Is it safe to workout 6 weeks post breast augmentation?

Thank you for your question.   This is a very common one.  Your plastic surgeon is going to have his/her own protocol and best knows when it is a good time for you to start increasing your activity.   Even when you first start with excercise, it will take some time again for you to reach the level that you were before surgery since you have not worked out for some time.    In my practice, we start with activity at around 6 weeks.   Please contact your plastic surgeon.  Best of luck.  

Thank you for your question. I would recommend that you discuss this question with your surgeon. Every surgeon has their own specific post op protocol for their patients and your surgeon is the best resource when questions arise. They are most familiar with your medical history, details of your surgery, and how you are healing. In my office, there are no restrictions after six weeks. My patients return to gentle cardio at two weeks, full cardiovascular exercise at four weeks, and full unrestricted exercise (including chest exercises) at six weeks. Congratulations on your recent surgery.

This is a question that is likely best answered by your plastic surgeon.  The reason is most plastic surgeon have their own recipe for postoperative care.I generally allow my patients to slowly increase their activity after 2 weeks and allow them to return to the gym with full workouts after 4 weeks.  I generally recommend to my patients to refrain from isolated pec muscle exercises.Hope the helps.

and you should start doing as you please.  My patients are only restricted for 3 weeks and have only had one hematoma from extreme activity in my 25+ year career.
