I am 4 weeks post op and I really want do sit ups and squats to maximize my results although my stomach is still swollen. When can I work out ( squats and lunges and sit-ups and crunches) after bbl? I really wanna start ASAP but I'm scared it'll cause my fat cells to shrink! I just started sitting on my bum

Answer: Exercise after BBL Thank you for your question. Recovery varies from patient to patient, i normaly tell my patients that they can return to light activities almost immediately after surgery, normal activities 2 weeks after surgery, and vigorous exercise 4 weeks after surgery. We usually experience a slow steady improvement for 3 months or so after surgery. You should speak to your plastic surgeon directly to get the best informed response. Good luck!

Answer: BBL Hello dear, thanks for your post. In general, I would conservatively wait two weeks to resume exercise after any surgical procedure including liposuction as a safety measure to minimize any risk of bleeding postoperatively. Adding fat transfer to the buttock (Brazilian butt lift) to the procedures would not lengthen this time of you being unable to exercise. I have found it very helpful (and motivating) for patients to get back into the gym at 2 weeks. I tell them they may not yet be "100 percent" but to listen to their bodies in terms of energy level, fatigue, etc. Most patients that undergo body contouring procedures really want to maximize the difference in their appearance and exercise is very important. At one month after the procedure, you can go full steam ahead with all of those activities. The two other things post liposuction that are very important in my opinion are adequate post compression garments and post lymphatic massages to the areas. Good luck :)
