I’m booked in for surgery in April. I’m aware 6 weeks is the time I should take off from exercising. I exercise around x5 times weekly doing high impact such as Metafit & circuits & a lot of weights / doing press ups etc Am I ok to to go back to it after my 6 weeks? Are there by restrictions? Thanks in advance

Answer: Returning to exercise At six weeks patients are typically cleared to resume regular exercise routines. Leading up to this time you can begin lighter activities such as walking and light weights. I encourage you to discuss the details with your surgeon as he/she is most familiar with your surgical plan. Good luck with surgery!

Answer: Exercise Thank you for your question. Although post operative instructions do vary from one plastic surgeon to another, I advise my patients to wait a full month before returning to regular exercise routines. Best to follow the specific instructions given to you by your plastic surgeon. Good luck.
