How long is the recovery period for a tummy tuck?
You will need to take 10-14 days off of work. Dr. Lamb will discuss your job with you & tell you how much time you can expect to be off work. During your recovery time, you will need to stay relaxed. After the first week, you will be feeling good & may think it’s a good time for a home project. This is not the time to clean out closets or re-arrange furniture. You can walk around your home to do daily tasks for yourself, but do not start any major projects. Also, do not climb steps more than twice a day for the first few weeks.
