After undergoing plastic surgery, the timeline for reintroducing physical exercise and activities may vary depending on the specific procedure and your individual healing process. It is important to follow your surgeon’s post-operative instructions, but as a general guideline, light activities such as walking can typically be resumed within a few days to a week. However, it is crucial to avoid strenuous exercises and movements that strain the surgical area during the initial recovery phase. Your surgeon will provide specific recommendations on when you can gradually increase your activity level and which exercises or movements to avoid to ensure optimal healing and minimize the risk of complications.
