I am suitable for a tummy tuck and I will combine it with a BBL. I am a flight attendant with an international airline. How much time should i take off work for recovery.

Answer: Recovery Typically patients can return to non physically demanding jobs 2 to 3 weeks after a tummy tuck. Because your occupation includes long flights, long periods on your feet, and lifting you may need to consider 5 or 6 weeks. You will have lifting restrictions in place of no more than 10 pounds for the first six weeks. Your surgeon will advise what is best for you based on your surgical plan.

Answer: Recovery time for a flight attendant post TT and BBL HI Confidence, I know how hard flight attendants work and especially those who fly on long hauls. I would recommend that you take at least 6 weeks off to fully recover. This is with a caveat that there are no wound healing problems at all at that time. By this , I mean that your wounds are fully closed , that there are no signs of infection and that you are able to resume full activities without pain. Of course, it is extremely important that you get permission from your plastic surgeon before returning to full time work. Good Luck! Dr. Christine Rodgers
