Was your first fill at 4 or 6 weeks?

I could have sworn my surgeon said she does the first fill 4 weeks after surgery, but I don't recall reading any posts where fills were done that early. I recall mostly reading the first fill was done 6 weeks after surgery or later.

Are there any LBTers whose surgeon did their first fill at 4 weeks post-op? If so, was there any rationale given for the earlier fill schedule?

6 weeks and every month up until my last fill. I have enough restriction that my doc has put me out to 2 months. I have had 4 to date.

I had surgery on 6/20/06 and have not had a fill yet.

If I was ready for one, I could have gotten one at 6 weeks out.
