Exercise After Liposuction?

im a male and 60 kgs. my PS said that i am a good candidate for lower abdominal lipo and all over etching. what i want to know is that do we still excercise that area after the operation is healed up?. will it make that area look better than not working out?. also since i am a candidate for lipo on my tummy does that mean that my whole body wont respond to exercise to tone up?. my doctor said the rest of my body seems fine. i just dont want to waste time doing something that will get me nowhere?
