Can I hike 19 days after Brazilian Butt Lift?

I appreciate your question.

I would recommend speaking to your plastic surgeon.  He/she is most familiar with your medical history and should have a detailed post op instruction sheet for you to follow.



The best way to assess and give
true advice would be an in-person exam.

Please see a board-certified
plastic surgeon that specializes in aesthetic and restorative plastic surgery.

Best of luck!

Dear Ms. Athenalex,Thank you for your questions.Bottom line: talk with your Plastic Surgeon.BBL the amount of liposuction you are planning on is not a insignificant surgery.Are you driving or flying? Both have their pros and cons this close to your surgery.While normal ambulation is helpful during the recovery time a 5 mile hike seems ambitious and can be contra productive to your recovery and your long term result.I trust your Plastic Surgeon is Certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery and ideally a member of the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (denoting by membership as having met additional criteria and a focus on Cosmetic Plastic Surgery).My best wishes, R. A. Hardesty, MD, FACSDiplomate and Certified by the Am. Bd. of Plastic Surgerywwwimagineplasticsurgery.com4646 Brockton AveRiverside, Ca 92506(951) 686-7600

Thank you for your question. I usually tell my patients to wait at least 6 weeks to resume strenuous, high-cardio activities. However, it is best to ask your surgeon about this. Dr. Newall
