Traveling question

For those who have had a tummy tuck and lipo done.  As I've posted before, I'm having my procedure on July 9th.  I would love to be able to go to Cancun for my anniversary mid - October.  Do you feel that I would be healed well enough to travel out of the US by that time.  We'd be staying in a 5 star resort (I know their star rates are not the same as in the US, but still, that is good for Mexico).

I had a tummy tuck and lipo of the side flanks performed by Nathan Miller with Cosmetic Surgery Affiliates in Oklahoma City on June 23rd, 2009.

OH YEAH! I know you willl... book and ENJOY!  Be sure to use HIGH level sunscreen and keep incisions covered tho or it can cause worse overall scarring.
Hugs, Melissa

I'm 15 weeks out and would have been more than able to do that 2 weeks ago. I also had a baseball size hernia repair along with my extended TT, muscle repair and lipo. The hernia repair was the hardest part, but even then, I would have been OK. Have a great time!!

At 2 months out I feel I could travel anywhere internationally (except for being tired but that because low iron). I would definately go - just stay out of the sun (scars+sun=bad) !!!!!
