Concerned about working out after neck/lower facelift. Advice? (photos)

You can return to light workouts about two weeks after your Mini Lift and neck lift, but nothing that requires any kind of straining, and nothing high impact. I’d recommend waiting 3 to 4 weeks before going back to weight lifting. At that point, you can’t undo your neck lift. If anything, strengthening your neck muscles could help your lift last longer. I hope this helps.

Thank you for your question and pictures.  Please follow the protocol of your surgeon to when you should work out. Typically I would suggest you can start light exercise after two weeks after surgery.  You can perform any weights and high intensity work outs at 3-4 weeks.  All The Best 

I recommend following up with your surgeon about their protocols for resuming exercise after your procedure. To improve your final results, we will often do a kybella and ultherapy about 4-6 weeks after neck and facelifts to get more of an outcome. See an expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Thank you for sharing your concerns
It is best to wait 3-4 weeks. For best neck result, a corset platysmoplasty and band transection are recommended. 
Good Luck

 In our practice, most patients are able to return to their normal daily activities at two weeks after a face and neck lift procedure. For patients like yourself who work out extensively, it's probably best to not have an extensive workout for at least a month after the procedure to  help prevent the platysma bands from returning. In addition, it might be a good idea to have Botox placed into the platysma bands before the surgery, and then undergo a transection of those bands at the time of the lower face and neck lift procedure.
