When can I exercise after arm lift?

                  The
results of brachioplasty are best when combined with life style changes. These
changes may involve both diet and exercise. The benefits of exercise may occur
both pre-operatively and post-operatively. In the post-operative period, it’s
important to have adequate healing before starting a workout routine. For this
reason, strenuous exercise should be avoided for 6 to 8 weeks following
surgery.

                  When
brachioplasty is combined with exercises that are designed to improve muscle
tone, results can be excellent. It’s important to discuss exercise routines
with your surgeon before getting started. Your surgeon will be able to help you
formulate an exercise routine that will help maximize your result. 

A patient can resume most activities in 3 - 4 weeks without any problems after having armlift surgery.
