I had BA 8 weeks ago, silicone, under, inframammary incision. The incision on my right side feels firm and tender at the edge of it. Left breast has felt fine all along, but right is still a little sore and tight. They look the same (very happy with the result) but this tenderness by the incision is making me a little nervous. I don't see my PS again until 1/20/15. The incisions healed very well.

Hard to give the definitive on this one as some after breast augmentation will be out and about a day or two after the procedure and some a need a week. With rhinoplasty the splint will be on and swelling is such that you will need the whole week after to let things settle down before you will...
As long as you are healed and everything is functioning well, then there is usually no issue in these cases. Your surgeon may want to get clearance from your nephrologist prior to surgery.
I don't agree at all with such kind of draping, firstly because creates an environment of humidity with the leakage from wounds, prone to infections, secondly because the tight fixation in combination with the normal postoperative swelling may produce shearing forces that will peel of your skin...
