Strenous excercise after breast and abdominal surgery
Thanks for your question and sounds like you are pleased with your results. I would reccomend you ask your plastic surgeon what type of activity he believes you can tolerate. It will depend on how you are healing and the type of surgery he/she did, in particular if you had any muscle repair and and if your implants are above or below your muscle. Good luck.

You can probably resume gentler exercise much sooner, but please talk to your surgeon as he or she will best know the specific surgery that was done.

Training after Mommy Makeover
Thank you for your question.

Activity after Augmentation Mastopexy and mini tummy tuck
I generally recommend no heavy lifting or strenuous activity for 4-6 weeks after BAM + mastopexy surgery. You need to give time for your incisions to heal. Please talk to your plastic surgeon about his/her recommendations
