Answer: Returning To Basketball Play After Gynecomastia Surgery This is something you need to discuss with your surgeon. For my patients, I want them to wait 4 to 6 weeks, depending on how they are healing, before resuming any type of formal exercise. Good luck!

Answer: Getting back to sports after gunecomastia surgery An important part of recovery, especially if liposuction is used, is to wear a compression vest. This will help control swelling and tenderness. Patients usually wear the vest 24-7 for about one month and then for the next month only 12 hours a day and while exercising. I typically have my patients wait between 3-6 weeks after surgery before engaging in sports, depending on how well they respond to compression.In order to get a qualified, ethical, and expert opinion on your surgical options and expectations, schedule an in-person office consultation with a plastic surgeon certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery.

Answer: Normally, patients are asked to wait 6 weeks Normally, patients are asked to wait 6 weeks before returning to unrestricted activity. This helps to prevent the inadvertent trauma or bleeding while the tissues are healing. Even though you may be cleared, we frequently see patients who have some discomfort at 6 weeks and thus they may need to continue to modify their activities until this resolves. This can vary from doctor to doctor and thus, your physician may have their own specific protocol.
