Hello Board Certified & Plastic Surgeons. Thank you for your artistic hands and commitment that transforms our bodies, which raises our self esteem %100. Im flying 1.5 hrs. on Delta Airlines to have my TT and lipo on fanks. My 2nd day after my TT is it safe to fly back to Atlanta, Ga. I will have my drains removed by a plastic surgeon here in Atlanta. Is it safe to fly the 2nd day after. 2nd. By looking at my photos, do you think a TT and lipo to the flanks will give me the waistline I long
