Asked By:Ginger0210 in Middle East

Hi, I am planning on getting breast augmentation and moderate liposuction done in a month or so. Although doctors indicate that the recover will be a week to 10 days, a friend indicated to me that the recovery period is about a month where I will be in tremendous pain for nearly a month and will need assistance showering and going to the bathroom for at least 2 weeks; Is this true?
