Can someone got to the beach a week after the surgery? If you want to have sex with a significant other can your body still be swollen, and your body would be a turn off for the other person a week or two weeks right after the procedure?
Answer: Beach After Surgery? It takes a few weeks to feel and look better after liposuction. Swelling can be significant in some cases. I suggest talking to your physician about the type of surgery you are having done (local versus hi definition) and the type of downtime you would be suspecting. Best, Dr. Emer.

Answer: Vacation after plastic surgery This would depend on what type of procedure you are having. For breast augmentation then you would be fine but probably not for a tummy tuck or body contouring procedure.

Answer: Can someone go to the beach a week after the surgery Thank you for submitting your question. Swelling after liposuction will last for many weeks and months after surgery. You will have pain with activities and contour irregularities after 1 week. I would recommend ypu wait 6 weeks before going to the beach, or earlier but plan to use a one piece. Discuss your concerns with your Plastic Surgeon and follow his recommendations.

Answer: It is not recommended that you go to the beach so soon after a procedure. If you are concerned about what your body may look like, it is important to note that bruising and mild swelling are to be expected immediately after an operation like this. You should start to notice improvement within two to four weeks and should have a relatively final impression of your results anywhere from three to six months. Vigorous exercise should be avoided for at least 2 weeks after any sort of procedure, as it is important that your body gets the proper rest in order to heal. Even relaxing on the beach could prove detrimental to the healing process, as it is best to keep new scars out of direct sunlight.

Answer: Going to the beach after surgery I assume you are talking about the procedure of lipocontouring. Bruising varies tremendously from area to area (i.e., neck vs thighs) and person to person. As a rule of thumb, I ask my patients not to go into the sun until all of the bruising has completely disappeared. Bruised skin means healing skin that should not be traumatized by external factors such as sun exposure. You can have sex after two weeks even with those who are not your significant other. Ha - but, yes, you certainly can start having sex again taking into account a host of different factors one of which you hit on: how much discomfort the person still has, how you look both to you as well as your partner, whether there is any residual drainage, etc. One of my other rule of thumbs is to tell the patient that if they feel up to having sex then go right on ahead.
