If I schedule to have a mommy makeover surgery in late November or any time in December, would I be able to attend a wedding in February?
Answer: Mommy Makeover Recovery Time Thank you for your question. Recovery time varies depending on which combination of procedures you have done for your mommy makeover but generally speaking, I typically recommend 4-6 weeks without any heavy lifting and exercise. Although final results and healing takes up to a year, patients are normally back to their regular activities and lifestyle after a month or two. So to answer your question, I think you should have no issue attending a wedding in February when having surgery in November/December. Hope this helps. Be sure to consult with a board certified plastic surgeon.

Answer: Recovery Time Hello! Yes, you should be able to attend a wedding in February if your surgery is performed in November/December but keep in mind you will still be swollen. Depending on the types of surgery you are thinking about, your breast might still be high (if you have implants), your abdomen still swollen (if you have a tummy tuck), etc. Also, choosing the right board-certified plastic surgeon is important as it can help reduce the risk of complications that can slow down the recovery.

Answer: Almost Definitely The typical downtime for breast and abdominal surgery should not be longer than about six weeks. After six weeks, all lifting and activity restrictions should be removed and you should be able to perform any activity that you like. However, it is likely that you will still have a significant amount of swelling for up to 3 months postoperatively. This edema may affect clothing and other choices when attending events during the time period following mommy makeover surgery.

Answer: Yes Normally we tell our patients the first 2 weeks of recovery should be you relaxing and taking it easy at home. After 2 weeks you should be fine to return to work. At 8 weeks you can start working out or going back to the gym. I would recommend to schedule your surgery 8-12 weeks before the wedding. That way you enough time to heal and feel comfortable attending the celebration.
