tuckermapocker Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 I’d like to have face contouring as well as eyelid surgery in the summer before I start university. I would also like to go backpacking during the summer and am a little conflicted as to if I should travel first and then get surgery in August and risk not having fully recovered when school starts or do the surgery in May/June and then leave Korea after 3-4 weeks to travel around. Is it safe for me to travel (and thus walk a lot, carry either a bag or a suitcase all the time, etc.etc.) or would I be better to do my surgery after my trip? Thanks!

hawkeye99 Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 from what I know, you'll very swollen after facial contouring and should keep personal hygiene in order to escape any kind of infection but from the other side, walking helps to get rid of swelling... but if I were you, I'd rather proceed a surgery after travelling but at least a month before going to uni, since you gonna meet new ppl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

littleboots824 Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 I moved around fine 4 days after, was intensely swollen for 2 weeks, moderately swollen for 1 month, subtly swollen for 2 months and normal after 3 months. You can do light to moderate activity about 2 weeks, I walked around extensively schlepped luggage etc. I'm not sure about strenous exercise bc I was also recovering from breast aug too.
