Is it ok to have sushi 4 days after a TT?

Thank you for your question.  It is always best to consult with your operating physician first when you have questions related to your particular recovery experience.  That being said, we advise our patients to refrain from consuming any blood thinning agents, such as sushi, seafood, certain hers and medications, etc. for a minimum of 10-14 days post operatively.With kind regards,Lane F.

It is absolutely to fine to eat sushi four days after a tummy tuck.  There are no food restrictions following an abdominoplasty.  However, it is important to stay well-hydrated.  I hope this helps!

Thanks for your question.  After a tummy tuck and other surgery, eating healthy, low-fat, high protein diet will help with healing.  Thus eating sushi would be fine.  

There is no reason to avoid sushi after a tummy tuck to my knowledge. The important diet points are to maintain a normal level of protein and vitamins before and after surgery to give yourself the best chance of healing well. Supplements are not necessary, just a balanced diet....which can include sushi. 

Hello,Your Plastic Surgeon may advise you to avoid known blood thinners such as herbal supplements but any regular diet should be fine.All the best

Best to eat whatever you feel like eating! Most patients tend to stay away from heavy, large meals and prefer to eat smaller, more frequent meals after undergoing a muscle repair with the TT. Best of luck for great results!

Thank you for your question and congratulations on your recent tummy tuck. It is important to eat a healthy diet high in protein and green vegetables to support your healing. Sushi is safe to eat as well.Please follow your plastic surgeons specific advice regarding your level of physical activity and use of a compression garment. Hope this helps and good luck with your recovery.

Any normal and reasonable diet is fine after 3-4 days after tummy tuck.  However, constipation is to be avoided after this operation .

Sushi should be fine to eat as long as you don't have an allergy to shellfish. Make sure you are drinking plenty of water and limiting your salt intake. Good luck and congrats on your surgery!

Some Asian cultures recommend avoiding seafood such as shrimp and shellfish after surgery.However, most Western plastic surgeons would be fine with sushi or fish.Best wishes.
