How long would one have to wait before resuming regular sexual activity after surgery ? I was told in can be up to 3 weeks? Is this correct ?
Answer: Usually two week... Sexual activity can be classified in the same category as exercise in general. After eyelid surgery the usual wait is two weeks before exercise, and then to ease into it. As long as nothing hurts or your eyes don't get more swollen, you can advance how strenuous it is. Be sure to listen to your surgeon because he/she will know your individual situation much better.

Answer: It somewhat depends on how vigorous your sex life is. That means you need to use some judgement. Certainly by three weeks, there is generally enough healing that many would be fine. My professional athletes are advised to refrain from vigorous training for 6 weeks after eyelid surgery. If your sex life is professional athlete vigorous, first, good for you, second, it might be prudent for you to heal from eyelid surgery a bit longer. Get where I am going with this?

Answer: Sex after cosmetic eyelid surgery Plastic surgeons generally advise all patients to avoid any heavy or strenuous activity, including sex, for at least 2 weeks after plastic surgery. For patients who have had multiple procedures (ex. facelift, etc), the wait might be longer depending on the individual's recovery process. Ultimately, one should ask their plastic surgeon specifically how long they must wait.Best,Dr. Chaboki
