For women how have had brest reduction, how long did it take you to recover?

I want to get back to working out pretty soon.

You should slowly work your way back to working out after your incisions have closed, which can take about a month. So maybe a month and a half after surgery, depending on how well you recover...

Start taking short five minute walks, and work your way up to ten, fifteen, twenty, thirty minute walks.

Wear a good support bra for when you do work out.

a couple of weeks until I was comfortable and then after it still took several months for all the swelling to go down.
