6 week post op BBL: can I do HIIT workouts like Turo Fire?

Question

Will this up of workout gave a negative impact on my results?

Kenneth Hughes, MD · Answer

After six weeks of uncomplicated healing, you should be able to return to HIIT workouts.  I would take it easy initially to not overdo the very intense bouts of exercise. If you use weights in the gym, would recommend repetition with light, rather than heavy weights.  If you plan to include squats and lunges, you will increase muscle bulk and definition, which is probably a good thing if you are looking to achieve a more projected, lifted buttock.  However, just make sure that the body fat percentage is held in check or you will lose some of the fat.Kenneth Hughes, MD, Board Certified Plastic SurgeonLos Angeles, CA

Dear Tanisha17,most surgeons recommend restriction of vigorous activities for 4-6 weeks after surgery so you should be able to start with exercises. However, every plastic surgeon has his own postoperative protocol which he recommends to his patients. I would suggest you to discuss this with your plastic surgeon.

Thank you for your question. Recovery after liposuction and BBL is usually pretty straight forward.Patients can return to light activities almost immediately after surgery, normal activities 2 weeks after surgery, and vigorous exercise 4 weeks after surgery. Overall fat loss from a lot of cardio or from weight loss, will reduce the grafted fat to the buttocks but proportional to the rest of the body.

You need to discuss with your surgeon when he feels it is ok to start working out. Good luck..........
