Hi I know you can't resume normal exercise activities until 6wks but how soon can I do cardio and bike exercises at the gym ?
Answer: Going back to the Gym after a Breast Augmentation Consult with your surgeon about the types of activities that are acceptable post-surgery. It is important that you not engage in strenuous activities in the first three (2-3) weeks after surgery. My own personal recommendations to my patients are start walking as much as you want to, as soon as you want to. Then progress as desired to high-reps, low-resistance exercises. Slowly progress for 6 weeks, after which time there are no restrictions. I advise my patients to refrain from strenuous physical activity such as heavy lifting with your arms or jogging for 6 weeks. Aerobic exercise will raise your blood pressure, which could cause late bleeding and harm your result. Once you begin exercising again, start gently and let your body tell you what it can tolerate. Don’t rush!! It is important that you follow your doctor's instructions so that you get the best aesthetic results. #breastrevision #breastimplants

CONTACT NOW Answer: Exercise after a breast augmentation Hi and thanks for your question. It is advised to refrain from any exercise or heavy lifting for 4-6 weeks post-operatively. Anything that may increase your heart rate, including cardio, lower or upper body, walking, bike riding, etc., can increase your risks of bleeding or potentially breaking sutures. It is important to follow the post surgical procedures that your surgeon recommends. After clearance, ease back into your normal routine. Hope this helps and congratulations on your recent surgery !

Answer: Exercise after breast augmentation Thank you for your question. It is always best to follow the advice of your surgeon. I typically allow patients to get back to mild exercise at week 4 and then no restrictions by week 6. Your surgeon may have different recommendations based on how you are doing and healing so best to follow his/her advice.

Answer: Exercise after BA I generally recommend that patients wait 3 weeks before beginning aerobic and lower body weight training. Every surgeon will have their own protocol, so check with yours first.
