When can I exercise after a breast auto-augmentation?

We recommend that patients should avoid taking part in any strenuous physical activity until their 6 week follow up appointment. This is because vigorous movements can increase swelling which will slow down your recovery. If you previously exercised regularly then we advise that after 2 weeks you should be okay to resume light cardio activity such as walking on a treadmill. It is important that you avoid lifting your arms above your head for at least the first week of your procedure and not to carry any heavy objects for 6 weeks.
