I'm a student and I want to do a tummy tuck and breast lift. However, I just wanted to know whether a month for recovery would be enough as Im limited on time constraints.

Answer: Tummy tuck recovery An excellent question. Combining procedure is a safe and effective way to make pleasing changes and shorten and reduce overall recovery time. The tummy tuck portion of the procedure will essentially dictate the recovery. 1 month will be plenty of recovery time to return to regular schoool work. At six weeks patients are able to resume cardiovascular exercises. Many patients feel comfortable returning to work and school after 2 weeks Best wishes, Dr. Jan

Answer: Recovery from tummy tuck and breast lift A month recovery should be more than enough time for a tummy tuck/breast lift provided you don't have to perform any strenuous activity of heavy lifting. You could even be in a classroom setting much sooner than one month in some cases.Best wishes,Dr.Bruno

Answer: Recovery Many thanks for your question. Recovery from a breast lift is quicker with dressings off and normal showering by a week, and you can take off the support bra and resume normal activities by 6 Weeks. Tummy tuck takes longer. The binder comes off at 6 weeks, but only light exercise until around 3 months post op.
