How long after blepharoplasty can I workout?

I will have blepharoplasty. How long after blepharoplasty can I workout?

I typically recommend 7-10 days because exercise increases your postoperative swelling and potential risk of bleeding. Sometimes with lower lid blepharoplasty patients may need to wait 10-14 days depending on what type they had done and if there's any residual swelling noted at their postoperative visit.
