I am anticipating my sleeve surgery to be in the beginning of June. Do you think an August visit would be too soon? I don't want my stomach and incisions to be sore the whole time :/

I was told no swimming/immersion in Water until incisions are completely healed. Maybe mid-late August would be better than early August just in case.

My incisions only took about 3 weeks to fully heal over, so it just depends on your healing ability. Wait until they are thoroughly healed over before immersing them in Water. However, you can always contact your surgical team, and they should be able to tell you when it is ok. Have fun at the beach....wish I was going with......

My dr said wait one month...even when they are looking healed but microscopic germs can still seep in.
