At the New York City plastic surgery practice of Dr. Joshua Greenwald, women often rush in during the early summer months to request breast augmentation surgery, so they can look fabulous in their bikinis and in other warm-weather clothes. However, a better time to pursue breast augmentation surgery might actually be during the winter months. “Why is that?” you ask. Let us tell you.
The first reason to consider undergoing breast augmentation surgery in winter is this ensures that your figure will be ready for the beach by summer. Although you will notice an improvement in the look of your breasts immediately following surgery (i.e., Your breasts will be perkier and more voluminous.), your breast profile will continue to improve as your body heals, allowing the residual swelling to subside and any scarring at the incision sites to fade. In addition, it takes several months after surgery for the enhanced breasts to settle into a more natural-looking position on the chest wall.
The second reason that undergoing breast augmentation surgery during the winter months is a smart move is that, during the cold months, the postoperative bandages and the surgical bra that breast augmentation patients are required to wear can be easily concealed under thicker sweaters and jackets.
Also, if you are trying to keep your breast augmentation surgery “under wraps,” so to speak, covering your newly enhanced breast profile with cold-weather clothing for a few months may help you introduce your new figure to friends and colleagues gradually. By starting to wear more form-fitting clothes little by little, you can subtly reveal your shapelier breast profile.
Finally, undergoing breast augmentation surgery in winter means that you will have attained your dream breasts in time for the New Year, so you have one less resolution to make next year!
