Most surgeons will view 6 weeks as the healing time for common surgical procedures, so this I would say is the minimum. The body needs to recover from the healing process so a longer period will be beneficial. You will be the best judge of when you have recovered and are back to normal activities and then it may be time to consider a second procedure. Jeremy Hunt
You can probably safely have a breast reduction even a few days after cholecystectomy. This of course would be done with the full consent of the general surgeon and plastic surgeon.
You just want to be fully recovered and released by the general surgeon prior to a breast reduction. A breast reduction is a large operation and with a laproscopic gall bladder surgery the recovery is not going to be as long or stressful to your body. If you have medical condition I would do the gall bladder first, just to be on the safe side.
From a recuperation/anesthesia standpoint, you should space the procedures at least six weeks apart. If the gallbladder operation is purely elective, then the order is up to you. However, if you are symptomatic and having attacks, then this should be the priority. Best wishes.
There are no rules on this but there is a slightly higher rate of certain complications when some surgeries are done in a short period of time. Since surgery & anesthesia can rarely trigger a gallbladder attack, you may want to do the gallbladder surgery before the breast reduction. You may discuss this with your surgeons.
Always best to check with the surgeons involved to see if either has specific preferences/recommendations. Assuming there are no complications with either surgery, probably best to wait at least one month between operations. Best wishes for successful outcomes with both operations.
After 6 weeks I would suggest it is safe to sleep on your stomach.Give it a try and it will be uncomfortable, but unlikely to be harmful. Remember trying to touch your toes can be uncomfortable , but not harmful, just be sensible Jeremy Hunt

You may be borderline in getting insurance coverage. Most insurance companies require a minimum of 500 grams of tissue needing to be removed from each breast, and that usually equates to a DD cup. Your best bet is to see a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon that specializes in breast reduction and...
