Answer: When is it OK to go out? You should really check with your surgeon on this question. If you were my patient, I would recommend against doing this for at least 6 weeks after surgery. If you will be drinking, you could easily do something to damage your results. While you may be feeling great, you have just had a major surgery and you owe it to yourself to give yourself the best recovery period possible.

Answer: Clubbing after surgery Unfortunately I don't believe that you're far enough out from surgery to be going out and drinking. You are still healing internally and going out could possibly be detrimental to the progress you've made so far. Check with your board certified plastic surgeon on his/her preferences.Thank you for your question!Melinda Lacerna, MD FACS
