How long after surgery (TT,BL) do you have to wait until you can take a shower?

I typically let my patients shower 2 days after surgery.  I see them one day after surgery to make sure everything ok and give them the go-ahead.

Thank you for your question. As always, you should follow your plastic surgeon's recommendations.  In my practice, I allow patients to shower the day following their procedure as long as they feel up to it. You should always have someone with you the first time you shower as you may feel faint or unsteady following your surgery.Best of luck,
