"Is breast implant surgery done as an outpatient surgery or is there a hospital stay involved?"


— Answered by Gary C. Burget, MD

Yes, breast augmentation is usually done as an outpatient procedure. No overnight stay is required. You may be permitted to go home after a few hours, unless you and your plastic surgeon have determined that you will stay in the hospital or surgical facility overnight.
