Extensiveness of Activity After Vaser Liposuction?

There are a number of things that affect the time to ramp up activity after liposuction, but the technology (VASER, laser, etc) generally isn't one of them. Most significant is the amount that was removed and the number of areas, as well as your level of discomfort. Your surgeon should have given you specific advice on this.

Thank you for your question. VASER Lipo is safe and effective cosmetic procedure and the side effects are rare.
The side effects are typically swelling which peaks at 48 hours and then disappears step by step in 3 weeks and 6 weeks skin contradiction can be evident and this is usually completed by 14 weeks.But after a couple days after surgery, it is proper to walk around limited with exertional activities.

Some studies show that there is less injury to the body with Vaser than with traditional #liposuction. Recovery from Vaser Liposuction is based on the level of soreness and bruising experienced by the patient. But, it can vary among patients. As with traditional liposuction, there are no large incisions  or effect on the muscle and other underlying tissue. Therefore, #healing time may be less than anticipated by most. Therefore, Vaser patients may experience less #pain or discomfort, #swelling (#edema) and bruising post procedure due to the nature of the technique.  A quicker #recovery for a patient may be two to three weeks without any strenuous activity. This includes the short period of suggested rest of 12-24 hours soon following the procedure. #Exercise and activity are contingent on how the patient feels. Mild activity is not likely to hinder recovery or healing or create problems with recovery.  However, it is recommended to acquire your doctor's permission to do so. Once you begin exercising again, start gently and let your body tell you what it can tolerate. Don’t rush!After one to three days, you should be able to return to work. As I advise my patients, if your work keeps you sedentary, you may return whenever you feel up to it. If your work is strenuous, wait until your work activity does not cause any superficial pain. Some employers will modify a person’s job duties so they can back sooner, but without physical activity. Our office can provide our patients with a note stating they are not to engage in strenuous activity for a specified period of time. The note will not disclose what procedure they have underwent. Therefore, you may have to request a similar note from your surgeon if you are not independently employed. If you have concerns about your healing, or pain that you question to be unusual, it is important to call your plastic surgeon to discuss these further asked to be examined.

Light ambulation is actually preferred after liposuction to promote circulation in the lower extremities which is beneficial in reducing edema and minimizing venous stasis (which can result in a higher rate of blood clots).
In any event, it is important to discuss this with your plastic surgeon as they may have differing opinions

We tell our patients that they should be up and walking the day after surgery. However, they will recover faster if they take it easy for the first 48 hours. A good time to read, watch TV, and relax. On days 3 to 7, they can go back to work and do light excercise such as walking. After 3 weeks they can return to normal excercise routines letting pain and discomfort (If there is any) be their guide.

Most every plastic surgeon will agree that walking after liposuction is important. Not only does it decrease the risk of a blood clot forming in the legs, but it also helps you recover faster.
Moving around with light to moderate walking can help with the sore muscles, aches, and make you feel better faster. In terms of activity other than walking, it is really up to you and your plastic surgeon.
Please check with him/her about what they recommend postoperatively. The VASER part does not change your postoperative protocol from a standard liposuction protocol. Good luck!

After  a few days it is OK to move around quite a bit. I would probably limit exertional activities for a few more days, but general walking is good for you.
