Traveling after Brazilian butt lift and Tummy Tuck

There no local surgeons who perform Brazilian butt lift and Tummy Tuck altogether in my area. If I travel, how long will I need to stay in the area where the surgery will be performed? How does someone travel after this procedure to post-op caring or back home? Are there medical rate hotels or someone who could help arrange all of this?
