When can I sleep on my side after breast augmentation?

For the first days, patients sleep elevated, for another few weeks, sleeping flat is the only option. Sleeping side is possible not sooner than after 6 weeks, yet sometimes it may be 2 months until patients are allowed to sleep on the back. Sleeping position is particularly important, so if women are used to sleeping on the side or stomach, they should start changing sleeping habits even before the surgery to get prepared for that.
