Just wanted to know how long do you have to wait before getting on a plane after weight loss surgery?

Becareful for blood clots, after my first surgery I had to wait 2 wks.

Thank you its been a month.

In that case travel along.

People that have surgery in Mexico fly home just a few days post-op. And it's the same for people that have plastics in Mexico and Brazil they fly home and have their pc remove stitches etc.

I waited a week after surgery before going home. There were people that were operated on the same day as I was on a Thursday and they flew out the following Monday after the doctor's follow up. That wasn't for me...I'm more of an "error on the side of caution" type of person.

Flying one week after surgery was no issue for me - the only thing I wasn't able to do was pick up my computer bag or luggage.
