You should be able to climb steps right after surgery. Exercise should wait at least six weeks after surgery. Please check this information with your plastic surgeon.
I usually have my patients refrain from any strenuous exercise for 6 weeks or so. There is some variability with healing. Select an expert at BBLs and ask his or her advice.Kenneth Hughes, MDLos Angeles, CA
Hello dear!!Thanks for the question and provided information as well. I recommend my patients to wait at least 4 weeks before resuming their workout routine (cardio, lift, etc.). If you have any concerns, I suggest you follow up close with your plastic surgeon.Hope this is helpful. Good luck :)
It is best to wait for exercise like the stair climber until about six weeks after your BBL procedure. Plastic surgeons have differing recommendations regarding when to begin strenuous exercise, so I advise adhering to your operating doctor's advice.

Each surgeon has their own preference, as far as climbing stairs, I suggest doing squats or lunges or both to keep you toned but burn less calories instead. A wait period of about 3-4 weeks should be sufficient for you to start working out after surgery!Thank you for your question!
