I had a tummy tuck 4 weeks ago. When can I resume taking Saxenda?

Hi, I stopped taking Saxenda a few weeks before my tummy tuck. I never thought to tell my surgeon I was on it, just seemed logical to stop before surgery. I realize now this was unfounded. I use it very successfully as an appetite suppressant. When can I resume taking injections, and should I still inject in my abdomen? I assume it would follow guidance given to a diabetic using Victoza if they were to have a Tummy tuck, but I can’t locate any information on that either. Thanks for any help!
