If I have BBL surgery on the 9th, can I fly on the 12th?

Hi! Each surgeon has their own post-op instructions and you should follow your surgeons recommendations. But in my experience, it is not safe to travel back home so soon after this procedure. I ask my patients to stay in town for at least 5 days post-op. That way I can examine your skin, healing, you're more recovered for the flight back home and the risk of developing blood clots (deep vein thrombosis/pulmonary embolism) is lower. Hope this helps!

Hello Dear @be3zw0rld thank you for your question. It is always important to take into consideration the opinion of the specialist who is performing surgery. It depends a lot on the surgical technique and the technology used in this procedure. Best wishes! Alan Gonzalez MD, FACS.
