How Soon Can You Engage In Intimate Activities After Plastic Surgery?

The truth is, there’s no straightforward answer to that question. After all, a lot of factors can affect your recovery.

First, you have your body’s comfort level. Second, your body’s capacity to heal. And finally, the procedure you underwent.

Here are some general guidelines on when you can resume sexy times depending on your surgery:

Liposuction

Liposuction uses tiny incisions to eliminate fat, so they’re not extremely invasive. Because of this, you can resume sexual activities at least two to three weeks after the procedure.

Tummy Tuck

Generally, recovery for a tummy tuck is three to six weeks. Discuss your recovery progress with your surgeon to know for sure when you’re allowed to engage in various activities.

Breast Augmentation and Breast Lift

You should refrain from sexual activities for at least two to six weeks after the procedure. As much as possible, you and your partner should avoid manipulation or movement of the breasts.

Rhinoplasty

Although it seems unlikely that your face is going to be affected during intimate moments, any physical activity that puts strain on your body is risky.

As for rhinoplasty, you need around six to eight weeks before the your nasal trauma is fully healed.

Facelift

Because there’s a risk of elevated blood pressure and bleeding on the surgical area, it is recommended that you avoid sexual activities for two to three weeks.

Remember: The indicated recovery periods of these surgical procedures only serve as guides. To be on the safe side, follow the specific instructions of your plastic surgeon.
