Boob jobs and pole tricks
How long after getting fake boobs did you wait before getting back on the pole?
I asked my surgeon and the nurse and they both said 3 wks. This seems a little soon:O ?? I think they both have the idea that pole means putting on heels and strutting around a pole. I don't think they understood my idea of pole involves spins, flips and inversions.
Re: Boob jobs and pole tricks
Three weeks isn't nearly long enough, especially if the implants are under the muscle. I would consider waiting 4-6 weeks. You might lose a few bucks if you tend to rely on pole tricks for money, but you don't want to risk messing up the implants.
Re: Boob jobs and pole tricks
Well the general rule is if it hurts or feels very uncomfortable don't do it anymore. I went back to the stage about 4 months after and man did it feel weird to do pole tricks. Then again I had little skin to begin with and they were still very tight.
Re: Boob jobs and pole tricks
I concur on the 6 weeks ... you don't want to run the risk of 'shifting' the position of one of your implants before enough scar tissue forms to hold them firmly in place !!!
Re: Boob jobs and pole tricks
I waited 3 months before trying ANYTHING, and even then, I could barely do spins and stuff, because they were tight and it felt weird. I just *barely* started doing lots of tricks that require upper body strength, though now I have to build it back up, cuz I lost it all!
Re: Boob jobs and pole tricks
I'd ask your doc how long to wait before lifting weights. See what they say then...but yah 6 weeks or more depending on how you feel.
Re: Boob jobs and pole tricks
Ooooh, I wanna see your new boobers! Did you get them yet? Are you back at the old club?
Re: Boob jobs and pole tricks
I third that you should treat pole tricks as you would any other weight-lifting activity. I would suggest starting to lift light weights at 4 weeks (or whenever the doctor clears you for it) and then moving up to moderate, then seeing how much of your body weight you can support. It will definitely feel a little weird for a while. I remember even swimming was hard after my BA.
Re: Boob jobs and pole tricks
I waited probably about 6 weeks, but I can't do anything because my boobs look funky upside down.:( sucks. Be careful because I've heard of girls really doing some damadge from doing too much too soon.
Re: Boob jobs and pole tricks
I guess I'm going to wait another month at least before I attempt anything. My boobs are not even 3 weeks old and they are partial unders. There is no way I want to risk messing them up.
Yesterday I tried vacuuming and I could definitely feel the muscle clenching up. If vacuuming feels weird I know I better wait that much longer before I take a spin on the pole.
Poor little pole though. Its collecting dust in the living room. I was using it everyday. Now it gathers cobwebs...

Oh hell ya I'll show you my new boobers! I'm not back in the biz yet, but I'll let you know when I am. I think my boobs feel good enough for going back to work, but the past 3 wks of sitting around healing has led to my ass gaining 10 pounds. So now I have to deal with that before I hit up a club. I don't know if I'll go back to P-10's though. When I'm ready I'm going to shop around. Plus I've been out so long Im nervous about going back. :-\

Now you've got me all curious as to what fake boobs look like upside-down. What do yours do that make them look funny?

I've got that muscle reflex deformity or w/e it's called, where the implant is like partially under the muscle so when I flex my pec muscles (basically any time climbing up the pole.) It looks funny. Then when I hang upside down I dunno I've got ripples in my bags and I just don't like it so I either wear a top to go upside down or hold them in my hands. I like my boobs when they are regular just any old way except for upside down or flexing lol.
Re: Boob jobs and pole tricks
I am glad to hear someone has sense!!
Apparently your doctor wants more money out of you....since the advise he gave you will do nothing more than get you back in his office quicker!!
PLEASE wait AT LEAST 6-8 WEEKS!!!!!!! Even if they are only partially under.
Think of it this way...the human body requires time to heal! A sprain can take 8-12 weeks, a muscle tear can take 10-16 weeks. Why would anyone believe that your breast tissue would heal any quicker?????
Think about it...they cut through the muscle...and then TEAR the muscle away from the chest cavity.
I have complete under...I waited 4 months....and I still have mild seperation caused by too much pole!
If you dont wait.....as Melonie stated, the scar tissue will not have built up enough to protect the implant, and it WILL NOT hold it in place.
You can also get capsulating, bag misplacement, or an infection in the cavity caused by internal tearing. One implant higher than the other (from constantly raising your pole arm), nipples pointing in opposing manner (intramuscular tearing under the areola).
With partial unders...you should not be doing pole work without a bra on....also be cautious to sleep in a sports bra. With the implant being under the top muscle, and over the bottom...you pec strength will push the implant down over time...there is no muscle over the bottom of the implant. It can look like the implant has slipped down (puppy ears).
A girlfriend of mine had 1/2's...she had the intramuscular infection and had to have them removed....YES from the pole......she will never be able to get another set...it ruined her!
I dont want to sound horrible...but I seriously hope what I have said has scared the shit out of you enough to make you not use the pole...at least for a while longer!
I am a SERIOUS Pole enthusiast....but even I am smart enough to understand the pole will be there when you are healed! You only have one body...please take care of it!

Congrats, let me know where you are going! Do you remember Nikki (stagename)? She went to Sugars and has been really happy there last we spoke. But that was months ago, and you know how things change.
The Rose is a huge frat party, along with sorority girls. I also havn't been in a little while, but it seemed like a pain in the ass to work there. But I have usually gone in a group on a weekend night. More girls are drinking and getting high than working, but there is lots of potential.
