These foods can help reduce swelling, speed up wound healing, and prevent breast infections. Dr. Gun also shares some foods to avoid after breast augmentation, as these can cause inflammation and slow down healing.
Breast augmentation diet for faster recovery
During the first 7 days after surgery
Patients should eat bland, easy-to-digest foods, such as porridge, rice gruel, steamed oatmeal, and stewed or steamed dishes. They should avoid spicy, salty, or sweet foods, as well as foods that require a lot of chewing. Patients should also drink plenty of fluids, at least 8 glasses or 2 liters per day.
During the 1-month recovery period
During the recovery period, patients should eat nutritious foods that focus on protein from lean meats, such as beef, chicken, and fish. This will help cells regenerate quickly and promote wound healing. Patients should also avoid high-fat foods or foods with unhealthy fats. Instead, they should focus on healthy fats, such as avocado, olive oil, rice bran oil, peanut oil, soybean oil, and sesame oil.
Snacks should be low in sodium to help reduce swelling. Nuts, such as almonds, cashews, and unsalted peanuts, are a good choice.

Fruits and vegetables are essential for a healthy recovery after breast augmentation surgery.
- Fruits : Fruits are a good source of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, which can help support the healing process. Focus on eating fruits that are high in fiber, such as berries, citrus fruits, leafy greens, and cruciferous vegetables. You should also aim to get at least 200 milligrams of vitamin C per day, which can help boost the immune system and reduce inflammation. Good sources of vitamin C include oranges, grapefruits, kiwis, strawberries, broccoli, and bell peppers.
- Vegetables : Vegetables are also a good source of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. Focus on eating non-starchy vegetables, such as broccoli, carrots, celery, cucumbers, green beans, and peppers. You should also aim to get at least 400 grams of vegetables per day.

Foods to avoid after surgery
- Eggs : Eggs are generally safe to eat after surgery, but there are a few things to keep in mind. First, people with allergies should avoid eggs. Second, eggs that are not properly cooked can be contaminated with salmonella, which can cause food poisoning. If you choose to eat eggs, make sure they are cooked thoroughly.(Salmonella)
- Seafood : Raw or undercooked seafood is a risk for food poisoning, which can lead to inflammation. It is best to avoid seafood altogether during the recovery period.
- Pickled foods : Pickled foods, such as sauerkraut, kimchi, and pickles, are often made with unpasteurized vinegar, which can contain harmful bacteria. It is best to avoid these foods during the recovery period.
- Smoking and alcohol : Smoking and alcohol can slow down the healing process and increase the risk of infection. It is best to avoid these substances for at least 7-14 days after surgery.
