How soon after Mommy Makeover would the average person be ready for a vacation travel?

Thanks for the question.  Generally, most patients can fly within 2-4 weeks after mommy makeover operation. I wish you all the best.

Most patients are good to #travel 4 weeks after a #MommyMakeover. You should ask your plastic surgeon for specific advice per your procedure. Additionally, I would suggest you wear #TED #hose and also make a point to move about on the aircraft when feasible to prevent DVT.

A mommy makeover is a great procedure that addresses the
changes that arise as a result of pregnancy.
It can include breast surgery and body contouring to correct the sagging
skin and excess fat of the abdomen and hips and thighs. These are all combined in a single surgery
and only one recovery which is great convenience in this crazy busy
society. The only pit fall is hat
recuperation from a bigger procedure is always a little longer than if each
component were done separately. Typically for a mommy makeover you would be
restricted from any strenuous activity for 4-6 weeks and out of the pool or
ocean for at least 6 weeks (until all incisions are completely sealed up and
all stitches are out.) When planning surgery around an important vacation I
would recommend at least 6-8 weeks between surgery and departure date just to
give a little buffer in case there was some little glitch in your healing. You would hate to have a healing problem keep
you out of the pool or persistent pain make you unable to enjoy your favorite
sports. Plan ahead and avoid any extra
drama or disappointment!

Thanks for your question.  This will vary greatly on what you have done. If you have a standard abdominoplasty and breast augmentation, I would recommend you wait 6-8 weeks before snow skiing. If you are just going to be lounging and slow walking, 3-4 weeks is probably reasonable as long as you don't plan on lifting heavy objects or getting your heart rate too high.  Once all of your incisions are healed, your drains are out and the drain sites are healed, you can get into a pool.  This varies greatly from one patient to another so I would advise you to ask your plastic surgeon what you can specifically do at what time.  Best wishes. 

If possible I would recommend a 3 month time before extensive travel after a mommy makeover. You will be feeling fairly normal by that time and can gentle lift luggage that does not weigh much (but try to have someone do that for you).In my practice swimming in chlorinated pools ok at 3-6 weeks as in the past we have used chlorinated solutions to clean wounds and snow skiing ???? I would say 6 months. Ask your PS about your particular trip.
