My mate had it done last summer, about 10 days off the bike then gentle riding complete with compression tight on - we never took the piss out of him!!
Full recovery was about 4 weeks, he's a tri-athlete so swimming took him the longest to get back to with incisions healing etc...

mrs antigee had a couple done - was running again in a fortnight - though it was painful at the time recovery was pretty fast
