In this video, we cover when you can drive again post nipple reduction surgery.

Initially, we advise you rest on the day of your surgery and get a friend or relative to drive you around. We also think that a few days taking it easy will accelerate your recovery period immensely, so you should avoid anything strenuous for at least 3 days. After this you should be fit enough again to drive, but it will be down to how you actually feel. The seatbelt shouldn’t cause any problems, as it should pass in between the tender areas which are your nipples.
