Always ask your plastic surgeon about specific activities and when they can be resumed after surgery. After six weeks of uncomplicated healing, you should be able to resume your exercise program. I would take it easy initially to not overdo the very intense bouts of exercise. I liken twerking to squats and lunges in the gym. You will increase muscle bulk and definition, which is probably a good thing if you are looking to achieve a more projected, lifted buttock.

Great question! One rule of thumb I use with all my patients regardless of their procedure is to listen to their body. If it hurts then don't do it. When it doesn't hurt then it's probably OK.
I tell my patients to wait about 6 weeks before they do anything strenuous. I have never twerked but it looks pretty strenuous to me. So I would recommend waiting about 6 weeks. Of course, follow the instructions of your Board Certified Plastic Surgeon.I hope this helps!Good luck and happy twerking! :)
That is a pretty funny question and deserves a funny answer. I would start slowly and begin with a more geriatric pace and work your way up..... In all seriousness, I would not do anything that tweaks your gluteus maximus for at least 6 weeks.
Hello and thank you for your excellent question. Certainly, one of the advantages of a BBL is that you can get a "new and improved twerking booty!" LOL But in all seriousness, we reocmmend that you refrain from sitting directly on your buttocks for 2 weeks, and refrain from cardio for 3 weeks. So, you can likely resume twerking (albeit at a reduced effort / intensity) at 3 weeks). Of course, you will need an in-person consultation toevaluate you for this procedure. Preoperative visualization and surgicalsimulation with the Crisalix system may help with your decision. I suggest thatyou find a board-certified plastic surgeon with whom you are comfortable. Besure to have all of your questions answered during a face-to-face meeting withyour surgeon, and review before and after pictures of patients who have hadsimilar procedures. Good luck!Best,Jon Ver Halen, MD FACSHarvard educated plastic surgeonTexas “Top Doc”
Sitting should be avoided or at least done very briefly and only when it is necessary. Take note that it will take three weeks for the fat grafts to form their new blood supply and the extra-cellular matrix holding them together with the rest of the tissue to become strong enough to tol...
Hello and thank you for your excellent question. First, the goal of diode therapy is to tighten the skin, and reduce fat. If you assume that the technology actually works, it would be wise to refrain from using it after your BBL. Second, you should check with your surgeon, as he or she may think...
Thank you for your question. You are too early to judge on the final result. The area in your lower back will be still bruised and swollen and this will take 8-12 weeks for the swollen to go down. Wear your garment and keep your follow up with your surgeon. Give your body at least...
