I want to get a breast lift and implant done in another state because the cost is better but I can’t afford to wait two weeks before flying back home.
Answer: Breast Lift Thanks for the question. You should be able to go on vacation by 3-4 weeks after your surgery. But this is valid only with assuming postoperative recovery is uneventful. If any unexpected incident happens in your treatment process, this time can be extended or shortened. I wish you all the best.

Answer: Flying after surgery Normally it is wise to wait a week so the inflammatory cascade after surgery has calmed down and you are at less of a risk for a clot after surgery. With that said, I recommend that you wear compression stockings and walk on the plane to avoid these complications.

Answer: Low Cost Plastic Surgery Hello,Without knowing the specifics, you should be wary of price shopping in plastic surgery. It is a documented and new media publicized way of increasing your risk for complications and suboptimal results. If your surgeon of choice isn't an ABPS certified/ASAPS member surgeon with a lot of experience, you should think twice. Best of luck!
