Even though undergoing surgery is a momentous time in one\u2019s life, no one has time to completely stop everything; i.e. work, travel, being a parent, etc. For most, it can be difficult to find the right time to schedule rhinoplasty in Pittsburgh<\/a> since there is social and some physical downtime involved.<\/p>\n

\"SistineA common question that many patients in Pittsburgh ask is when can they plan a trip or vacation after their rhinoplasty. Although much of this information is based off the complexity of the surgery, Dr. Leong<\/a> typically advises his patients that they are cleared to travel anywhere from 8 to 14 days post-surgery. Scheduled trips should have little to no effect on the patient\u2019s healing process unless injury to the nose itself occurs.\u00a0 When Dr. Leong\u2019s patient travel from out of town for Rhinoplasty surgery, similar advice is given.\u00a0 If at all possible, Dr. Leong prefers these patients to remain in town for around eight days.\u00a0 Typically, at six to seven days, the cast on top of the nose and the stents inside the nose are removed.\u00a0 After this point, the patient is free to travel home.\u00a0\"Sistine<\/p>\n

Patients can slowly start returning to normal activity about one week after surgery and after their cast is removed with the exception of exercise. Generally, exercise is not recommended until about 4 weeks post rhinoplasty surgery, however, it is still important for patients to listen to their body and suspend anything that doesn\u2019t feel right.<\/p>\n
