I know that squats are not recommended in the first couple of weeks, but how about doing overhead press and using a pull up bar for example? And how about using a stationary bike without sitting? Is it possible to do these things on the second week perhaps?
Answer: Working Out After BBL Thanks for your question. I advise my patients that they can begin returning to their exercise routines about 4-6 weeks after a BBL. I recommend discussing it with your plastic surgeon. Hope this helps. Please always consult with a board certified plastic surgeon. Take care, Dr. Moises Salama, board certified plastic surgeon.

Answer: Postoperative exercise Generally any type of exercise is restricted in the weeks after surgery. This is definitely something you should discuss with your surgeon as each surgeon has their own protocol/restrictions post BBL. In my practice, I allow my patients to return to light cardio activity after 3 weeks and no weight bearing exercises until 6 weeks post surgery.

Answer: When can I exercise after a BBL? I can give you the advice that I give my patients. I think exercise is wonderful before and after a BBL. I have a video exercise program with a very knowledgeable and well educated trainer explaining the exercises with a patient demonstrating them. The main issue is the sitting. So I tell my patients absolutely no sitting for the first two weeks after a BBL except to use the bathroom but otherwise they are free to exercise. The timing works out well because no one really feels like exercising for the first two weeks anyway. If you were well enough to exercise say at ten days then you could do that as long as it doesn't involve any sitting. I left a video link to the Ogee BBL exercise program.
