I appreciate your question. I would recommend that you discuss this question with your surgeon prior to your operation. Your surgeon is your best resource as he/she is most familiar with your medical history and how you will be healing following surgery,The best way to assess and give true advice would be an in-person exam. Please see a board-certified plastic surgeon that specializes in aesthetic and restorative plastic surgery. Best of luck!
