Q: How long until liposuction recovery is completely done?
A:
After liposuction, patients are usually able to accomplish their light household tasks within a few days to a week. Most return to work after one week if their job duties are not strenuous.
It takes about a month for patients to feel comfortable participating in sports and vigorous exercise.
