Can I perform butt workouts a week after breast fat transfer?

Question

So my question is regarding being able to perform butt workouts a week after I had a fat transfer to my breasts done. Between the doctor having taken fat from around my Butt, to this compression garment constricting my Butt, it's getting flat. If I make sure not to get my heart rate up, can I do this without adversely affecting my fat transfer ?

hello nynatural   It is important that you not engage in strenuous activities in the first three (2-3) weeks after surgery. Aerobic exercise will raise your blood pressure, which could cause late bleeding and harm your result. If your job keeps you sedentary, you may return to work when you feel comfortable, several days after surgery. Once you begin exercising again, start gently and let your body tell you what it can tolerate. Don’t rush!! #flat #post-op

Connie Hiers, MD, FACS · Answer

You should avoid strenuous exercise up to one month. I would suggest contacting your surgeon and asking about specific exercises that you wish to do.

Erika Sato, MD, FACS · Answer

I recommend to my patients to refrain from strenuous activity for 4 weeks after the procedure.

Good Morning, 
It is best to avoid raising your heart rate or heavy lifting for around 4 weeks after surgery, though this can differ from office to office.  Raising your heart rate will raise your swelling and make your body work harder to find a blood supply for the fat that was grafted.  Always check in and follow the directions of you surgeon and best of luck!
