Excercising after liposuction.

Talk about your activity level with your surgeon, he/she is in the best position to guide you. However, my general rule is that you can resume treadmill activity with a MPH that is equal to your week of recovery i.e. Week 1 = 1MPH, Week 2 = 2MPH, etc.

Lipsuction and exercise

In general, I allow my patients to return to the gym after liposuction in one to two weeks.  That is much earlier than other surgeries. But, I would ask your doctor.

Resuming exercising following liposuction

Recommendations for exercising following liposuction vary considerably among plastic surgeons and there is not necessarily a right or wrong answer. With this in mind, you can be active soon after surgery but in a mild way such as walking in moderation. I do not recommend heavy lifting, aerobics, running until 2.5 weeks following surgery.

Liposuction and physical activity

I reccomend my patient wait 1 week before resuming aerobic excercise and 2 weeks before resuming any weight training.  I think most importantly, you need to wear good compression and keep incisions clean.

Exercise after liposuction

The best liposuction results are in those who also lose some weight after surgery.  Never by gaining weight.  I let my patients begin to exercise at 2 weeks.
