I wanted to know how much time you need to recover from a breast lift with silicone implants under the muscle and thigh lipo.  I have a small window of time this summer to do this before school starts and wanted to schedule my time off now.....any advise? 

Also, for anyone who just had lipo on the things, does it make a difference and whats the down time?  Thanks.

Don't know about the thighs and lipo, but I had a BL/BA 3 1/2 weeks ago.  I took 3 weeks off but could have gone back after 2.  I'm still sore at times, but I have some internal scar tissue giving me fits.   I also had the saline implants under the muscle.  And my implants haven't settled yet, which doesn't really bother me pain wise....

Good luck!

Thank you so much...really helps.  I am planning on silicone under the muscle.  What do you mean by internal scar tissue issues....does it hurts.

I had a MTL and BA/BL and was out of work for 10 days. I was fine but if I had the opportunity to take a few more days I would have just becasue my thighs were very tender and walking and geting into my car wasn't the easiest (I have an SUV). By 3 weeks out I was living life like normal, going out w/ friends even to a nightclub.
