Answer: Core exercising after tummy tuck Thank you for your pictures. I do not exactly what waist training would be but is sounds like you would use your abdominal muscles. I would wait 8 weeks after surgery to start vigorous core exercise

Answer: Tummy Tuck and Exercise Hello. Thank you for your question and pictures…and congratulations on your upcoming TT. I have my patients wait 6 weeks before they can do any type of exercise. If you do it too early, you can tear the stitches. I also have my patients wear a binder for the duration of the 6 weeks. I would make sure you address this question with your surgeon. Best of Luck to you!
