I am 2 week post op BBL surgery. Can I start doing light cardio workout?

Greetings,

The recovery period for a Brazilian butt lift is about 10-14 days.



So yes, walk and stretch your legs. You need to move, this will help  decrease the risk of developing clots. Do buttock stretching exercises. This will help you recover faster. The injected fat cells flourish with the extra blood supply that is provided by exercise of the gluteal musculature. Healthy buttocks muscles help maintain volume and lift the buttocks further enhancing the result. In addition regular exercise keeps the patient in good overall shape and prevents recurrence of excess body fat around the waist and trunk. 



Have a great day!

I appreciate your question.



I would recommend that you discuss this question with your surgeon as every surgeon has their own respective post op protocol for his/her patients.  Your surgeon is your best resource as he/she is most familiar with your medical history and how you are healing at this time.



The best way to assess and give true advice would be an in-person exam.



Please see a board-certified plastic surgeon that specializes in aesthetic and restorative plastic surgery.



Best of luck!
