Can I travel 6 days post brachioplasty?

Thanks for your question.  I think six days is too early to consider traveling out of the country.  While the recovery from an arm-lift can vary considerably depending on the amount of tissue removed and the technique used, I would still recommend waiting at least 3 or 4 weeks to travel out of the country.  At 6 days there is generally still quite a bit of swelling.  Most importantly, I would suggest discussing this with your surgeon who is in the best position to give you advice as to when you will be safe to travel.  Good luck.

Thanks for your question. Traveling after only 6 days seems too early to me. Arm lift surgery can have a speedy recovery, depending on the steps of the procedure and which technique is done, so I would check with your PS to be sure. Best, Dr. Aldo
