How long does it usually take to recover from cervical cancer surgery?

6-8 weeks: If you've had surgery involving an open incision, or laparotomy, it will take 6-8 weeks to heal. If your surgery was laparoscopic or if you had a cone biopsy your recovery will probably be quicker.

Cervical cancer: It depends on the type of surgery. For invasive cervical cancer, it takes 6 weeks to fully recover from an open or robotic radical hysterectomy or radical trachelectomy.
