to improve their looks and feel better overall. When Ariel Winter, the 17-year-old star of the hit TV show ‘Modern Family’ had breast reduction surgery so she could look better, and feel better, when walking the red carpet at the Emmy Awards, it became clear to thousands of women that breast reduction surgery is an ideal way for many women to achieve their health and beauty goals.
Even though the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery says that breast reduction surgery has one of the highest patient satisfaction rates, and that the procedure’s popularity increased by 183% since 1997, some women put off getting a consultation because they fear the breast reduction surgery recovery time. With most women already having experienced tenderness in their breasts, and because the breasts are such a focal point of the body, many women simply fear they will have a terrible recovery time. When you book a consultation with Dr. Peter Grossman, he will go over the breast reduction surgery recovery time with you, and put your mind at ease.
In the meantime, here are four tips to ensure you have a very easy, graceful recovery time after your breast reduction procedure.
1. Reduce Your Breast Reduction Surgery Recovery Time by Following the Doctor’s Discharge Instructions
No two patients will receive the exact same discharge instructions. First, you are unique; your existing health, aesthetic goals, lifestyle, and body together create a profile that’s entirely your own. That said, your discharge instructions after breast reduction surgery will be predicated on those factors. Despite this, there are some instructions that most patients will receive. For example, you will want to avoid lifting anything for the first few weeks after surgery. You will also likely be instructed to wear a surgical bra, compression garment, and even wrap your breasts in gauze. Your breast reduction surgery recovery will be easier if you take your pain medicine as directed, stay in a rested position like the sofa or bed for the first week or two, and have someone on hand that can help you with basic tasks such as cooking your meals, cleaning the home, and you may even need someone to help you get around for the first few days. You will also want to keep the surgical area out of direct sunlight and keep all follow-up appointments to ensure you are healing properly.
2. Take Pain Medication Responsibly
You will likely be prescribed some medication for pain management. Make sure you take your medication as prescribed. Do not exceed your doctor’s recommended dosage; if you are following the prescription’s instructions and are still experiencing pain, call your surgeon without delay. Avoid taking pain medication to help you fall asleep, as this medication is prescribed to help you manage your pain, and it is not meant to promote sleep. If you are having trouble sleeping, call your doctor and he will potentially prescribe something for sleep, and it will be safe to take with your pain medication (if prescribed at all). Finally, do not store your medication to take at another time; take the pills as needed so that you can better manage your pain.
3. Don’t Exercise After Breast Reduction Surgery (Here’s Why)
Exercising releases endorphins that make us happy, and if fitness is a big part of your lifestyle, you may be tempted to exercise after your surgery. However, straining, lifting, and exercising too early after getting breast reduction surgery can have a devastating impact on your recovery. Some common complications that may arise from exercising too soon after breast reduction surgery includes the following:
- Reopening the incisions
- Pulling out sutures
- Severe or prolonged pain
- Delayed healing
- Need for a revision procedure
- Implant rupture
- Implant shifting or displacement
- Infection
After your breast reduction surgery, your main focus needs to be on resting, recovering, and healing. This means you need to follow your doctor’s orders, and if he tells you to avoid exercise, it is for a very good reason.
4. Don’t Rush Your Breast Reduction Surgery Recovery
After the first month has passed since you had your breast reduction surgery, you will likely be feeling pretty good. You may be tempted to resume your normal life, but under no circumstance should you alter your activity during recovery without first consulting with your doctor. After the first month, your breasts may look healed and soft. However, looks can be deceiving, especially if you don’t know what to look for. You may still be experiencing some swelling (this can last for some time). Be sure to move at the recommended opaque your surgeon sets, and don’t rush anything, even if you feel good.
