I am having a tummy tuck procedure done soon, but I just started a new job. Is it safe to return to work 10 days after the procedure? I have a desk job.

Answer: Tummy Tuck - Return to work? Thank you for your question. Most patients are able to return to a desk job ten days following their tummy tuck. however, you will not be able to perform any heavy lifting or strenuous physical activity. Please discuss your concerns with your board certified plastic surgeon prior to your procedure. Hope this helps and good luck.

Answer: Returning to Work After a Tummy Tuck It usually takes a week or so before the patient can stand up straight and walk normally. For my patients, drains are removed at 7 to 10 days. Each patient heals differently, my patients are usually able to return to work in 10 to 14 days. Good luck!
