After tummy tuck how long the wait before exercise or walking treadmill?

Ultimately, you should only follow your surgeon's instructions, but I typically like my patients to move cautiously around the house the very next day to avoid blood clots.  That doesn't mean exercising or elevating your heart rate.  Most patients can do easy walking around 2-3 weeks and more strenuous activity at around 6-8 weeks, all depending on how they are healing with my approval.  Everyone is different so that is why I recommend you talk with your surgeon and follow her/his post-op instructions carefully.  Last thing you would want to do is push yourself too quickly and undo all the work that has been done and lengthen your recovery time.  ac

I allow my patients to walk within a few days after surgery but exercise level activity should wait for at least 4 weeks so as not to strain the muscle repair.
