Tummy tuck and breast reduction - together or separate? Could I go back to work after 2 weeks? (Photo)

Victoria258
I am 5'7", weigh 165lb, age 52, healthy and on no medications. A highly qualified PS has said these combined procedure could take up to 8 hours. I am concerned about the length of the op, if it was 8 hours. I also have two weeks off work - a desk job, I can't take 3 weeks. So need to be back at work after the two weeks - would I manage with the two procedures. or should I spilt them?
