When can I fly after liposuction, fat transfer and rhinoplasty? And what about arboxytherapy post-liposuction?

Asked By:colorfulsky in New York, NY

I want to get a belly liposuction and fat transfer to my butt and breasts. Also, at the same time I want to get a small rhinoplasty (just for flared nostrils). When is it safe to fly after all of these procedures? Also, my friend's dad is a plastic surgeon and said that doing 10 sessions of carboxytherapy 10 days after liposuction will help get a very nice result and smooth even skin. Is this true? Will it be okay to do carboxytherapy after liposuction AND fat transfer?
