PS over the holidays

Very excited to have scheduled a lower bleph on December 19! My office closes Christmas-New Years, so I was eager to fold that free time into my recovery.

Realistically, how much can you do during recovery? I will be with family and friends in their homes, so I’m not especially concerned about appearance issues like bruising or stitches. I have scheduled complete “downtime” for the first four days, but what about after that?

For example, day five is a day that I’d typically have friends over at my home, so I’d be doing some very light tidying and food prep. I’m curious about energy levels and diet too. How did everyone recover in these areas?

Of course I plan to follow my doctor’s recommendations, but curious on others’ experience! Thanks in advance!
