When can I drive after a tummy tuck, liposuction and BBL? (Photo)

You should check with your surgeon, but I ask my patients not to sit on the buttock region grafted for BBL for 2 weeks. That means no driving for 2 weeks. Good luck!

First and foremost, I would follow the advice of your surgeon. They will know what medical condition you are in, which is more important than any time frame. That said, I generally have my patients weight between two and four weeks after their operation to begin driving.It is imperative that you seek the advice of a plastic
surgeon who is certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery and has
extensive experience in tummy tuck / abdominoplasty.

I wish you the best.

Dr. Gabbay.

Congratulations on your surgery! I tell my patients that they can drive when they are off all narcotics and can comfortably turn from side to side. If you are in pain and can't move well then you are probably not yet safe to drive. If your pain is minimal and you can look around comfortably, then you should be ready.

Thank you for your pictures. The recommendation for driving is going to depend on your surgeons approach to your post operative care. In my opinion it would not be advisable to drive for the first 3 to 4 weeks after surgery. Please consult with your plastic surgeon asked to his or her protocol regarding this matter. Good luck. 

After a tummy tuck and Brazilian butt lift you should expect to be driving after about 3 weeks. There are devices designed to offload the buttocks so that you may be able to drive sooner. 

Follow your own surgeon's instructions which are specific to your case rather than seeking a consensus opinion from other plastic surgeons. For this combination surgery, I would advise 3 weeks' minimum no driving.

I allow my patients to drive as early as one week after tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) surgery as long as they feel up to it, and are no longer taking narcotic pain medications.
