How long after surgery (TT,BL) do you have to wait until you can take a shower?

Thanks for the question. After a tummy tuck surgery you can take a shower after 3 days. I wish you all the best.

Thank you for your question.  As each surgeon has their own unique set of post op instructions, you may wish to discuss this with your surgeon.  That being said, typically we will tell patients that they may take quick showers after the tape has been removed from their BBL, which often times is the first three days. It is important for the tape to remain dry..Best regard,Dr. Lane F. Smith, MDPlastic SurgeonLas Vegas, NV

I typically let my patients shower 2 days after surgery.  I see them one day after surgery to make sure everything ok and give them the go-ahead.
