Tummy tuck, lipo, breast aug and fat transfer to buttock. How long after surgery can I drink. I’m 55. Give me two time frames - at least how long and best case scenario. Thank you.
Answer: When todrink after Mommy Makeover Ideally, we recommend you drink plenty of water after your surgery to help with the swelling. You will be able to start drinking water 3 hours after your surgery. We prescribe our patients antibiotics and painkillers after their surgery; therefore, you won't be allowed to consume alcohol for at least 1 week. Alcohol thins the blood which interferes with the healing process. Also, mixing alcohol with antibiotics and painkillers is a dangerous combination. We advise you not to consume alcohol while you are on antibiotics and painkillers, so at least 1 week. Thank you.

Answer: Age 55, how long after a Mommy Maker & fat transfer to buttock can we drink? Hello @SkinnyCoach, thank you for your question. This has more to do with the medication send by the specialist for recovery. Indications must be linked to clinical recommendations based on the healing process between three and six weeks. Best wishes! Alan Gonzalez MD, FACS.

Answer: Alcohol The answer to your question really depends on what you mean by "drink". During the beginning of recovery patients typically receive narcotic based pain medication for pain management. You should not consume any alcohol until after you are no longer taking this medication. A few weeks after surgery an occasional alcoholic drink should be fine as long as you are healing normally. Excessive alcohol consumption is not recommended.
