How soon after a lip lift will I be able to resume strenuous cardio exercise such as running?

It all depends on the exact details of the procedure and how it’s done. Ask your surgeon for their opinion. The way I perform these procedures, the incision is closed very securely and downtime is minimal. Best wishes. 

I usually tell my patients they can do light exercise after the sutures come out at a week. Any strenuous exercise should wait two weeks to be on the safe side.
