I am traveling soon after surgery or a procedure, and I am worried about when I can board a plane.

Recommended waiting periods by field (48 hours for simple fillers and Botox; 1–2 weeks for rhinoplasty; at least 4 weeks recommended for breast, abdominal, and liposuction; 1 week for implants and tooth extraction). Ophthalmic surgeries, such as vitrectomy, are strictly prohibited if gas remains. To prevent blood clots and edema, wear compression stockings, stay hydrated, and engage in light walking; please be sure to consult with your doctor.
