I just found out I was approved from Breast Reduction surgery, the date is June 12th, I have vac June 17. will I be okay to go?

Thanks for the question. You should be able to flying by 1-2 weeks after your surgery. If your doctor say everything's fine, yes, you can go. If any unexpected incident happens in your treatment process, this time can be extended or shortened. I wish you all the best.

Generally one to two weeks is required for recovery.  You do not want to do anything strenuous or that requires you to bend or stretch.  The board certified plastic surgeon (BCPS) who performs your surgery is the best one to recommend your period of recovery. I would recommend that you postpone the surgery until after the vacation.Kenneth Hughes, MD, Board Certified Plastic SurgeonLos Angeles, CA

It is not a good idea to go on vacation right after you have had surgery.   You re probably best delaying the trip for 3-6 weeks. Best of luck.

Congratulations on your decision to proceed with breast reduction surgery; this operation tends to be one of the most patient pleasing operations we perform. Your plastic surgeon will be your best resource when it comes to specific advice but in my practice, I would likely advise you against having  elective breast surgery five days before vacation. Remember that your plastic surgeon will want to see you for follow-up  and that, even under the best circumstances, many patients do not feel  up to traveling five days after surgery. My best advice: postpone either your breast reduction procedure or your vacation.Best wishes for an outcome that you will be very pleased with.
