When can I start running again after my breast augmentation?

Thank you for your the work you do. Your services are much appreciated!
With regards to recovery, please know that it is a crucial
part of getting the best results, and it should not be rushed nor
underestimated. In fact, as a patient, you must diligently follow your
surgeon’s instructions and take good care of yourself to ensure your body has
sufficient time to heal and look its best.
Normally, it is recommended not to do heavy lifting of
greater than 5-10 lbs for the first 3 weeks, especially over the head. Other
surgeons may be stricter. For example, you may want to avoid sweating,
elevating your heart rate for the 1st two weeks as well.
After 2-3 weeks, you should be able to begin your light
exercise routine, such as brisk walking, cycling, aerobics and lower-body
weight training. Best to start with a simple walk.
You should take it slow and increase your activity level
gradually such that you are not putting strain on your body, and especially
your breasts. Increasing the activity level is dependent on your own perception
of how well you feel. Any minute you feel an activity is causing pressure or
causing you to feel stretch in your breasts, then you should stop that
activity. Point to note is that you want to avoid using your chest muscles
until at least 6 weeks.
In fact, any exercises that require pectoralis major
contraction or physical pressure in the upper-body as experienced during
push-up demonstrations, running, high impact aerobics, and weight lifting
should be avoided until after 6 weeks following your surgery. This is
especially true if your implants will be placed behind the pec major muscle.
During weight-lifting, best to start with lower weights and more repetitions.
Even when you return to high impact upper-body exercises, it
is important to support your breasts with snug fitting sports bra.
Please note that your final results will be revealed at
around 3-6 months, and as such, some surgeons may ask you to avoid heavy
exercising until 3 months/12 weeks.
As always, please call and discuss with your plastic
surgeon. Their instructions should take precedence as they are better informed
about your surgical details.
Hope this helps.

Thanks for the question. After 6 weeks your surgery area is totally healed and yes you can do running and also do other activities. I wish you all the best.

First of all, thanks for serving and congratulations on your surgery. I advise my patients that if they are comfortable they can return to running by the 21st day after breast augmentation surgery. Most of my patients are  comfortable starting  their “ups” again at about 6 weeks after surgery. It's always best to check with your surgeon as to his or her protocol. For more information on this and similar topics, I recommend a plastic surgery Q&A book like "The Scoop On Breasts: A Plastic Surgeon Busts the Myths." Good luck.
