🏋Exercise After Plastic Surgery

One of the most important aspects to a patient’s recovery is their ability to return to their workout routines in a manner that is safe and will not jeopardize their results. Patients generally feel better physically and mentally when they’re able to exercise, and when recovering from certain body contouring procedures, a customized workout regimen can dramatically improve results. While every patient is different and every workout program has to be customized to his or her fitness levels and overall health, some basic guidelines may apply to an average patient’s recovery.

The First Few Days After Surgery

Patients should not be overly active for the first 48 hours following their surgery.

The First Few Weeks After Surgery

Patients may gradually increase their activity level as they feel their energy level coming back. Depending on the type of surgery, it may take 1 - 2 weeks to return to normal energy levels throughout the day as their body heals and recovers from the stress of surgery. For those who are anxious to return to exercise, light cardio activities like walking the neighborhood, walking on a very slow setting on a treadmill, or cycling slowly on a stationary bike are recommended after 2 weeks. The goal is to not elevate the heart rate too high, while still experiencing the psychological effects of exercise.

As patients return to their normal energy levels, a specific exercise regimen will be outlined based on the procedure and fitness level.
