I used to workout 5 days a week at Orangetheory fitness. I haven’t been since my vaser procedure (3 weeks ago). I want to get back to my workout routine but I’m not sure how. My doctor wants me to wear the foams for another week or so, obviously I’m still wearing my garment. Should I workout with the foam and garment on? Will I mess anything up if I go back I my workout routine to soon?

Answer: Vaser Liposuction Thanks for the question. I don't recommend Vaser Lipo patients to force their bodies for 2-4 weeks after surgery. Therefore, they can return to the gym after about 4 weeks. It would be good for their health to perform soft exercises to avoid risk. They should decide with their Board Certified Surgeon, weights and exercises they will perform. Then they should stick to their program with a coach in the gym. I wish you all the best.

Answer: Working out after VASER lipo Hello Tiemana1 Thank you for your question. I'd like to congratulate you for taking every opportunity to stay healthy! Having said that, I think you should take it easy at this time and give your body time to heal. Once cleared by your plastic surgeon to resume physical activity, I recommend you start gradually - perhaps 2-3 days a week or as tolerated then work up to your usual 5 days a week within the next 3-4 weeks. As for the foams and your garment, it's best to keep it on and follow the protocol given by your plastic surgeon as mild swelling is still expected at this time. Good luck! Best,Dr. Babak Moein
