Not sure what a mini lipo is but there is no medical downtime for liposuction. You will have some pain, bruising,swelling and tenderness but your physical activities don't necessarily need to be restricted.
Thank you for your question. The term "mini lipo" is new to me. I'm assuming it is a short, touch up type of liposuction performed in the office under local anesthesia. Be very careful to be sure that this is the best procedure for you. Surgeons or even non surgeons in some cases, may market "mini" this or "lunch time" that, to imply it is a minor procedure with a short recovery time. This may not be what you need and you may be disappointed. Consultation with a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon is recommended. We are held to an ethical standard to recommend what is best for you, not to sell a procedure that will benefit the surgeon. Be sure to thoroughly vet your surgeon. If something doesn't seem right, look elsewhere. There are plenty of ethical Plastic surgeons in your area. Unfortunately, there are some charlatans as well.Be vigilant!
