After your liposuction procedure, recovery is typically quick, but it varies depending on the extent of fat removal and the treated areas. Most patients can return to work within 1-2 weeks, although it is recommended to avoid strenuous physical activities for at least 3-4 weeks.
Here are some important recovery tips:
- Compression Garments: Wearing compression garments helps reduce swelling and supports the healing process.
- Avoid Strenuous Activities: Avoid heavy lifting and intense exercise for 4-6 weeks to allow your body to heal properly.
- Swelling and Bruising: Some swelling, bruising, and discomfort are common but will subside over time.
