How Long Will My Recovery Be?

The recovery period after surgery is aprocess. It can take afull 12-18 months before you are completely healed. Initially most people return to work within 1-2 weeks depending on the procedure. Most people can resume "normal" activities in 4-6 weeks.

Normal activities include:

*Lifting over 25 pounds
*Exercising
*Lifting weights
*Sexual intercourse


At 6 months post-surgery your scars are as strong as they are going to be. If there are concerns about your scar, your surgeon can discuss treatment options based on your own unique situation.
