How long should I wait after Liposuction surgery to get a tattoo?

kc_n
I got liposuction on my thighs and under butt and I'm looking at getting a tattoo and I wanted to know what is a good amount of time to wait before getting a tattoo. The tattoo will be on my ribs which isn't near the surgery site but I wanted to make sure
