The more you exercise after lipo, the quicker you see the great results!
I start patients walking right away the next day after liposuction and they can start strenuous exercising 1 week after the procedure. I do the tumescent technique local liposuction and the patients walk out after the surgery just fine. Good Luck.

Weight training after liposuction
Resuming exercise too soon after liposuciton can increase swelling (edma) and possibly even cause small areas of bleeding that produce firm hard bumpy areas. To minimize this exercise should be avoided for 3 weeks. I prefer a course of Pilates style exercise regimen to promote core strengthening.

Resuming Waist Training After waist Liposuction
I am not sure if you are asking WHEN you can safely resume waist training OR if waist training would be HELPFUL and augment the results of your waist liposuction.
In general, liposuction leaves hundreds of tunnels in the fat between the skin and the muscle. We want these to be collapsed BEFORE they fill with inflammation fluid and to stay collapsed. If you exercise too soon or do not wear a compression garment, the liposuction tunnels fill with fluid and you will wonder why you are not...

There should be no problem working out after you have healed from liposuction.
Abdominal liposuction is performed in a variety of ways. For this reason, you need to ask your specific liposuction surgeon when it is safe to return to vigorous exercise. I practice tumescent liposuction and generally patients return to their work outs in 2 to 5 days. However, many surgeons require their patients to wait a longer period of time before permitting a return to the gym. This time frame is based on experience with prior patients and how they have done...
