Your best results should be more apparent at 3 to 6 months. More extensive surgery will often require longer time to achieve final results. This is also a great time to consider your nutritional choices and exercise program.

A follow up visit with your plastic surgeon with these questions will give you an opportunity to further clarify what nutritional and exercise options are best for you.
