I'm thinking of going abroad to have a breast lift, tummy tuck, back liposuction. Will 10 days be long enough?
Having multiple procedures over seas is certainly obtainable, but I wold caution you on the recovery period. In many cases, 10 days should be OK or even two weeks. But, if you have a complication you will need a lot more time. Being far away from your doctor is not a great thing.
Travel and adventure!! Surgery should NOT be an adventure but rather a well-coordinated experience with ALL the aftercare you'll ever need if something goes amiss.
My advice ; dont do it ! As we speak I am taking care of 5 people whoose care will cost many times what it would have cost in their native country
I realize that the other surgeons have already said this, but I'll repeat it for the sake of stressing its importance. Please think very carefully about going overseas for surgery, and about having so many procedures done at once. You will be at high risk for complications even if you are not planning to travel afterwards. I would recommend waiting at least 2 weeks prior to travel. You should see your primary care physician in the UK for a full evaluation, as this person knows your medical condition better than your doctor overseas. Good luck, /nsn.
