I am scheduled for a mommy makeover 6/1/2017. Tummy tuck and breast augmentation , with lipo. I was just " gifted" a trip to Dominican Republic by my older sister only 2 1/2 weeks post op of my surgery :/. She did not know i was getting the surgery .. ( I was keeping it a secret ). Is it safe to go ? I really don't want to miss the opportunity to go

Answer: Vacation after a mommy makeover Hello and thank you for your question! This comes up often. This will be a great discussion for you and your surgeon to have prior to your mommy makeover. Typically, you should be able to travel at 3 weeks post-op. I would recommend wearing your compression stockings during your flight, you will also be very limited in your activities. Your surgeon will likely recommend no water activities for at least 6 weeks post-op. You will need to remember your medication and your sunscreen over your incisions and hopefully make the best of your gifted trip! Best of luck to you and safe travels!
