I just found it weird that you go home an walk so much the same day when after a c section they don't make you walk the same day.
Answer: Moving after Surgery It is important to walk and move after any surgery and even during long plane rides to keep your blood flowing to prevent blood clots that can break off and go to your lungs. Best to follow your surgeon's advice. Good luck!

Answer: Tummy Tuck Day of Surgery Thank you for your question. Your abdominoplasty may be performed in a hospital or at our surgical outpatient facility. A general anesthetic is administered, so that you will be asleep throughout the procedure. When surgery is completed, you will be taken into a recovery area where you will continue to be closely monitored. Small drain tubes will have been placed within the abdominal tissues to help avoid accumulation of fluids. Gauze or other dressings may be applied to your abdomen and covered with tape or an elastic bandage.

Answer: Outpatient basis Yes, a tummy tuck is generally performed on an outpatient basis. That means you go home the same day, after spending a few hours in the recovery room at the surgical facility. Leisurely walking around a bit after surgery reduces the risk of blood clots.

Answer: Do you go homethe same day after TT? Thank you for your question. In some cases you will stay the night in a facility, a TT and C section are different surgeries. We encourage our patients to ambulate after their TT surgery. Best,

Answer: Go home the same day after Tummy Tuck ? I perform surgery at an outpatient surgery center. Most patients are usually discharged home the same day as surgery, preferably with a nurse for one day. It is the rare patient who, for a variety of reasons, may benefit from additional monitoring ( as an overnight stay or as an inpatient). Regardless, when you are discharged home it is important to have a good support system to help you during the healing process ( the more help the better). Generally speaking, the tummy tuck operation is associated with a very significant physical (and often emotional) recovery period, often underestimated by patients. Best wishes.
