After liposuction surgery,you should have to take 2 months for relax. I am damn sure that after 2 month,you will not feel any type of pain and would happy with your successful results.

After a liposuction surgery it is critical for you to take proper care of yourself and follow your liposuction surgery doctor's instructions as well as all guidelines provided by the medical staff. Following these instructions after liposuction surgery will assure a quicker and easier recovery. Being disciplined about post-operative care and adopting healthier habits will optimize your liposuction results, long-term. For more details contact our expert Dr. Farella. http://www.drfarella.com/

You can't drive w/ anesthesia but after that it's up to your pain threshold. Ask your doctor to be certain.
