Right now I am 8 weeks post mommy makeover. Everything is healing as expected. I had a wonderful board certified plastic surgeon who did an amazing job. In 2 more weeks I have a trip to Puerto Rico booked and want to go horseback riding and zip lining. I am just now able to use my stomach muscles minimally so I'm hoping it will strengthen a bit more in 3 weeks. It's a horse ride for an hour or 2 along the beach. Could I partake in these activities without damaging anything?

Answer: Mommy Makeover - Post Op Exercise Thank you for your question and congratulations on your recent surgery. Most patients are cleared to exercise by six weeks following a mommy makeover. It is best to have an in-person follow up examination with your plastic surgeon for recommendations regarding what you should and should not be doing at this time. Good luck in your recovery.

Answer: 8 week post Mommy Makeover. When can I go horseback riding? Thank you for your question. As long as you are healing as expected, at eight weeks there is typically no reason why you shouldn't be able to enjoy horseback riding and zip lining on your trip. You won't damage anything 8 weeks post-operatively. Double check with your own plastic surgeon to make sure everything looks good and follow their recommendations since they are most familiar with your surgery and healing process. Have fun on your vacation!
