travelling after surgery

how soon is the earliest it is safe to fly after surgery?
is it safe to go in a sauna for 5-10 minutes?

Normally, we feel it's safe to fly one week after breast augmentation surgery. For longer and more extensive surgeries, it may be longer.

thanks Doc, what about Saunas? are they okay for brief use, 5 days later?
