How long until you can you have sex after a Tummy Tuck?

Common sense prevails! If it hurts, you shouldn't do it. If it doesn't hurt, you are probably fine. There are so many variables, possibilities, and positions that one has to use common sense. Check with your surgeon for specific post op instructions.

Like most things during your recovery, there are not typically absolute rules related to when certain activities can be restarted. Some surgeons will ask you to use your own body as a guide, avoiding those things that are especially painful until they are less so. Other surgeons will have a strict set of guidelines to follow. Some are in between.  My suggestion would be to check with your surgeon. You have likely chosen him or her because there is some trust in your relationship and you surgeon would likely appreciate the opportunity to be your best resource for this type of question.Best,Dr. Pyle
