    I didn’t, but to be honest that was more because I felt that rough I didn’t fancy it, I’m sure a couple won’t hurt as long as you aren’t going out on a real bender! Ha ha x

    As you already know it’s not advisable till you are 2 weeks post-op but if you have finished your antibiotics and just have one or two you should be ok, but please bear in mind that alcohol increases swelling, thins the blood and dries out your skin xx
