Will I be able to foreplay after Liposuction?

Question

I'm having liposuction on my outer thighs- will I be able to mess around about 3 weeks after I have lipo? Just as far as groping or getting intimate with my partner- we can play a bit rough at times, but I'm afraid of getting hurt?

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

I perform a significant number of liposuction procedures and most people are able to go back to the gym 10-14 days after the procedure and can also have sex at this time.  Each case is individual however.  Best, Dr. Emer.

Liposuction hurts. I am  not sure what is involved with your foreplay but if it hurts don't do it.  All areas suctioned will be tender to touch for a few weeks.

Thanks for your question. Liposuction has an easy recovery, so you should be fine. Please be careful and make sure you are fully healed.Best Wishes, Dr. Newall

Absolutely, I tell my patients that no restrictions after this kind of surgery. Because you are still sore, you have to make sure your in charge, and not your partner.

Andrew Jimerson, MD · Answer

You should play it by ear.  I generally recommend allowing 2 weeks for recovery.  Everyone is a little different.  My rule is - if it hurts, don't do it.
