I'm having a mini tummy tuck and lipo on my abdomen. How soon can I return work? I am a massage therapist. 'm giving myself 2 weeks is that enough time?
Answer: Return to normal activities In my opinion if you are having something minor and conservative definitely you would be able to come back to work in two weeks. If the procedure includes a muscle repair, lipo to other additional areas and fat grafting to your butt. Then I would encourage you to take one more week off. Be encouraged. Dr. Cardenas

Answer: Tummy Tuck Thanks for the question. It’s too early to comment over the result. First couple of days after the surgery you can back to work and couple of weeks later your permanent recovery will start. It’s possible to see some major changes in Tummy Tuck results till the end of 12 months recovery. I wish you all the best

Answer: Time off after mini-tuck and lipo I recommend a week off after liposuction of the abdomen. A tummy tuck, even a mini-tuck, should require a longer recuperation period. I would also hope that you have truly ascertained that this is the right operation for you and that you do not need tightening above the umbilicus. By my estimate, close to 90 percent of patients do need more than the mini-tuck.
