I see people say you should at least wait 2 weeks before going back to work, but I really can't take that long off of work. I want to know if it's realistically possible to go back to work after 1 week? I work a desk job and I can work from home 75% of the time.

Answer: Time off work Thank you for your question, If you work a desk job then one week after surgery should be fine you should contact your PS to discuss your post op care instructions, best of luck.

Answer: Returning to Work After a Mommy Makeover This is a discussion you should have with your surgeon. For my patients, I tell them to plan on being off work 2 to 3 weeks. Usually they are able to drive after 2 weeks. Trying to rush your recovery is not a good idea, however people heal at different rates. Good luck.

Answer: Can I go to work a week after surgery Hello, thank you for recent question! I would recommend that you take at least 2 weeks off of work even though you have a desk job. You will be very tired and have drains in place which I would not recommend you return to work until the last drain is out. Best of luck!
