Answer: Privacy after surgery Hello @OCblonde, thank you for your question. Undergoing plastic surgery is something very private and personal. However, the postoperative care of an abdominoplasty is very important and requires the help of either your family or in case you live alone an attendant or nurse, especially during the first few days. One option is to spend the postoperative period in a hotel informing a person about the procedure and hiring a nurse for the first few days. For more information and recommendations, it is best to consult with one or several board certified plastic surgeons. Best wishes! Alan Gonzalez MD, FACS.

Answer: Tummy tuck I'm not sure you will be able to keep private from your family that you've had surgery. The first few days after a tummy tuck you will sore and not very active. You may need a little assistance as well. You can choose to not let your family know what type of surgery you had, but unless you stay somewhere else for a couple of weeks you likely won't be able to completely keep that you've had a surgery a secret.

Answer: Tummy tuck It’s not going to be easy to do and by hipaa law your surgeon can’t tell anybody that you don’t allow. Obviously going to need to get creative like recover at a friends house. It’s generally something your surgeon will do to satisfy your wishes but don’t expect the surgeon to figure out how to do it for you.
