Exercising after surgery
The answer to your question will depend on how hard you work out, so you should definitely have a detailed discussion with your plastic surgeon about this. In general, I advise my patients to wait 4 weeks after breast augmentation before doing aerobic exercise and at least 6 weeks before doing any kind of weight lifting. Start off slowly in the beginning and gradually increase your activity level. Better to be safe than sorry. Good luck!

Exercising After Breast Augmentation
Most can resume exercise in 2-3 weeks. Until then, one should not increase their heart rate above 100.

Return to Exercise after Breast Enhancement
You are only 10 days after you're surgery. I don't recommend exercising after breast augmentation for 2 weeks. I would check with your plastic surgeon, but probably walking at this point would be fine. I would definitely not do weights yet.

Exercising after Breast Augmentation/Lifting?
Thank you for the question.
My best suggestion is to check with your plastic surgeon regarding specific activities after surgery. He/she is ultimately responsible for your care and is the best resource for you, given that he/she knows exactly what was done and how you are progressing in your recovery.
Best wishes.

Excercising after surgery
I always tell my patients that we must take everything slowly, one a step at a time, and give them the outside limits of 6 weeks. I see my patients frequently during the postop period, and like to wait until each visit to see how the patient is healing, before giving a definitive time for exercise etc. Often I will allow a return to certain activity depending on the healing.

Exercise after surgery
In general, I have patients wait about 3-4 weeks to start aerobic activity after a breast augmentation and 6-8 weeks for heavy lifting.

Exercise after Breast Augmentation
You are only 10 days after your surgery. I advise no heaving lifting or strenuous activity (ie working out/exercise) for 3-4 weeks after your breast augmentation. You need to give time for everything to heal. Please talk to your PS about his/her specific postoperative care/recommendations.

When To Exercise After Breast Augmentation
Hello,
Usually, resuming light exercise after your surgery depends on the level of progress you achieve before you start exercising again.
In general, patients can resume light exercising after 6-8 weeks post surgery given a good recovery process.
Nonetheless, your surgeon is the only person who knows the details of your surgery and is the one who can advise the best in that matter.
Best of wishes to you and thank you for your inquiry.
