Is a two month recovery time enough for lipo?

I usually tell my patients that they don't have any physical restrictions at 6 weeks after surgery. For you to be "fully recovered," it's going to be closer to about 3 months after surgery. That's for all of the bruising and swelling to go away, for you not to experience any more aches or pains, and for you to feel as good as you do right now. In your case, if you are getting just Liposuction 360, I would say that it is safe to begin basic training at that point. You may still have some swelling and twinges of pain here and there, but you will be more than 7 weeks post-op by the time basic training begins. Hope you get some fantastic results!

Good morning. Generally, six weeks is not enough time for a full recovery after 360 liposuction, especially before starting intensive military training like Army Basic Training, which demands high physical endurance, weightlifting, and sudden movements. You will feel better during that time, but swelling, tenderness, and weakness in the torso can persist for several months. It is best to postpone surgery or training, as ideally you should have at least four to six months before resuming strenuous physical activity to avoid complications or suboptimal results.
