Question

Stefan Mark Szczerba, MD · Answer

Every plastic surgeon will have their own recipe for how to best recover.  We simply want you to avoid direct pressure for 6 weeks.  We have never required much in terms of a "recovery suite" but 48 hours would be great and anything beyond a week is luxury.  Best Wishes!!

Jan Hochtritt, BSc, MD · Answer

Thank you very much for this question. The after care procedures are individually very much different. The recovery house is not a hospital, but a place primarily for people that come from abroad and will need some amount of care they would not be able to receive in a hotel or at home. The time you have to spend there it depends very much on the treating plastic surgeon. Have a wonderful rest of the day and greetings from the beautiful island of Jamaica.

Thank you for your question.  Every surgeon will have his/her own preferences as to recovery for specific procedures.  I have patients stay for a week after the surgery to make sure that everything has healed well and they can go back to their normal activities.That said, you definitely have to choose your surgeon correctly and make sure that he/she has the training and experience to meet your goals with absolute safety.  Best is a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon with specialized expertise in this procedure.

Ricardo Ventura, MD · Answer

Thank you for your question,I recommend to those patients from outside of the country to stay at least 12-15 days after the procedure in this way you and your PS can be sure that you don’t have any complications and you could have a good flight back home; about the recovery time, it depends of the patient but I could say about 30 days (1 month). I recommend you to ask to your plastic surgeon because every surgeon has his or her own opinion.  Best of luck!

Ron Hazani, MD, FACS · Answer

Most patients resume light daily activities in a few days after the surgery and return to work in about a week or 10 days. Consult your surgeon for post op instructions.
