Implant removal + mastopexy downtime - When can I fly?

llluz
Hi! I have had breast implants for about 16 years, and have decided to remove them since the implants have become deformed. Together with the implant removal, I plan to do a mastopexy (I have small breasts) and an inverted nipple surgery. I live in a different country and will travel on a 15 hours flight to get to the surgery destination and then back. I only have around 12 for everything before traveling back. Is this enough time for these procedures before flying back? Thank you so much
