Steven Wallach, MD answers: Best exercises after Tummy Tuck and Liposuction?

I had Tummy Tuck with Liposuction 6 weeks ago. What are the best exercises after these procedures?

At 6 weeks post-op, you probably can go back to the gym. I always tell my patients that they should be able to gauge what is tolerable a this point. Most will be uncomfortable to perform sit-ups. I would probably avoid that activity for about 8 weeks. Weight lifting, etc.. should be restarted slowly.
