I'm going into my first procedure ever. I love regular exercise of barre 4 days a week, been doing for 6 years.I'm hoping someone knows what it is.Because I really don't want to risk a single thing in regards to messing up my surgery and healing.I have no idea on how soon I can return to my normal routine.I really have never even taken more than a week or too off!What types of exercise is good to help while I'm healing?I work from home and break up my stressful day with fitness! HELP!

Answer: When to return to exercise after surgery I love Barre classes! Good for you for being so steadfast with it! So a lot of this has to do with where your implants are going to be placed. If the implants are going under the muscle, i don't have great news for you. Because the muscle really only covers the top 1/3 to 1/2 of your implant, when it squeezes, it will squeeze your implant down and out. Not where you want pretty breasts to be! For my dual plane (under muscle) patients, I restrict planks, push ups, bench press and any pectoralis muscle work for up to 1 year. If your implants are going on top of the muscle, no holds bar. As soon as your incisions are healed, I tell patients to use their own judgement and do what feels right. Same goes for liposuction. Usually you are back at it by 2-3 weeks gradually increasing activity.

Answer: Activity Most women can do light walking the first week of surgery. Usually by 6 weeks, you can return to full activities. Your surgeon will be the best one to tell you what activity you can do when as he/she will be checking you and seeing how well you are healing.
