How soon can I snow ski after abdomnioplasy?

Generally, for activities that involve a lot of abdominal movement and strength (like skiing), I have patients wait at least two months, but follow your own surgeon's advice. As with all activities that you resume, use common sense, and gradually ease back into them. For skiing, this might mean avoiding the double black diamond trails, staying on the greens and blues, and doing a half day only.

Thank you for your question. A personal exam and
consultation is always best.That said you need to discuss this with your surgeon. Depending on your healing progress, your surgeon can advise you as to the intensity of your skiing. Typically, two to three months should be adequate time, but, again, every patient is different.You do not want to overdue it.Be sure to consult a plastic surgeon who is certified by the
American Board of Plastic Surgery, experienced in your procedure, and who has
an excellent reputation in your community.
