Hi, pain and discomfort varies greatly between patients. For your guidance: #swelling and bruising may persist for up to 6-8 weekspain medications will be provided for first several days and as neededlight exercises such as walking, swimming, or riding a stationary bicycle is typically recommended after two or three weeks to minimize #adhesion between skin and deeper tissue circumferential pressure is usually recommended for 4-6 weeks then beyond 6 weeks you may switch to an exercise garment (Lycra or Spandex)You can be out in the sun when all the bruises have disappeared which usually takes about 2-3 weeks. It is recommended to cover up incisions / scars to protect from sun exposure because #sun bathing or #tanning can aggravate the #scars and can make them permanently dark. Don't forget to use a sunscreen with SPF of at least 30. There will be decreased sensation in the first few weeks or months after surgery and may result in accidental sunburn. Be careful. All in all, activity is largely dependent upon how the patient feels. It is mostly based on the level of soreness or bruising that you may experience. Be sure that you follow your surgeon's instructions as to caring for yourself during #recovery (such as wearing garments or lymphatic massage). If you have any concerns at all about your healing process, do not hesitate to contact your surgeon. Learn more about recovery for vaser liposuction on the web reference below.
