Dear Gabsg,The time needed for recovery depends on the specific procedures that were done and how rapidly you heal...It is best to give yourself 2-3 weeks. If a mini-tummy tuck or just a simple breast augmentation is done, you can go back to work in1-2 weeks.It also depends the level of physical activity needed at work.Hope this was helpful.Best,Dr Sajjadian
If a tummy tuck is part of the planned operation, the minimum time to return to a sedentary job would be 1 week.Kenneth Hughes, MDLos Angeles, CA
