You can return to work 7-10 days after the operation. For people with heavy work, the restriction lasts until the 3rd week after the surgery. It is important for those who return to work after the 7th day to avoid movements that compress the abdominal wall. Daily activities will reduce the risk of embolism. Laparoscopic gastric reduction surgery allows patients to return to their daily lives quickly thanks to the closed method, and enclosed surgical operations, small incisions of about half an inch are found on the skin and these incisions, which are hidden sutures, heal completely after a week. The suture of the shrinking stomach will heal completely in about ten days. So patients are at risk of leakage for about ten days and they should be very careful. For this reason, you should be careful not to lift heavy activities and not to eat solid foods for the first ten days. If the patient who underwent surgery does not work in a heavy work done with muscle strength, they can start working after a week.
