After a rhinoplasty and fat grafting to the face, how long do you tell your patients to wait until they start working out (cardio and heavy weights) again?

Answer: Generally 4 weeks, but follow your surgeon's post-op instructions for the best results Every person's surgery and recovery is different, but in general you can resume light exercise after 2 weeks and moderate to vigorous exercise (muscle strengthening, cycling, jogging, etc.) after 4 weeks. Following the post-op instructions of your surgeon and asking your question during the follow-up appointment is the best practice for a full recovery.

Answer: Unrestricted physical activity may be resumed around three weeks following rhinoplasty surgery. We have seen nasal hemorrhage in our rhinoplasty patients anytime within 21 days postoperative rhinoplasty. Since you had a combined procedure, it may be best to ask your surgeon for specific advice. Hope this helps!
