I ran anywhere from 3 to 13 miles quite regularly or do about 30 minutes minimum on my elliptical when I can't get go running. I foresee getting a BL with BA 400 silicone around end November early December. How soon after can I resume these activities. Are these two forms of exercise "safe" for someone after this surgery long term? Thanks
Answer: Exercise After Breast Lift The challenge of doing breast lifts with implants is to keep the implant up high. Dropping of the implant and breast tissue can occur too soon in my experience, so I try and get patients to limit impact type exercises for 3 months or so. That indcludes running, boot camp, etc. Stairmaster, elliptical, treadmill and spin are all low impact and may be good substitutes while you heal.

Answer: Cardio Exercise Following your Procedures In regards to #cardio workouts, its best you do not begin light aerobic #exercise for 3 weeks and strenuous exercise for at least 6 weeks, following your #BreastSurgery. Let your body tell you what it can tolerate. You make take gentle walks within a few days following your #surgery. Light #activity may be started 7-10 days after surgery. If your work keeps you sedentary, you may return whenever you feel up to it. If your work is strenuous, wait until your work activity does not cause any superficial pain.It is always recommended to call and see your surgeon to discuss your #healing concerns.

Answer: 4 weeks I would speak with your surgeon since everyone has his or her own post-op protocol, but I advise my patients to wait at least 4 weeks before returning to vigorous exercise. Best, Dr. Nazarian

Answer: Running after breast augmentation Thank you for your question. You definitely want to follow your own surgeon's post-op activity instructions. This is a general guide I give to my patients: 1) No heavy lifting or strenuous activity for 6 weeks. 2) Resume walking at a leisurely pace right after surgery (e.g. 2 mph) 3) At 2 weeks, you can walk 2 miles at 2mph 4) At 3 weeks, you can walk 3 miles at 3mph 5) At 4 weeks, you can walk 4 miles at 4mph 6) At 5 weeks, you can jog 5 miles at 5mph 7) At 6 weeks, you can resume all activities, but listen to your body and use discomfort or tightness as a guide so you don't over do it.

Answer: Return to Activity following Breast Augmentation Most patients bounce back fairly quickly following a breast augmentation; patients require 3-5 days off work to recover, however 2-3 weeks of downtime may be needed for patients who have physically strenuous jobs. Pain and soreness should be well controlled with prescribed pain medications and usually dissipates within the first few days; after the first few days, pain and soreness can usually be relieved by over the counter medications. I typically permit my patients to get back to their activities of daily living but do not release them back to strenuous activities until 4-6 weeks following surgery. Exerting yourself too much too soon following surgery can extend the length of your recovery and increase your risk for complications. In my practice, the most common complication for patients who do too much too soon following surgery is wound dehiscence; this occurs when the incisions are put under too much strain and break open. When this happens, a patient develops a higher risk of infection and could need additional surgeries to get the wound closed. I know it can be extremely difficult for active patients to take a few weeks off, but it is necessary. It is very important to follow your plastic surgeon's post operative instructions. Best of luck!
