How soon can I exercise after Blepharoplasty?

With almost any eyelid surgery, including blepharoplasty, the patient can return to normal activities, including exercising within 7-10 days.  During the initial 7-10 days, there is a painless black eye. The eyes are open and the person can see.

I would recommend that you contact your surgeon to ask when you can resume regular exercise again after your blepharoplasty.  Your surgeon has the most information about your particular procedure and it is best to follow his or her advice.  In general, with a routine blepharoplasty procedure, I would say that it would be fine to resume regular exercise two weeks after the procedure.  You should still see what your surgeon recommends though.   

Dear Mizuno,
This answer differs with every surgeon’s opinion. In general, in our practice with every operation we recommend no cardio or weight lifting until at least two weeks after surgery. The biggest risk is to have the blood pressure go up and have a postoperative bleed. Usually if this is going to happen, it is within the first week, but I like to make a rule of two weeks to be sure since that is such an easily avoided problem.
I hope this has been helpful to you.
