Fasting after plastic surgery?

Okay I know this sounds very dumb probably but I need to know so I plan on getting a boob job and I fasting a lot for health reasons and weight loss, I plan on fasting for the rest of my life..(not continuously obviously) if I get a boob job and go on a long 30 day fast for example, my body wouldn’t “eat” the implants would they?.. (sorry for my English and thanks for the help)

Answer

The implants are inorganic and can not be “consumed”. Please wait for a while to fast and allow yourself to heal after surgery. If you can please consult with a physician that knows about fasting like a knowledgeable integrative medicine practitioner.

Answer

Not a good idea, I recently had a nose job and even though it’s a completely different surgery, your body needs nutrients to heal up. Maybe wait until 2-3 months after your surgery. Ask you r surgeon as well to be safe!

Answer

Wait at the bare minimum 6-8 weeks after surgery to allow your body to heal. You will also need to wear a post-op bra during this time. If you lose a lot of weight very quickly after a boob job, it can also cause an effect called ‘rippling’ where fat loss around the implant can cause the implant to be revealed; this is more likely with saline implants and ‘above-the-muscle’ procedures. If you are getting silicone implants this is less likely, especially if they’re placed ‘under the muscle’.

But definitely wait at least 6-8 weeks as a bare minimum – your body needs to heal. During the recovery process you should eat a balanced and healthy diet with plenty of protein. It’s also important to wear your post-op bra and your surgeon may ask you to sleep upright for the first few weeks (discuss with your individual surgeon for the best advice).

Answer

I had abdominal surgery that didn’t go well. I didn’t eat for 5 days due to the pain from eating.

My scars healed up so nice and fast.

I’ve had that type of abdominal surgery before and it didn’t heal so quickly as when I fasted right after.
