Tummy Tuck Surgery Recovery. Like any surgical procedure there is a general time frame but individual recoveries are based on a variety of factors including the following. Looking back on my journey i did underestimate my recovery time it was major surgery.
My one piece of advice for anyone who is considering a tummy tuck would be to make sure you have a good dependable support system for postoperative care of yourself or any children for several weeks following your procedures. An inability to stand fully upright for a couple of days or weeks pain and bruising for a few weeks.
