I am having a mommy makeover in a wee and my doctor says it's an outpatient procedure but if I want I can stay overnight. My question is. Is it okay to go home the same day from the hospital or it it will be safer for me to stay overnight.

Thank you for asking about your mommy make-over recovery.How long ago was your mommy make-over? I assume it was recent.Unless you had buttock surgery or liposuction, the buttocks will not be changed.Explanations for their temporarily looking flatter include - posture, muscle spasm, swelling of...
A concern in combining these procedures is that an important part of your recovery from breast augmentation and tummy tuck surgery is early ambulation (walking around). This is to help lower the risk of blood clot formation. The bunion surgery could affect your ability to walk around as needed.
The determining factor for recovery after these two procedures is the tummy tuck. My patients usually require at least some minimal help for the first five days and then, soon thereafter, can be quite independent with driving and being able to leave the home and take care of themselves.
