Even though your summer vacation might seem far away right now, you could make the most of cooler weather by scheduling your breast lift with implants now.
In fact, the fall and winter months are the best seasons for breast augmentation, for a number of reasons.
-
Taking Time Off
Most people tend to get extra time off work during the winter months around the holidays. Plus, summer vacation time can be tricky to schedule, as some companies limit the amount of time you can take off during this hot time of year for family trips.
Plan to take anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks off work to recover from your breast augmentation and lift.

Staying out of the Sun
While you recover, you’ll need to stay out of the sun whenever possible. The sun’s UV rays can make scarring worse and create complications during the healing process. If you get your procedure in the winter, this shouldn’t be as tall of an order.
-
Covering Up
After your breast enhancement procedure, you’ll be much more comfortable sporting comfy winter outfits than tight-fitting summer ones. Cozy up with a good book and an oversized sweater or zip-up sweatshirt and treat yourself to some R&R.

Seeing Results in Time for Summer
It can take several months for your final breast augmentation results to develop, so you’ll want to schedule your procedure before summer vacation so you can debut your new bikini without swelling or other temporary effects like the “square boob” look.
