I play alot of netball and trying to determine if I will be playing this season post TT with lipo to flanks and inner and outer thighs. I note 6 weeks seems to be the average time frame for return to strength training but what about contact sport?

Answer: #Abdominoplasty recovery Hi. I tell my patients it is 6 weeks until you are back to normal activity. This includes heavy exercise and heavy lifting. Contact sports are included in this so the answer is 6 weeks. RegardsDamien

Answer: When are you able to play contact sports post TT? At 6 weeks post surgery you can slowly and gradually return to doing normal training and physical actvities. You will most likely still have a great deal of pain and discomfort when you start straining, so be guided by your body and how you are feeling. I advise my patients to avoid all contact sports for at least 3 months post surgery.

Answer: Contact sports? I tell my patients 3 months before contact sports or tennis. I suggest you ask your plastic surgeon specially if the plan is to tighten your abdominal muscles.Good luck, Dr. ALDO
