How long should I have someone help me at home after abdominoplasty?
It's recommended to have a companion (spouse, partner, family member, friend, neighbor, etc.) stay with you for the initial 2 to 3 nights after surgery. This individual should be an adult who is physically capable of assisting you with tasks like going to the bathroom, bathing, managing drains, and helping you with pain medication.
